YES it sist a dyed in the wool Oldfield album with lots of great moments! No, it's not a rehash of Tubular Bells (and I am very happy). NO it is not linked seamlessly Ommadwan or Amarok to, but is based on the pop albums of the 80s. Is it therefore equally bad? Absolutely NO! Who really likes Oldfield always considered the entire work. Never would have gone one without the other. Mike is now times an artist who plays what he lives and you can hear in all its facets. I think it has become a great album Pop. Luke is a very horny singer of super fits into the material. But I listen to just as happy at the instrumental versions. As a whole new world to do!
I always care commitments: Mike could blow on the comb and I would love it! And I mean it. The only exception: tubular beats. Sorry Mike but I can just do anything !!!
I believe there is now reason to hope that there is more to come from the Master! Whether he continued in the 80s or plays back in the 70's, or perhaps hurtling into the year 2222, I do not wurst. I thank this man for a fulfilling life with great music !!!
