[Alex S. Garcia]

> Official soundtrack by "Vangelis"; some Italian synth composer.

He's Greek, not Italian (his full name is Vangelis Papathanassiou). His most
famous movie soundtrack (aside from "Blade Runner") is probably the one he
did for "Chariots of fire". He also released plenty of solo albums, all
instrumental, and several duo albums with Yes' Jon Anderson on vocals (as Jon
& Vangelis) which include the famous song "The friends of Mr. Cairo", an
amazing piece.

On a side note, Vangelis began his career in a progressive rock band called
Aphrodite's Child who released the now hard-to-find concept album "666" in
1972. The singer was Demis Roussos, who later became a popular pop singer in
some parts of Europe (including France, big star here in the 70's and 80's).
