Reprise: 1990-99
With a career that now spans three complete decades, Oscar-winning composer Vangelis casts a look back at the-decade-that-was with this latest Atlantic release, REPRISE. Having long since earned legendary status with his scores to Chariots of Fire and Blade Runner, the contemporary music giant has assembled a collection of best-loved tracks as culled from his VOICES, THE CITY, 1492, BLADE RUNNER (issued in 1994 in conjunction with the Ridley Scott "Director's Cut" release), EL GRECO, and OCEANIC releases. With its pair of previously unreleased tracks - one of which comes from the composer's score to 1992's Bitter Moon - the CD-only set is sure to be of great interest to longtime fans. Indeed, REPRISE is a remarkable document to the vision and aristry of Vangelis during what has been one of his most dynamic and prolific periods.
