| | The greatest thing about Heaven And Hell (because the album is full of great things) is the revolutionary sound Vangelis created through mixing electronic synthesizers and choirs and beautiful solo vocals and his unique feeling as both composer and performer. | | | Knowing that Heaven and Hell is one of the angular stones of Vangelis' solo career, being unable to get it anywhere around here for such a long term (should be noticed that I live in Chile: that long, thin earth stripe whose feet stand at the south pole) was just Hell. | | | Heaven And Hell Part II is «Hell», as we could say that Part I is «Heaven». |

| | Heaven and hell |
| | Whatever it was, Heaven or Hell, the finished album marks an era of newly found freedom for Vangelis, who had just signed to the RCA label. | | | For the first time using just his first name, Heaven and Hell is Vangelis at his very best, with unprecedented grandeur, a mix of electronic instruments and percussion, accompanied by the voices of the English Chamber Choir and the angelic voices of Jon Anderson and Vana Veroutis. | | | This album is the first one ever to be recorded at Nemo Studios in London - England. |

| | While the title suite makes up more than 40 minutes, the album's still best known for Vangelis's delicate if overly sentimental duet with Yes singer Jon Anderson on "So Long Ago, So Clear." Twenty years on, Vangelis can still move heaven, hell, earth, and your stereo system. | | | Released five years before his infamous score for the film Chariots of Fire, Heaven and Hell is a symphonic suite for orchestra and chorus; only the orchestra is all Vangelis, playing an array of electronic keyboards and percussion, joined by the English Chamber Choir. | | | Heaven and Hell was hot item and passed through my senior school from ear to ear amongst 'those kids in the know' in much the same way that a joint would these days. |

| | Vangelis' Heaven and Hell was later used as the theme to the PBS television series Cosmos by Carl Sagan. | | | He also contributed as a producer and keyboard player to the recordings of Greek rock band Socrates's album Phos, which was perhaps their most important release. | | | They had a hit single in Europe called "Rain and Tears", and are considered pivotal in the development of progressive rock and concept albums, especially because of their ground-breaking composition 666 (The Apocalypse Of John,13/18). |

| | The maelstrom that is the opening five-minute bombast of "Heaven and Hell, Part One," where the "sturm und drang" of Vangelis's keyboards probably made everyone from Keith Emerson to Rick Wakeman green with envy. | | | Listening to this odd-man-out entry in the sweeping Vangelis catalog nearly 30 years after its release, one is instantly reminded of the time and musical climate in which it was recorded--this is a disc that distills the glorious pomp and circumstance that was mid-'70s prog-rock. | | | In 1974, after a tentative foray into film scoring, Vangelis released his first solo album, the synthesizer-laden EARTH. |

| | Ground and Sky review - Vangelis - Heaven and Hell |
| | A personal favorite, Heaven and Hell musically covers a lot of territory, and though no themes are repeated across the tracks, the overall vision remains very coherent to the end. | | | If it were, a more accurate title might be "Hell and Heaven and Hell and (Heaven or Maybe Hell) and Heaven." But in any case, let me give you the brief walk-through. | | | For this album, Vangelis follows the Mike Oldfield model of many pieces of music strung together to make two long tracks on either side of an album. |

| | Vangelis produced 2 brilliant albums, "See You Later" & "Soil Festivities", both eccentric as hell, a couple of _weird_ ones ("Invisible Connections" and "Beaubourg"), a few reasonable ones ("Albedo 0.39, Spiral, Earth...) and a lot of overbearing dross (anything with the words "Jon Anderson" on the back :-)). | | | These tracks are the same as the tracks found on the Singles and Album releases. | | | Compilation Album A collection album that has various tracks from other albums. |

| | This album is the first in a series of four 'Jon & Vangelis' albums after Jon Anderson sang the one song on the 1975 album 'Heaven & Hell'. | | | First album from the duo of Yes vocalist Jon Anderson & Vangelis. | | | They scored a minor hit with 'I Hear You Now' and other highlights include 'One More Time' and 'A Play Within A Play' (with its surprising outburst in the middle) but the overall quality of the music is consistently good. |

| | The fourth "Jon and Vangelis" album sounds rather different than the first three. | | | The album was not a big commercial success and they had no success in the single-charts either. | | | The regular European/Canadian release (top picture) of this album in 1991 was in fact a recompiled version. |

| | With Heaven and Hell, the first album to be produced at the Nemo studio in London, Vangelis really explodes onto the music scene, establishing his unique style. | | | If the title of the album is anything to go by, it starts off in hell with a primitive siren-like piece featuring hard-edged choral work and lasting about four minutes. | | | Surely were in heaven now where Jon Anderson awaits us for the first of many collaborations with Vangelis, the angelic So Long Ago, So Clear which ends the first part. |
