Album of great long-form jams by Vangelis recorded shortly after the break-up of Aphrodite's Child with a pick-up studio crew organized by master prog-rock mover-and-shaker Giorgio Gomelsky (Magma and Gong) and then released without Vangelis' approval alongside HYPOTHESIS, an album of material culled from the same sessions and very similar but for a misguided sci-fi themed cover that pales in comparison to this amazing image of a Lovecraftian nightmare emerging from the seething ocean. Check it out. It includes an Aphrodite's Child cut only recently unearthed a few years ago on one single compilation.
Info about a different incarnation here.
My initial search today into Vangelis-related blog-posts turned up this amazing entry that purports the numerological relevance of a bunch of arbitrary, random digits on Vangelis' final release with Aphrodite's Child, 666. Turns out it was an Illuminati conspiracy the whole time.
Further fascinating numerological malarkey per Kubrick's THE SHINING here and a few days earlier by the same fellow here.
I'd hate to have to be the one to explain to him how PAL conversion rates and the 25-minute-shorter UK cut would radically change all of these research findings...
