* CreatorKiller: ''[[NewSoundAlbum 666]]'', [[Music/AphroditesChild Aphrodite's Child]]'s double album conceived and composed by Vangelis that sent the band into ProgRock. The album was completed in 1969, but the band's record company turned it down and wasn't willing to release it until 1972. The band stalled in the meantime. Vangelis didn't want to return to the band's old sound, the rest of the band didn't want to stick with the new sound, and there was no point in recording more albums when the band already had one in limbo already. Unable to do anything sensible, the band split in 1971. It didn't live to experience ''666'' becoming a BreakthroughHit with an entirely new audience, but Vangelis was free to start a new solo career.
* DevelopmentHell: In 1969 when ''666'' was recorded, the music world wasn't ready for this kind of music yet, and Aphrodite's Child were known for two albums of shallow pop, so that was what their record company wanted from them. They refused to release the album until 1972 when Aphrodite's Child had already disbanded.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: By far most of Vangelis' enormous musical output has never been released as albums or compilations. He only released the ''Film/BladeRunner'' soundtrack because people simply didn't stop asking for it, not even after he threw them a bone with ''Themes'' which only contains the "Love Theme" and the "End Titles". The soundtrack album itself only contains the latter as an excerpt, so bootlegging was the only possible way of obtaining them in their entirety until ''The Collection'' was released in 2012.

Bootlegs recorded from video tape were the only way to obtain his post-''Film/ChariotsOfFire'' soundtracks for quite a while. He only released the ''Film/BladeRunner'' soundtrack because people simply didn't stop asking for it, not even after he threw them a bone with ''Themes'' which only contains the "Love Theme" and the "End Titles". The soundtrack album itself only contains the latter popular "Main Titles" as an excerpt, so bootlegging was the only possible way of obtaining them in their entirety until ''The Collection'' was released in 2012.
