A same side of Vangelis through two albums, Which one do you bring with you for a walk or for a drive?

I neither walk nor drive to Vangelis, but I prefer China over Earth.

I like both albums although I would have paired The Dragon with China for obvious reasons. There are only a small handful of Vangelis albums that beat China in my book and Earth is not one of them.

Yes i see what you mean about the Dragon with Ripoche on violin.....but it was but a jam, a first take that never had been finished

China was my first Vangelis album - so it is very special for me.
