About This Item
Deluxe digitally remastered digipak edition of this 1976 album from the Greek Electronic music pioneer. The superb Albedo 0.39 was Vangelis' second album to be released by RCA Records and was recorded at his personal studio in London, Nemo in 1976. This conceptual work, inspired by Space and Galactic Physics, took it's name from the planet Earth's albedo, (the proportion of the light a planet receives that is reflected back into outer space), as it was in 1976. The album was to feature the iconic InchPulstarInch and saw Vangelis push the perceived boundaries of the synthesizer as a musical instrument to new dimensions. In addition, Vangelis played a wide variety of other instruments on this stunning work. Album Tracks 1. Pulstar 2. Freefall 3. Mare Tranquillitatis 4. Main Sequence 5. Sword of Orion 6. Alpha 7. Nucleogenesis Part One 8. Nucleogenesis Part Two 9. Albedo 0.39
