It's the kind of thing that would now be considered \"Balearic\", so it's little surprise to see the set getting a European reissue for the very first time. There's much to admire throughout, from the funk-fuelled dancefloor cheeriness of \"Reggae Aegean Woman\" and Bob James\/Jimmy Smith-influenced bliss of \"Image\", to the sun-baked gorgeousness of \"Day Break\" and thrillingly jaunty \"Atlantis\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eTrack list:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAegean Fantasy (6:37)\u003cbr\u003eAtlantis (3:01)\u003cbr\u003eReggae Aegean Woman (3:56)\u003cbr\u003eMykonos Bride (3:51)\u003cbr\u003eImage (6:49)\u003cbr\u003eThe Rose Between Waves (5:21)\u003cbr\u003eDay Break (4:17)\u003cbr\u003eAphrodite's Mourning (3:49)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Victory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50706685362369,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/the-aegean-sea.webp?v=1791512299","url":"https:\/\/hathillrecords.com.au\/products\/haruomi-hosono-takahiko-ishikawa-masataka-matsutohya-the-aegean-sea-blue-vinyl-lp","provider":"Hat Hill Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
