That fabulous Oldfield guitar solo that emerged from the chaos at 09:45 was always a great surprise. My vinyl edition of this is labelled and marketed as a Mike Oldfield album, naughty considering he only seems to pop up as a guest.
Yeh there were a few different covers too that were released in different countries along with different credits on the covers. Some absolutely amazing playing by all involved.
I have the same album on Cassette. To be fair, he is on all the tracks save "The Sighted Light", but I guess the distributor wanted to curb on Mike's name, since not really anyone over here would recognize Pekka.
@@thejay8963 Of course, no harm done, quite the opposite. I probably wouldn't have discovered this album otherwise and I'm glad I did. At times it sounds like the score from a 70s or early 80s Italian horror film.
I have it currently! I actually listen to it more than my tape of Power, Corruption, and Lies, which says a lot as that is one of my favorite albums from one of my favorite bands.
This is 100% Pekka Pohjola composition, that is, Finnish origin. Mike Oldfield only appears as a guest guitarist and "producer" - not totally ruining the music, but not too far from it actually. The fuzzy and fizzy guitars don't exactly do justice to this musical masterpiece, but it's what it is: still one of my all-time Pohjola favourites, in spite of Mike's contribution. The original album title is Keesojen Lehto: it is an official Pekka Pohjola album - and rightly so.

@@thejay8963 Yeh, I always assumed it was probably a marketing idea.

I mean, why not? Tubular Bells gained him a pretty good name.

Sehr schön und witzig gemacht... die Musik ist eh super 👍🤩🥰
I had this tape. There was a metal building, perhaps a silo, with a bird flying by it, on the cover. Great album, great memories

Piano when it came in at 04:25 sounded like Emerson on 2nd Impressions from Brain Salad.

No way, Mike's Guitar makes this track what it is, especially Pt. 1.
