Free Music Notes for The City

Free Music Review: Grossly under-rated
Hit: 5 Stars

Upon reading the reviews for this particular album I was astonished at how poorly they compare to other albums, particularly since this album ranks first (tied with L'Apocalypse and Bladerunner) in my opinion, possibly even surpassing Bladerunner.

I think that the music of Vangelis cannot be sampled to extract one hit because it flows in a continuum. So far in my experience, no album of Vangelis can be appreciated unless listened to, from its beginning to its completion. And in this regard THE CITY is phenomenal. Listening to this album with surround sound literally takes the listener for a joyride through a city. But this joyride is classic Vangelis in nature. It is deep, mysterious, with class, flowing with human passion and exhuberance.

I believe that no artist has come to express the human thirst for the unknown, for the mystical, for the universe as well as this pioneer of keyboarding music. He is simply genial, beyond words .... in fact, I already wrote too much ... useless .... listen to the album (from the beginning to the end) and you will convince yourself of all I have said!

I hope you will enjoy it at least half as much as I have for the last 3 years.
