Aphrodite's Child 666 - 1st - VG UK 2-LP vinyl record set (Double LP Album)
|
| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
The album itself is a conceptual adaption of Biblical passages from John 13-18, and is extremely experimental in both its lyrical content and composition. The band used the help of an outside writer, Costa's Ferris, to create this monumental record. While combining psychedelic and prog rock, the album also incorporates ethnic instruments, choral chanting, and spoken word recitiations. Including a guest appearance on 'Infinity' from Greek Actress Irene Papas.
Vangelis himself as stated that the album was apparently created under the influence of Sahlep, a Turkish flour which is consumed in beverages or deserts. This, coupled with the album bearing the 'Number Of The Beast' as the album title, was misinterpreted by fundamentalist Christians as perhaps a drug, a demon, or even a black magic sect, not infact a Turkish delicacy.
The UK-printed sleeve is graded Very Good with some light wear to each corner, creasing to the spine, some minor scuffing along the opening edge and a light crease to one corner - there are no tears, splits or writing. Also included are two 'Plastic bags can be dangerous' poly-lined 'Swirl' inners.
The vinyl is also graded Very Good with spindle wear to the labels and some visible hairline scratches/marks - most prominent on Side D. The vinyl has been professionally cleaned and when playtested surface noise/'pops/clicks' etc were minimal and overall sounded fantastic - played loud of course!
