Aphrodite's Child - 666 super deluxe edition!

Coming in November:

My only worries are regarding the omission of the bonkers Infinity from the tracklisting, hopefully just a misprint, and the fact that Vangelis oversaw the remasters himself and when he did that with his other albums he added unnecessary reverb throughout. But it does feature the amazing 1974 Greek mix on CD for the first time.

Saw this on SHF. I thought the Greek mix was already reissued on vinyl, but I guess it's been the same OG mix all along. Since Seth's review I've been curious to hear it. Not sure I need the box, but glad stuff like this is getting reissued.

Did you ever see this live footage of 'End Of The World'?

Yes, it's great. Also love this clip:

Either a promotional film or an extract from a movie. If it's the latter I really want to see the rest and find out how the lady who walks out in apparent disgust towards the end found herself in that church at that time.

Wonderful! I hadn't seen that one. Now I'll be trying to find out if it IS from a film ;-)

Probably just wishful thinking on my part, even if it does look quite cinematic. Any movie where somebody goes into a church and randomly finds Aphrodite's Child performing in there would automatically be a favourite of mine.

"Infinity" is listed as track 5 on Disc 2 - just the symbol though. Maybe easy to overlook.
