Description
CD reissue. The Gift is a 76+ minutes 'greatest hits' starting in 1975 with 'Heaven and Hell', featuring Vangelis' first collaboration with Jon Anderson, the transcendent ballad 'So Long Ago, So Clear', and also adds an excerpt from the lengthy original 'Heaven and Hell Part II'. Music from 'Albedo 0.39' (1976) was featured extensively in the TV series 'Cosmos', and the 'Gift' presents the theme from the series, plus the outstanding tracks 'Pulstar' and 'Alpha'. Having had a career in music spanning over 50 years and having composed and performed more than 50 albums, Vangelis is considered to be one of the most important figures in the history of progressive music, electronic music and soundtracks.
