Description:

Sony Music Progressive Rock Sijacket Collection Vangelis Edition (2)Sony Music is proud to reissue its catalog of Progressive Rock albums in paper jacket and high quality Blu-spec CD2 format in this fan-favorite collection series. The series has been well received by the fans with each country-specific release of not only British Rock but also European Rock, American Rock, and other Progressive Rock albums. This time, as an extra edition, five works left to RCA and ARISTA are released in memory of Vangelis, who passed away suddenly in May this year (2022). Vangelis, born in 1943, was a Greek composer and a leading figure in synth music. He has composed music for numerous films, including "The Flame Runner" and "Blade Runner," and has established himself as a master of soundtracks. This work marks the first time Vangelis turned his attention to space as a concept theme. It is a jazzy, spontaneous masterpiece that intersects with cutting synths and the intense rhythms that Vangelis himself taps. It reached #18 on the UK Albums Chart.Includes well-known Japanese songs such as "Pulstar" and "Alpha". 1976 album.
