[@Ant-mo1gl]

At the beginning I thought this "extended intro" might be way too much, but it became my favorite version and I have returned here like a thousand times. Now I think this intro just puts you in the right mood for what is coming (And when the lamb...). It is great, thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@snowhiterover]

It take a few minutes for the weed to kick in....so the intro accounts for the individual lag between all listeners.

[@PetraKann]

Agree…. Great Greek band. Never realised Demis Roussos could play bass. And Vangelis is a super talent. Loukas Sideras on drums. Aphrodite’s Child also has guitar solos by Silver Koulouris. Very underrated band that basically emerged during the fascist military junta in Greece that was supported by the US

[@mauriciodossantosnasciment9527]

Essa obra prima foi foi ouvida em 1972 pela primeira vez por mim, está sendo ouvida hoje 2022 por mim, e será ouvida pela eternidade por todos os homens que amem músicas magistrais!! RIP Vangelis!!

Grandioses Studio Aufnahme Verfahren. Ultra brilianter Studio Album Sound. Zu dieser Zeit einzigartig. Und eines der besten Gitarren Solos auf dieser Welt. So einen emotionalen Gitarristen hört man heute nicht mehr. Schlagzeuger macht auch Spaß. Gesang sowieso👌👍

[@01sapphireGTS]

I love the "driving pace" and the great guitar work/effects. It has some Maggot Brain aspects to it, in all the best ways. I love psychedelic rock for the effects.

[@Ring0fSaturn]

The structure of this song is so wonderfully unusual: five minutes of ambient chimes, three minutes of powerful verse chorus, then three minutes of rocking guitar. I'm reminded of Brian Eno's Baby's On Fire with wonderfully lengthy guitar work by Robert Fripp. Maggot Brain is of the same structure. All are great songs from a very experimental time.

Les plafonds sont peints, le mobilier est d’un luxe indescriptible et le marbre veiné des tables reflète l’évanescente sérénité de l’endroit ! Tout y est rigide, jusqu’au temps qui s’écoule derrière les lambris, comme aux aguets. Orgue rampant, frémissement des cymbales & des clochettes ..
