Early and mid-70s would be hard to reproduce because it was
improvised: you can't ever go back, and in a way it's wrong to try to.

I don't think they've got the old equipment any more.  It was
temperamental, went out if tune all the time, and broke down
regularly.  Pete Namlook bought Klaus Schulze's Big Moog, and I think
Klaus was glad to be rid of it.

I saw the TD Phaedra anniversary concert about a decade ago and it was
all done on soft synths.  That worked pretty well, but it's never
exactly the same.

Andrew.
