Ricochet is the first live album and seventh album overall by German electronic music group Tangerine Dream, released in 1975. It consists of two side-long compositions mixed from recordings of the UK and France portions of their August–October 1975 European Tour.

Featuring the early and memorable lineup of Chris Franke, Edgar Froese, and Peter Baumann, Ricochet continuously evolves to the next plateau of pulsing experimentation without getting lost or over-indulgent like other bands of the genre. This album finds the three at a time when they knew exactly what they were doing; rocking without the drums, and looking over their shoulder to make sure the audience was still enjoying themselves. For the number of albums and soundtracks this band has put out (over 50!), most fans hold onto this one because it is so energetic and timeless.

Ricochet Virgin 2019. It seems that this album is a perfect in-between from Rubycon to Stratosfear, featuring both the spacey, full, and sometimes empty atmosphere in addition to the steady beats that are more prominent on their later works.

Ricochet was the first live album released by Tangerine Dream, although the term Live is loose. A number of live performances from that 1975 tour serve as the basis for the album, mainly from Salle Des Fetes De Talence, Bordeaux (September 20th 1975) and Fairfield Halls, Croydon (October 23th 1975). You can listen to the original Croydon set, the basis for Ricochet Part 1, and hear the difference between the original live and final studio version. Chris Franke: The concerts were much too long to use in one context.
