Re: Mike Oldfield - The Lake

Although I agree that the Lake is a wonderful song, I find the rest of the album to be way to pop for my tastes.

Also I have been collecting recent Mike Oldfield compositions, and I have to say I am still very much impressed, His CD 'Songs of Distant planet Earth' is one of his more creative compositions. And the releases of Tubular Bells II, III, and Miluneum Bell are some of my favorite CDs, taking us to all new landsacpes of Bell music, his use of an orchestra on Millineum Bell, is one of my favorite classical compositions I have heard lately.

I am still and Oldfield fan, and although he did a lot of pop during the 80's and 90's, I believe that the new Millenium has brought us a new side of Mike Oldfield you may have never heard!
