Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: The best way to sample vangelis Comment: I have four musicians that I look out for Mike Oldfield Vangelis J.M.J and terry Oldfield Vangelis comes a quality second and In my view compilations are the best way to listen to Vangelis . The reason being that he can make some really good music but in the full albums that I have bought I have not been totally pleased, do not get me wrong there is some brilliant music on all the albums I own of Vangelis but also some dull music as well. This one has the best from a collection of his work and it shows his versatility and different styles he has It may even prompt you to check out some of the albums that the music has been taken from I have and bought albums because of tracks on this album. There are two tracks that are ordinary for Vangelis track nine theme from Cavafy and track eighteen State of Independence. The rest are a good indication of Vangelis. Celtic Dawn is a new one for me it's a good little catchy tune and I look forward to it coming up when I play the c.d.. Conquest of Paradise is the reason I bought this c.d. I first heard it at a rugby match (played wen the home team came onto the pitch) and searched for it High and low then found it on this c.d. I have now bought the sound track. Apart from track nine and eighteen this is a very good buy and a very good indication of Vangelis and his diversity in music. Buy this get your headphones on and drift away in your own little world for about seventy minuets (total chill out) Customer Rating: Summary: Better than expected Comment: I only realy brought this album for one tune 'chariots of fire' but after listening to it all the way through its a great stress busting album its a album that just chills you out from the first to the last track. Its a album you can put on put your feet up to and not have a care in the world ideal for all those stress heads out there who i happen to be amoung its a must buy. Customer Rating: Summary: An excellent collection Comment: I'm very fond of this album, I've had it for a few years now. I find the best time to listen to this album is during momments of stress. For me this is a welcome antidote. Very relaxing and calming. I like the combination of songs, classic tracks and new ones. An overall good ablum, highly recomended to anyone who often needs time to relax. Customer Rating: Summary: Some good tracks Comment: Good albumn. Im new to Vangelis but liked the snippets id heard. I wasnt completely into his stuff, but some very potent tracks here none the less. Customer Rating: Summary: More of a trek than an odyssey Comment: An odyssey is hard work, and this album most definitely isn't. I'd never heard of Vangelis before I saw this advertised (I know, I know!), but many of the tunes were familiar. It is very easy, very relaxing listening. Bung it on the hi-fi and lay down on the sofa with a good book and a nice glass of malt. In summary, undemanding, but none the worse for that. More Reviews
