Vangelis Tames the Wild Rockers


It's no secret Phos was one of the finest progressive rock albums produced after Aphrodites Child parted ways. Including Vangelis on keyboards was a stroke of genius and most folks consider the result of this collaboration the best offering from Socrates Drank the Conium. Vangelis mellowed the sound and though he co-authored only one track on the record his influence is heard throughout the  recording. My copy and my rip are from the US version on Peters International Cosmos. (label = Phonogram). This is a modified rip and the tracks are stretched a bit length-wise. It you like your tunes longish, this is your rip.
