 Odyssey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Odyssey (Greek Ὀδυσσεία) is the second of the two great Greek epic poems ascribed to Homer, the first of which is the Iliad.
While today's Odyssey is usually a printed text, the original poem was an oral composition sung by a trained bard, in an amalgamated Ancient Greek dialect, using a regular metrical pattern called dactylic hexameter.
Tank Girl: Odyssey borrows freely and irrevently from Homer and James Joyce's Ulysses, casting targets in the contemporary media as the trials the heroine must overcome to get back to her mutant kangaroo boyfriend.

 Yngwie Malmsteen - Odyssey | sputnikmusic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Odyssey was released in 1989 and defined as the most commercial of all albums Yngwie J. Malmsteen's name has been attached to, and not without reason.
After 6 other albums with his name on the cover, it's ironic that it would have to be under the pressure of record executives to finally have a single released.
Although saying that, the lack of solos, screaming vocals and reverberant drumming may sound more like the band on the verge of reality TV and commercial radio stations… That may be a little harsh.

 PONG-Story : Magnavox Odyssey - the first video game system -
The Odyssey was packed in a large two-level styrofoam box (the lower level contained the system, the controllers, RF cable, switch-box, and the other level contained the remaining accessories).
There are several variants of the Odyssey, and it is possible that some of them may still be unknown; special export versions were made in 1973 and 1974 and they are by far the rarest versions of the original Odyssey system.
Odyssey originally sold in the USA only, but was later exported in small amounts to several countries in 1974, and even cloned.

His third solo album, Odyssey, is out now through Creative Vibes, and it is a gutsy, roots driven hip-hop album drawing on a strange mélange of influences.
Odyssey is the product of a lot of rambling, a lot of rhyming, and more rambling.

Before Odyssey hit the record store racks in 1988, the buzz around the album was King Kong-sized.
This album might be considered the most pop oriented record of Yngwie's illustrious career.
Odyssey was a marked improvement in production over his previous efforts and the compositions were much stronger.

While there has been a lot of anticipation surrounding the release of the band's fourth album, the guys refuse to put pressure on themselves, instead they stress that their goal is to grow musically and remain challenged as a group.
The album is a collection of big sounds that are built on solid song foundation, accompanied by intelligent and memorable lyrics.
Their new album Odyssey Number Five is testament to this, and any Powderfinger fan will be excited by the collection of powerful tracks on this album.

The second song on the album is one of the stronger cuts; it opens with a pounding riff that...well, induces headbanging, to say the least!
Finally, my absolute favorite track on the album, as well as my favorite Symphony X song to date, is the glorious and absolutely massive "The Odyssey".
Overall, "The Odyssey" is a very worthy investment and quite possibly one of 2002 (an excellent year for metal)'s finest albums.

The first seven songs on "The Odyssey" are pretty straightforward power metal with a definite prog influence.
Symphony X have released an extremely solid album that is bound to not only keep their long-time fans happy, but will garner new fans that may have not had the chance to hear this band yet.

This album is the shittiest he's ever released, and I've got them all.
Facing the animal was so good, one of his top 3 albums regarding the songs, the rythm, the voice, the lyrics, the solos..

The difference in their new album and the previous four albums is that the past few had at least two songs with a discernable beat.
No one should purchase this album, unless they are just trying to waste their money on a pointless album.

On the other hand, if "2001: a S.P.O.C.K Odyssey" would have been cut down to an EP, the grade had risen by at least one unit, possibly two.

 Basement Medicine-- Newspaper Archives   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The album is characterized by unexpected shifts from major to minor keys and precise, well-crafted songwriting.
The album ends with its only top twenty hit, Argent’s “Time of the Season.” This song’s always reminded me of smoke-filled bars and Mod chicks wearing fl dancing in front of paisley walls, and it’s one of the only songs on the album where Argent gets to flex a little muscle on his organ.
Perhaps because The Zombies knew this was going to be their last album, Odyssey and Oracle possesses an autumnal quality, like a cold draft coming through your stereo.

 Definition of The Odyssey (album)
The Odyssey is the sixth studio effort of progressive metalband Symphony X, and their heaviest album so far.
Track number 5, King of Terrors, is the heaviest Symphony X song ever made, and may surprise when listening for the first time.
This line continues in the sixth track, where the seventh track can be seen as a warming up to the grand finale: track eighth is 24 minute epic about the odyssee of ancient Greek hero Odysseus, titled The Odyssey.

im not the best to vote on this since i havent heard all six but of the 3 ive heard odyssey is my favorite followed by divine wings in a close second.
the odyssey, by far, they played that 23 minute bloody epic to close their mean fiddler set, no backing tape, nothing, did all the orchestra parts on guitar bass drums and vocals.
This was the last album by them i bought due to fans not liking it as much, when V and the self titled album were my least favourites.
