This famous Paris-located Greek band was formed in 1967 by keyboard wizard Vangelis Papathanassiou and vocalist/bassist Demis Roussos and released two decent pop/psychedelic albums (''End of the world'' in 1967 and ''It's five o'clock'' in 1969) before turning to a more progressive sound with the concept double LP ''666'' in 1972 (released after the band called it off).Based on the book of Apocalypse,the album offers many moments of pure experimentation and emotional inspiration.Blending pop rock with symphonic prog,greek folk tunes and byzantine vocals,lots of spoken parts and tons of changing moods,''666'' is a memorable album with a unique sound and great vocal lines by Demis Roussos.A really obscure and uncomparable release at the dawn of progressive rock!
