I think I can consider myself a Vangelis fan, but an album containing a rubbish like "Suffucation" is too much for me. I consider it the worst Vangelis release. The thing which deserves something is the original version of "Memories of Green". My personal opinions, anyway.
I don't know the other album so no vote.

100% agreed with you re Suffucation. I'm always skipped that awful one. However, the rest of the album is brilliant 80s Prog in my opinion.

Almost any other Vangelis album would have gotten my vote, but See You Later is one of my least favorite of his. Broadcasting From Home, however, is PCO at their most brilliant and certainly deserves all the support it has been getting.

I love See You Later mostly of all of Vangelis 80s LPsbecause it's full of suprises. For example Not A Beat - All of It. Real 80s Prog indeed. Yea, Suffocation is that "awful" prog, I'm not a fan of it, but it's musically perfect track. By the way, that "awful prog" is actually the stuff which fullfiled Rick Wakeman' solocatalogue almost to the top; of course, in Wakeman's own style and also musically perfect, but anyway that's why I'm not a fan of his solo output.
