This cheap collection feates songs from progressive-rocker Vangelis's RCA period, including synth tunes "Pulstar" and "Alpha." Long before the soundtrack to CHARIOTS OF FIRE became an international commercial success, the career of Evangelos Odyssey Papathanassiou, aka Vangelis, was well underway. In the early 1960s, the musician helped form the group Formynx, the most popular Greek band of its day, and then prog-rockers Aphrodite's Child. Later, he moved to London and even briefly considered joining Yes before pursuing a solo career. THE BEST OF VANGELIS assembles eight tracks from this phase, songs taken from ALBEDO 0.39, SPIRAL, and COSMOS, among others. The songs range from the hyperactive "Bacchanale" to the intergalactic majesty of "Spiral," and Vangelis's starry-eyed, Disney-esque duet with Jon Anderson of Yes, "So Long Ago, So Clear."
