Thank you so much. I have the album but no longer have a record player and have missed this so much.

Masterpiece.

отличный альбом!

Many many years ago went on a outward bound course in shropshire having heard Hergest Ridge years before and they just seemed so suited to each other, quite an eerie feeling as you stare out over the mountains.

I prefer it to Ommadawn!

No. In definitive, is not a very good album. Strangely he is in the middle of the two Mike’s masterpieces: Tubular Bells and Ommadown.

My early 20s were steeped in this green tincture of ancient, rolling emerald hills. Now, a senior, realizing the vitality, still here, in this recording, Thanks!

I got this LP when it came out as I have always loved YES. My baby boy, JJ, was only 1 and 1/2 years old. He absolutely LOVED this. At that age, little ones will grab onto something, and every single day, they have to have it. So, my precious baby boy and I would go on the "Mow-gade Mommy!" and we would turn my coffee table into the ship. We would make newspaper tricorn hats, He was the captain "O-yies" and we would fly off to distant worlds while he danced while standing on the table and swaying back and forth in his little diaper waddle. He was so precious! Big dark brown eyes of wonder and dark brown curls framed his little chubby cheeks. I was just 16 myself, so we played as children do...then he would fall fast asleep on my lap dreaming of his little toddler expeditions and I stroked his little curls off his face. He is now grown, almost 50 years old, and a grandfather himself. But tonight, while I listen to "our" adventure music at 1:30 am and cry for my baby to be in my arms again. The ravages of time has taken its toll on me, but these special memories will never fade. Thank you so much Mr. Anderson for sharing this wonderful gift of time.

Awesome 🧡

Strangely, this was the second album I ever bought and now I only live a few miles away from Hergest Ridge.

Absolute jewel of an album. From cover art to layered sounds.

Mike Oldfield is the memory of a society deep in harmony with nature and its struggle to survive in a surrounding of deep disrespect towards it, that's at least I see it; enjoy the memory of better times, enjoy - Oldfield -🙂🙂😉❤ !!!

Great...hypnotic

sad that so few people remember this.

❤️🧡💛

I had this on continual repeat when I was fourteen, reading Lord of the Rings. Perfect soundtrack for that.

I listen to this album with headphones EVERYTIME I fly.

Un auténtico viaje a otro mundo. Hermoso.

A cette époque Anderson était super pote avec Vangelis et l'influence s''entend enormément Cela reste un très bon album le meilleur D'Anderson solo / At that time Anderson was great friends with Vangelis and the influence can be heard a lot. It remains a very good album, the best of Anderson solo

Этнические мотивы -- очень красиво. Это похоже на чюдные кружева.

These guys may be one of the only prog bands that have still strived to put out epic and incredible work long after the era had concluded. Cool album and thanks for posting.

Almost prog metal on some tracks! Thanks for posting

Found ya on RUclips.

One of my three favourite Yes and Anderson albums, alongside 'Close to the Edge' and 'Relayer'. Half a century later, it's still impressive.

brilliant, up with the top groups.

Thank you.

¡Excelente banda!! Por momentos me recuerda a UK, algo de Gentle Giant...había escuchado su primer álbum, en el primero se notan más las influencias de Yes y Genesis este es el segundo según tengo entendido, y lo encuentro más original, hasta hay música del Oeste americano.... Rastreé a la banda hasta 2006, 2008...pero encuentro sólo información dispersa sobre sus principales músicos hasta este 2023. Siguen tocando juntos? Saludos desde Mar del Plata, Argentina!

Sanctuary is not bad, in fact it is quite pleasant to listen to. If we had never heard the music of a genius named Mike Oldfield, while carrying a higher degree of emotion, it could qualify as a great composition.

I detect a very distinct early Mike Oldfield influence...I like it.

Vaya.....tremenda banda....no los conocía. Gracias camarada......🤘✌️

Слишком сложный, навороченный и заумный труд. Знатоки говорят, что это лучший сольный альбом участников "Yes". Мне гораздо ближе простенькие и понятные "The Story of I" Patrick Moraz & "Fish out of Water" Chris Squire, - с участием Patrick Moraz & Bill Bruford. А вообще "йесовцы" очень плохо обошлись с Гением Патриком Моразом. Очень плохо, буквально, не по-русски.

Yes,super album !!! Tak to tak poslouchám a furt mám pocit,že jsem to už někde slyšel,nicméně si to seženu-kvalitní hudební miš-maš !!!

MIKE OLDFIELD - Hergest Ridge - from wikipedia - ''Hergest Ridge'' is the second studio album by English musician and songwriter Mike Oldfield, released on 2 September 1974 by Virgin Records. The unexpected commercial and critical success of his debut album Tubular Bells (1973) affected Oldfield, who decided against touring and avoided the press with his newfound fame. Instead, he retreated to Hergest Ridge on the England-Wales border and wrote the follow-up, which he recorded in 1974 at The Manor in Oxfordshire, with Tom Newman returning as co-producer. Similar to Oldfield's first, the album is a single composition split into two parts covering different moods and musical styles. The album was No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart for three consecutive weeks before it was displaced by Tubular Bells, marking one of the few times an artist has overtaken themselves on the chart in this manner. In 2010, the album was reissued with new stereo and 5.1 surround sound mixes, bonus material, and new artwork. After the release of his debut album ''Tubular Bells'', Oldfield sought a countryside location to write a follow-up album. In early 1974 he drove around the West Country before turning north into Herefordshire. He arrived at Kington, a small town on the England-Wales border located in the shadow of Hergest Ridge, an elongated hill with a peak height of 425 metres (1,394 ft) which attracted Oldfield to stay in the area. He spotted a house named The Beacon on the edge of Bradnor Hill that was for sale and received permission from Virgin Records co-owner Richard Branson to buy it. Oldfield settled into his new home but felt unsure of his next career move. His contract with Virgin allowed him a £25 wage and continual offers added to the pressure of appearing in public, causing Oldfield to suffer from panic attacks. He lacked any solid ideas for new music and chose to perform simple undemanding Medieval tunes with folk musician Les Penning at Penrhos Court, a local restaurant, in return for free wine. With encouragement from Branson, Oldfield started to write a follow-up to Tubular Bells following the delivery of a Farfisa organ, 4-track TEAC tape machine, and a mixing desk to his house. Oldfield felt that half of the good sections on the album were so detailed and buried in the mix, it called for listeners to play the album on a high quality record player. He stated, "I have to listen really hard to pick out something that I know that I'm proud that I did". The climax to the album is something that he was particularly happy with. Comparisons of the album to Tubular Bells irritated him because he considered it a more arranged and fully conceived work. In 1975, Oldfield reflected on ''Hergest Ridge'' and thought it contained "some excellent ideas" but its recording was rushed, which affected the performance. After initial recording sessions at Basing Street Studios, London and Chipping Norton Studios, Oxfordshire were abandoned, Oldfield recorded Hergest Ridge in the spring of 1974 at The Manor near Shipton-on-Cherwell, Oxfordshire, with Tom Newman resuming his role as co-producer with Oldfield. The album was mixed at AIR Studios on London's Oxford Street. Music---- Similarly to ''Tubular Bells'', the album is divided into two movements. Oldfield frequently superimposes layers of electric guitar recorded by first amplifying heavily (to achieve a sustained organ-like quality) and then reducing the volume greatly via use of the Glorfindel Box (a custom guitar effects unit housed in plywood, which was extremely unreliable in its operation; the unit was obtained from David Bedford, who had been given the box at a party by its creator.) The volume was reduced further using the compression channel from the Manor's mixing console, as had been done on ''Tubular Bells Part 2''. Textures are extended further using various organ timbres and the use of voice as an instrument (the voice is never treated prominently and is deliberately reduced as much as possible and thus permitted largely for textural effect). Track listing --- All music is composed by Mike Oldfield. Side one No. Title Length 1. "Hergest Ridge (Part One)" 21:29 Side two No. Title Length 1. "Hergest Ridge (Part Two)" 18:45 Personnel--- Credits are adapted from the 1974 liner notes. Musicians--- Mike Oldfield - electric and acoustic guitars, bass guitar, glockenspiel, sleigh bells, mandolin, nutcracker, timpani, gong, Spanish guitar, Farfisa organ, Lowrey organ, GEM Gemini organ June Whiting - oboe Lindsay Cooper - oboe Ted Hobart - trumpet Terry Oldfield - flute Chilli Charles - snare drum Clodagh Simonds - vocals Sally Oldfield - vocals David Bedford - choir and strings conductor

My uncle is the drummer for hands John Rousseau

Hands est vraiment l'une des plus belles architectes musicales de son temps. Il y a quelques années, une très bonne amie m'a présenté ses œuvres. J’en serai toujours reconnaissant à son âme translucide et majestueuse, prématurément envolée

Jon Anderson's "Tubular Bells".... an incredible masterpiece!

Truly amazing album! Dig it a lot! A successful mix of Gentle Giant and early Kansas.

Better than "Caviar Bobsled". Great, but not so remarkable as their first albums. Shades of Kansas and Gentle Giant.

Not so remarkable as their first albums. Too slow. Shades of Jethro Tull and Gentle Giant.

The Lonely Rocker digs this kinda music! great stuff!
