There is now Juno to Jupiter to add on. A bit of a RIP thread sadly. Vangelis didn't score the Blade Runner sequel but it turned out to be a superb film nevertheless under the sure footed guidance of Denis Villeneuve

Every era of Vangelis was great. I voted for the 1980s due to Blade Runner's film music, which is his finest hour regarding his film music opus, and due to "See You Later," which is my personal favourite studio album by Vangelis. It's an underrated Vangelis album, maybe due to the fact that it was never released in the United States.

My favourite Vangelis works are the two collaborations he did with Irene Papas - 'Odes' (1979), and 'Rapsodies' (1986). Irene's theatrical/operatic style vocals gives the stunning music of Vangelis oomph and passion like no-one else could.

I enjoy that album a lot but it maybe doesn't always go down that well with those who expect a certain style from Vangelis. This has a more modern 'post punk' approach but I love Multi Track Suggestion (with Vangelis vocals!) and the title track ft Jon Anderson. Memories Of Green made it's way onto the Blade Runner s/t. 80's was a sold decade for Vangelis. Mask is a masterpeice as is Soil Festivities. Direct was almost an out and out prog album and also a masterpeice. Then there is the wonderful Antarctica. It's all pretty brilliant. I remember even J M Jarre commenting how much he liked Vangelis music at the time (around 1985). Praise from your peers is always a big thing.

Yep both are great and sold very well in Greece drawing upon traditional Greek folk music.
