One of the most brilliantly weird things I've ever heard. Demis Roussos used to be on UK TV a lot in the 70s singing "Forever and Ever" or whatever that God-awful song was, I never imagined he'd been on an album like this.
 
He was the lead singer in Aphrodite's Child!
 
"It's 5 o'clock" is another one of their "hits".

He was also the bass player! Due to the heavier instrumental approach compared to their earlier albums Roussos only gets to sing lead vocal on 3 tracks on 666.Drummer Lucas Sideras actually sings lead on a couple and Irene Papas obviously features on 'infinity'.

An absolute masterpiece in my opinion (despite its flaws). Demis Roussos' performance on "The Four Horsemen" might well be my favorite vocal performance by any singer, EVER.
