Five circles [0:05:19.50] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This album was released in 1992 exclusively in Spain. In other countries, it was released in 1989 as "Themes" on a single CD, though the tracklist was slightly different, and "Eric's theme" and "Mouettes" were added in Spain. It's funny, as both CDs from this spanish CD could fit on a single CD. Following you'll find the Allmusic review for Themes, which is the closest I've found to a review for this one (in english). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE ALLMUSIC REVIEW FOR THEMES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Review by Mike DeGagne Themes is one of the most entertaining and thorough of any of Vangelis' collections, with excerpts spanning such albums as Opera Sauvage, China, and the ever-popular Chariots of Fire release from 1981. Most of the selections from Themes speak for Vangelis' movie contributions, including the infamous "Chariots of Fire" track as well as the lonesome-sounding theme from Missing and the powerful openings from Mutiny on the Bounty. With this music, Vangelis has implemented some variations in rhythm and some noticeable fluctuation in his synthesizer work, making these tracks much more colorful and animated than his new age meanderings of the '70s. Also, his ability to cast visual imagery through his keyboard playing is represented by many of these excerpts, but proven best on tracks like "Antarctica," in which the white, barren wasteland is conjured up perfectly through his wispy synthesized textures, and then again on "End Titles From Bladerunner," which was previously unreleased, simulating the impersonal, android-like world in which the movie was based. Both of his cuts from China include oriental-flavored backdrops, while Bladerunner's love theme remains one of Vangelis' most beautiful pieces. Themes is a definitive purchase as far as compilations are concerned, since a majority of his best material lies in the 14 tracks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EAC LOG EXTRACT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Exact Audio Copy V0.99 prebeta 4 from 23.

It's normal, after a few hours/days downloading and expecting a release, to feel deceived if it doesn't work properly, and expressing this is legitimate. I've often found one comment (negative) on a movie/CD downloaded by 2000+ people, and since that single negative feedback, people simply stop downloading and therefore, sharing. But a few times it was due not to the torrent itself, but to some issues on the downloader side (not updated codecs, misused tools...), and that's unfair for the person who took the time to share it for free. IF YOU FIND THIS RELEASE DESERVES TO BE RECOMMENDED TO OTHERS, HELP BY DROPPING A LINE AFTER YOU'VE CHECKED IT. This way, You'll help in keeping the torrent alive, almost as much as keeping it in your HDD until a 1:1 ratio is reached. Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for the ul. I like what you said at the bottom about what people post, and how a negative posting can kill a torrent that's fine. I've occasionally had problems with my computer doing something odd to a dl, and will only post asking if anyone noticed a problem.
Thanks again.
