Aphrodite's Child: 666

This is truly the best non-American/English prog gem out there. 1972's "666" from the Greek prog rockers Aphrodite's Child (whose guitarist/keyboardist/producer Evangelos Papathanassious would later find huge fame under the name Vangelis) marked a new era of concept albums; despite the sometimes misleading title, the entire album is based upon the biblical Book of Revelation (yet it was banned in a huge number of Christian states and countries due to its 'suggestive' cover art- ironic much?). But really, this album has it all; beautiful, glistening, yet heavy psychedelic rock as seen in "The Four Horsemen" and "Aegian Sea"; abstract, dark anthems to humanity as seen in "∞"; jangly, almost comical art rock as seen in "The Beast"; and even some early drum & bass, as seen in "Do It". Definitely a must have for anyone who loves deep, tasteful, yet varied progressive rock.

Best tracks IMO: The Four Horsemen, Aegian Sea
