Personnel: Irene Papas (vocals); Stathis Zalidis, Sotiris Zalidis (background vocals). Recording information: Nemo STudios, London, England (1978). Photographers: Stathis Zalidis; Veronique Skawinska. Arranger: Vangelis. Odes features the most inspired collaboration imaginable. It is a collection of compositions by Vangelis with vocals by the great operatic singer Irene Papas. The vocals, in Greek, become an important instrument of Vangelis' sound design. He has a knack for knowing when to push the instrumental and when to allow Papas' vocals to dominate -- even to the point of some a cappella renderings. Papas is as sharp as ever; Vangelis is always right there. The atmospheres are strong and the soundscapes are dramatic and dynamic. This hard-to-get classic is essential. It is worth every effort to procure it. The only logical comparisons are Vas, Sheila Chandra, Lisa Gerrard, Natacha Atlas, and Yungchen Lhamo. ~ Jim Brenholts
