Greek singer Demis Roussos has died.

The 68-year-old, who sold more than 60 million albums worldwide, was best known for his solo hits in the 1970s and 80s, including Forever and Ever, Goodbye and My Friend the Wind.

He was also a member of progressive rock group Aphrodite's Child, with Vangelis.

He'd been in a private hospital with an undisclosed illness for some time.
