Fotografia: Paul WakefieldThose used to Vangelis' later and lighter
synthesized outings may not be quite ready for this dark, thundering
album. While it did provide us with the theme music for the TV series
Cosmos and bring Jon Anderson into partnership with Vangelis (following
an abortive approach to Vangelis joining Yes) on "So Long Ago, So
Clear", it also served up massed Gothic choirs and a musical depiction
of all the tortures of the damned, with an impressive amount of
string-driven shrieking. Even so, it's a brilliant piece of work that
should not be absent from any Vangelis collection. |
