"The Forminx" was one of the first and most popular bands of the Greek music scene.
The "The Forminx" group was the occasion and laid the foundations for the creation of dozens of bands in the sixties and not only across Greece.
The members of the group were:
Vangelis Papathanasiou - Keys
Vassilis Bakopoulos - Guitar
Sotiris Arnis - Bass
Kostas Skokos - Drums
The "Forminx" also featured Tasos Papastamatis in the voice and Thymios Petros in the voice and the guitar. Their main collaborator, having written most of the lyrics (what songs they included), and their managers were Nikos Mastorakis.
In 1976, almost ten years after their dissolution, they released their homonym album, with fourteen songs, by Pan-Vox. This unique album of '' The Forminx '' contains almost all of the material they had made on small discs in the '60s and first released in vinyl 180g.

Οι ''The Forminx'' ήταν ένα από τα πρώτα και δημοφιλέστερα συγκροτήματα της ελληνικής μουσικής σκηνής.
Το γκρουπ ''The Forminx'' ήταν η αφορμή και έβαλε τα θεμέλια για την δημιουργία δεκάδων συγκροτημάτων, την δεκαετία του εξήντα και όχι μόνο, σε όλη την Ελλάδα.
Τα μέλη του γκρουπ ήταν οι εξής:
Βαγγέλης Παπαθανασίου - Πλήκτρα
Βασίλης Μπακόπουλος - Κιθάρα
Σωτήρης Άρνης - Μπάσο
Κώστας Σκόκος - Τύμπανα
Στο σχήμα ''The Forminx'' συμμετείχαν επίσης ο Τάσος Παπασταμάτης στην φωνή και ο Θύμιος Πέτρου στην φωνή και στην κιθάρα. Βασικός συνεργάτης τους, καθώς είχε γράψει τους περισσότερους στίχους (όσα τραγούδια περιελάμβαναν), καθώς και μάνατζερ τους ήταν ο Νίκος Μαστοράκης.
Το 1976, σχεδόν δέκα χρόνια μετά την διάλυσή τους, κυκλοφόρησε ο ομώνυμος δίσκος τους, με δεκατέσσερα τραγούδια, από την εταιρεία Pan-Vox. Το μοναδικό αυτό άλμπουμ του συγκροτήματος ''The Forminx'', περιέχει σχεδόν όλο το υλικό που είχαν βγάλει σε μικρούς δίσκους στα '60s και κυκλοφορεί για πρώτη φορά σε βινύλιο 180 γρ.
