Mid-70s Vangelis from his London base at the time, gradually working his way from progressive rock and jazz fusion-infused electronic music to purer electronica over the years that followed. The tracklist of the roughly space-themed Albedo 0.39 has a nice mix of accessible tunes that would become signature pieces for Vangelis (Pulstar, Alpha), lengthy electronic prog wig-outs (Main Sequence and Nucleogenesis), and ingenious/slightly odd connecting tracks in between. Few more Vangelis albums to come, been trying to fill some gaps in my listening to him that I haven't dipped in to in years.

Thanks for the Vangelis.
ReplyDeleteMuchas gracias, el "Opera Sauvage" no lo tenía.
ReplyDeleteThis was my first Vangelis purchase in 1977 (I think) - mainly because I loved Pulstar. Thank you for bringing back the memories.
