Mike Oldfield talks in the studio mixing Ommadawn, Hergest Ridge, Tubular Bells, Richard Branson, All You Need Is Love TV show - New Directions episode.
I am not amazed that Mike Oldfield´s music has been amongst the greatest, continuous and most present joys in my life, and my family´s. I am not amazed at how many others around the world feel the same way. However, I never cease to be amazed at how utterly beautiful his music is. Thank you and God bless!
This Ommadawn album has something special. It is extremely beautiful but also sounds transcendental. Mike was in a sweet mood. Inspired, confident, peaceful, in harmony. Like connected with God.
I have loved his music since I was 14, I bought Tubular Bells out of my paper money and it hit me for six, I didn't listen to anything other than Mike's music for years. I'm still a fan at 57.
I remember this programme being broadcast on TV in my teens, probably in the late 70s. MO is surely a genius composer and performer. I have always been a big fan as Tubular Bells was the first audiotape I ever bought just after seeing it performed live in concert (I think on BBC2). Each of his albums has brought something different and inspiring. It's very unlikely that there will ever be anyone quite so unique and gifted as a musician and multi-instrumentalist. Jeff Lynne has the same distinction, but in a far more popular and mainstream form of music. MO has his own individual and particular niche, but somehow appreciated just as widely. That's quite a feat to achieve!
Ageless, immortal music. He is a genius. I wish Ant Phillips was as determined as Mike, in promoting his music, so similar in taste and intricate delicacy ❤️❤️
I can't describe, unless I write a book, just how much Mike's music means to me. It is the background of my life. Thank you Mike.
Mike oldfield is a genius in the true sense of the word. Numero uno!
Ommadawn best imaginative piece of music ever composed 🤯🥰

Mike's best work. The guitar at the end of part one is spine tingling. Genius.
Grande Oldfield un vero innovato
Ommadawn, eines der emotionalsten Werke von Mike Oldfield überhaupt!
Tubular Bells, for sure : a portal to another world.
Mike marched to the beat of a different drum, which I like a lot

He's the truest musician I've ever heard, and I've heard a lot

One of the few original geniuses in popular music.
Imagine had Mike Oldfield been a scientist - he probably would have invented the warp drive or something.
Wonderful Song
