My favourite by him. One of my (many) all time favourite albums. Highly reccomended. Movements 1,5,8, and 9 are amazing. The ones in between are great too. |

i love LOVE LOVE vangelis.....did i mention i love this guys moosique! =0) i have NOT heard this tho, and so i guess i have some MORE stuff of his to check out. my favourite has to be the soundtrack for the move Antarctica.....check that out while watching the aurora borealis =0) |

yeah Antarctica is very nice..but imho, El Greco is his masterpiece, it is amazingly beautiful and surreal, very atmospheric, and even very "tasteful" somehow.. he takes his time with it, it's slow and relaxing, also quite long...and did i mention beautiful? I really reccommend you give it a listen, download it, then buy it if you find out that you agree with me... |

I really like the Blade Runner soundtrack, it's great to put on as background music. There are lots more Vangelis I like but I can't remember them right now... |

i'll just BUY it, i love his work i can't imagine i won't LOVE this one. sometimes you get off track and forget about those GREAT composers that you've always loved...like Vangelis.....i'm glad you reminded me and I'll buy El Greco! =0) the names reminds me of anthony quinn for some reason.....ehhehe |
||||||||

ehhehe......a famous actor and quite a good artist....i believe he passed away, anyway eventhough he wasn't GREEK he played in the famous movie called Zorba the Greek! so thats why that name reminded me of him....and of course the ARTIST El Greco....i wonder if thats what the album is named after? anyway here's a for Quinn, i'm sure you'll recognize him, he's been in a TON of movies! |

yes the album is inspired by El Greco and his paintings ... one of of his works is the cover for the album... |

you just have to click the "more information" or something button there... sometimes an artist has too many releases and so they aren't all shown on the main page there... if you get what I mean... :) |

vangelis sucks arse |

well i bought the album based on your suggestion and can only say i agree whole heartedly with your assessment! WOW.......this is beautiful....thanks for bringing this CD to my attention, i can't thank you enough. NOW my next CD of Vangelis is music from the movie 'The Bounty' which i heard again recently and found to be MOST amazing.....haunting...etc...!!! yippee! good call |
||||||||

I think I'd like Vangelis if I were ever to buy a cd of his... the blade runner soundtrack was nice, from what I heard watching the movie... but my next cd purchase will be The Neverending Story soundtrack... you can laugh at my all you like, but that music is fantastic... and it will be mine before I leave the netherlands!! :) I had three cds in mind that I HAD to buy here... Hi Scores (which I bought already), Amber (already bought) and The Neverending Story soundtrack... so, I will hunt that bad boy down, and it will be mine! :) |

when you get back home you can order it for $12 US.. it's a common cd here (so is Amber) |

oh yeah, I had the MP3's back home... but I need the actual thing... the music really is excellent... nothing takes me back to my childhood, and makes me feel all happy and stuff like that music... good stuff... I was in this little fantasy shop the other day, and they had a bunch of cds there... they had the lord of the rings soundtracks and stuff, and the neverending story movie, but no sountrack... so, close but no cigar... and I'm not really a big fan of ordering... I guess I'm old fashioned in the sense that I like to go into a store, and buy it there... I do order if I have to, and I know I can get it online easily... but I want to see it in a record shop... there's nothing like it... when you're searching for a cd for ages, and finally find it... I almost screamed with joy when I found Hi Scores... it was a defining moment for me! Ok, maybe a bit of exaggeration there... but it was really nice to see it there! :) |
