Perhaps, the most ambitious Greek progressive album. "Akritas" formed in late 1972 by ex-"Poll", Stavros Logarides and ex-"Bourboulia", Aris Tasoulis. This 1973 concept release is full of complex multi-instrumental rhythmic patterns and musical textures. Psychospace guitars, baroque organs, jazz-piano tunes, thunderous drumming, swirling sound-effects and soaring vocals...Mixing the finest moments of Spring, Gracious, Arcadium, Dr.Z, ELP, Ossana, Canterbury music scene, Amon Duul II, Frank Zappa, and greek traditional music with their own unique and uncomparable stigma! The greek lyrics to "Akritas" are written by Kostas Ferris, responsible for Aphrodite's Child masterwork, "666". A mega prog killer and much in demand...
