Vangelis - Opera Sauvage
In the late 70s Vangelis was becoming quite prolific. This is an overlooked album that he recorded in 1979. It features Jon Anderson guesting on harp. It's a refined sound that pre-dates new age. Not a lot of pyrotechnic keyboards here - it has mor...

Fantastic price for this gatefold Japanese mini-LP sleeve reissue of the controversial album from the Greek keyboard master. Beauborg was released in 1978.

This is this the 24bit K2 mastered edition. Grab it while they are available cheap!

This does not sound like any other Vangelis album. It's by far his most aharmonic and challenging. My favorite of his by a light year at least. If you're big into Klaus S. and find the electronica "soundtrack" practitioners a bit too syrupy, I think you NEED this. How it came out of Vangelis (particularly in '78 when everybody who had been "on the fence" was totally selling-out) I'll never know... but I don't care. It's his statement that he could indeed command the strange and challenging. And BTW... GORGEOUS artwork by itself makes this minisleeve issue a s----in' gift!
