Description:Aphrodite's Child last album 666 is a masterpiece and their most critically acclaimed album. It took more than a year to finish, and by the time it was released, in 1972, the band had already split up. The psychedelic atmosphere of their early work in combination with their search through new music territories are done well. This true classic became recognized as one of the most important efforts in early progressive rock. The three band members showing their variety and the little twists they putted In the songs. Greek influences playing an important role in the long jams and greater use of electronic keyboards, studio experimentation and expanded instrumentation. 666 is an odyssey through the realms of progressive music and one where all their talents ultimately blended together. The Greek band Aphrodite's Child was an important name in the psychedelic and progressive movement. They recorded three albums and after they disbanded in 1972 the band members Vangelis Papathanassiou and Demis Roussos started an successful solo career. -

"6 6 6" is a groundbreaking concept album by the Greek progressive rock band Aphrodite's Child, released in CD format by Vertigo. Originally launched in 1972, this double album is widely regarded as one of the most ambitious and influential works in progressive and psychedelic rock history. Inspired by the Book of Revelation, "6 6 6" blends haunting melodies, experimental soundscapes, and poetic lyrics to create an immersive musical journey. The band's lineup featured Vangelis (later renowned for his Oscar-winning film scores), Demis Roussos (who went on to enjoy international solo success), and Loukas Sideras. Their innovative approach set new standards for concept albums worldwide. Aphrodite's Child achieved significant acclaim with hits like "Rain and Tears," but it was "6 6 6" that cemented their legacy as pioneers of art-rock experimentation. The album has since become a cult classic among collectors and music enthusiasts. Vertigo Records, established in the late '60s under Philips Records, became synonymous with cutting-edge progressive rock releases from artists such as Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep, and Gentle Giant. Known for its iconic swirling label design and commitment to artistic freedom, Vertigo played a crucial role in shaping the landscape of modern rock music.

A double conceptual experimental album by Greek psychedelic/progressive rock band Aphrodite's Child. Vangelis, Roussos, and their colleagues created a fantastic release. For me, one of the strongest musical shocks.
