Vangelis φρικ-άουτ gem



Ασύλληπτο φρικ-άουτ του Βαγγέλη με τίτλο The Dragon. Είχαν κάτι μανούρες με την δισκογραφική τους τότε - το 1978 - και σταμάτησαν την εκτύπωση του δίσκου. Ως εκ τούτου θεωρείται ανεπίσημη κυκλοφορία. Παρ'όλα αυτά πρόλαβαν και βγήκαν μερικές κόπιες στην αγορά οι οποίες φυσικά εξαντλήθηκαν. Από τότε έπαιξαν κάτι σάπιες επανεκδόσεις αποδώ και αποκεί αλλά είναι out of print εδώ και χρόνια. Μουσικά ο δίσκος είναι τρελλό φαρ-άουτ τζαμάρισμα - 3 μεγάάάλης διάρκειας κομμάτια έχει όλα και όλα.

Θανάση μου σου λέω ο δίσκος δεν υπάρχει!!! Δεν υπάρχει ρεσυ!!!

Υ.Γ.: Θανάση το τελευταίο κομμάτι είναι ωδή στη γεμιστή τομάτα. Είναι με κιμά όμως. Μην το ακούσεις γιατί έχεις και το στομάχι σου.

  2. Δεν άκουσα τον δίσκο του Βαγγελάκη, αλλά τα πιο freak out του Ντέμη είναι νομίζω τα On the Greek side of my mind (1971) και My only Fascination (1974), κάπου νόμιζα ότι είχα στείλει σχετικό mail αλλά δεν το βρίσκω. Είδες τι χρήσιμο που είναι το μπλόγκι;

    Προτείνω πάντως ανάγνωση των trivia από το βικιλήμμα.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demis_Roussos

    Selecta:

    "After Aphrodite's Child disbanding, Roussos continued to record sporadically with former bandmate Vangelis. In 1970 the two released Sex Power (although the album has also been disputably credited to Aphrodite's Child), also recording the 1977 album Magic together. Their most successful collaboration was "Race to the End", a vocal adaptation of the musical theme from the Oscar winning film Chariots of Fire, and also sung in Spanish as "Tu Libertad", whilst Roussos also guested on the soundtrack to Blade Runner (1982).The song was entitled 'Tales of the Future'

    For years Roussos struggled with his weight. In June 1980 he weighed 147kg. In June 1980 he began a diet in which he lost in 50kg in 10 months[1]. In 1982, he co-authored the book 'A Question of Weight' with his close friend Veronique Skawinska in which he dealt candidly with his struggles with obesity. Roussos suffered a fallow period during the 1980s in terms of hits and his output dried up as he battled clinical depression.

    He was one of the passengers on TWA Flight 847 that was hijacked on June 14, 1985. Famously the hijackers even celebrated his birthday with him as they were impressed by having a man who remained a big celebrity in southern Europe as a hostage. Sensing a new lease of life, Demis embarked on a "comeback" with the LP Time, which achieved a fair amount of acclaim and a minor hit song (popular in the discotheques) with "Dance of Love".
    His influence in Indian film music industry was also seen. Some of his songs were copied straightaway by the Indian music directors. To mention some , "Lovely Lady of Arcadia" was used in songs "Tumhe chede hawa chanchal (Salami)" and "Yun hi kat jayega safar saath chalne say (Hum Hai Rahi Pyaar Kay)". "You are my only fascination" song was rehashed and made as "Tumse thoda sa main dooor hooon (Pyar Ka Saaya)". The song "Mehbooba Mehbooba" (Sholay) is also said to be based on his song "Say You Love Me"."
