I also seem to recall he was with that red-haired beauty, Rula Lenska, who used to star in some all female cast series. I was/am not aware of any wife beating stories.

Speaking about their marriage of 11 years, he confessed he had slapped and punched her twice, but added: 'She certainly wasn't a beaten wife, she was hit and that's different.'

Ronnie Sinclair Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Vangelis, aged 79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erithacus Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Devastated that Vangelis has gone. He was an amazing composer and creator of such distinctive soundscapes. Having worked with French movie-maker Frédéric Rossif in the 1970s he went to London and then had perhaps his best-known work in the film Chariots of Fire in the early 1980s. Another piece was 'Heaven and Hell', used as the title theme for Professor Carl Sagan's epic TV series Cosmos. He also enjoyed UK chart success in partnership with Jon Anderson of Yes. His music is often far from conventional, orchestral and embraced synths greatly, which I love. Personally I have spent many hours listening to his work and will be giving Mask a play tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 He did the score for Blade Runner too. Some of the Aphrodite`s Child stuff is worth a listen too if you can get hold of it - very dark and very strange but somehow pleasing at the same time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
