Aphrodite's Child

666

£79.99

Released: 8th November 2024. '666' is one of the most original progressive rock albums of all time. Composed by the late maestro Vangelis, with lyrics written by Costas Ferris, it is a conceptual double album that was hailed upon its release as 'a work of stunning complexity and originality' and is the crowning moment in the career of Aphrodite's Child. This box set contains audio remastered versions of the original album mix and the rare 1974 Greek LP version (which featured considerably different mixes to the original LP release), along with a Bluray disc featuring 96 kHz/24-bit Atmos & 5.1 up mixes and stereo mix, all of which were overseen by Vangelis. The disc also features the bonus video content of a 28-minute episode of the French television show Discorama from June 1972 featuring Vangelis talking about the album (with English subtitles added).
