Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 1979, 'Odes' marked Vangelis' significant foray into film scoring, following his success with the soundtracks for 'Blade Runner' and 'Chariots of Fire'. At this point, he was transitioning from his earlier progressive rock roots towards a more ambient and cinematic style that would define much of his later work.
