May 14th

 

The riders gallop

hooves pale death billow poison

a blind man’s visions

I found this song by Aphrodite’s Child. The Greek super group containing both Demis Roussos and the composer Vangelis, prior to them going their separate ways and becoming successful in their own right.

They wrote a crazy concept about about the book of revelation called 666. I believe it was written whilst under the influence of several illegal substances and by the look of their wonderfully portly physiques… cake.

What a tune! Totally crazy! I love the whole pidgin English going down in the lyrics too. And what a guitar solo by Silver Koulloris too. The whole arrangement / song makes me laugh and rock out at the same time! Brilliant and mad!  \m/ \m/ raaaaarrrr!
