Well, here is my latest Vangelis discography. In the past few months,
|
||
|
Vangelis hasn't released any new music, but his old companies (RCA and
|
||
|
Polydor) have released some of his music that was previously unreleased or
|
||
|
released in a new format. Albedo 0.39, Heaven and Hell and See You Later were
|
||
|
all re-released in CD format. A CD single of Chariots of Fire was released.
|
||
|
And Polydor released (or will release, depending when and where you read this)
|
||
|
Themes, an album that contains some unreleased music with alot of previously
|
||
|
released music.
|
||
|
I haven't heard anything about the next orginal release in the "Direct
|
||
|
series" that the Arista CD cover spoke of. Anyone else know anything?
|
||
|
Well, the discography follows. The last release was version 2.1, made in
|
||
|
Late April I believe. Please send me replies if you have any additions or see
|
||
|
any errors. Thank you.
