Before his name became associated with bad things (in relation to Vangelis), Stavros Logaridis (Σταύρος Λογαρίδης) was well established in the Greek rock scene, forming the band Poll in the early 70s, and then the famous progressive band Akritas in 1974. The lyricist for the Akritas album was none other than Costas Ferris, Vangelis' lyricist for the Aphrodite's Child album "666". During the 70s, a friendship was struck between Vangelis and Logaridis. He even lived with Vangelis for a brief spell. In 1980, Vangelis co-wrote a song, "NA M' AGAPAS" performed on his second solo album entitled SE ALLH GH. Vangelis used his pseudonym, "R. Broadbaker". This song turns out to be a new Greek-language version of "Bird of Love", originally performed by Humanity in 1973. A few years after this recording, Logaridis would attempt to sue Vangelis, claiming that Vangelis stole the idea for the Chariots of Fire main theme from Logaridis. The lawsuit was apparently a trying time for Vangelis, but in the end, Vangelis was cleared of copyright infringement, and needless to say, the friendship came to an ugly end.
