Unfortunately, the biggest news in recent months has been about the passing of great artists. May of 2022 will go down in history for the death of the great Vangelis (Papathanassiou), to whose career we will dedicate a longread which will be published in the coming days.
The albums we listened to most during May are here, dominated by albums of Vangelis and Aphrodite’s Child! Good month to all!

Δυστυχώς, αυτό που κυριαρχεί στην μουσική επικαιρότητα τους τελευταίους μήνες είναι οι ειδήσεις για την απώλεια σπουδαίων καλλιτεχνών. Ο Μάιος του 2022 θα μείνει στην ιστορία για το θάνατο του σπουδαίου Βαγγέλη Παπαθανασίου, στην καριέρα του οποίου θα αφιερώσουμε ένα μεγάλο άρθρο το οποίο θα δημοσιευτεί τις επόμενες ημέρες.
Τα album που ακούσαμε περισσότερο τον Μάιο είναι εδώ, με δίσκους του Βαγγέλη και των Aphrodite’s Child να κυριαρχούν, απόλυτα δικαιολογημένα. Καλές ακροάσεις!
