While reading a book on prog rock, I cracked up at this Vangelis anecdote:

JON ANDERSON WAS COPING with the separation from Yes. In short order he sought out Vangelis, whom he warmly remembered trying to court for the band when Wakeman originally quit. “I saw photographs of him playing four or five keyboards at the same time, and laser beams behind him,” Anderson would recall. “It was unbelievable. I had to meet this guy.” When he did, Vangelis greeted the singer in “a kaftan way down to the floor and a big bow and arrow around his shoulders and arrows coming out of a quiver,” displaying archery before he got down to the music.

Anyone else watch Prime Rocks "Sgt Pepper's Musical Revolution" last night?

It was a fascinating insight into the recording and production techniques used in what was a ground-breaking album at the time.

Didn't see it but did you see the Neil Young one? For serious fans only I think

Bovidae

@jegga I'm not a Neil Young fan. I only watch the shows that are of interest to me.

Tim

@jegga Seriously though, Vangelis was pretty good.

jegga

@Bovidae sweet then I can say it was fucking awful without offending you.

@Tim I only really know him from the Chariots of fire album and the soundtrack to the Columbus film. They were both pretty good, not surprised to hear he's a bit eccentric though
