3 Mike Oldfield Licks From 1981

- Hey everybody! Here's the next episode of Three-For-All with 3 Mike Oldfield Licks From 1981. I've had a few requests to feature some of Mike's interesting and inspiring music, and while he's known as a composer, he's actually a multi-instrumentalist, and plays guitar, bass, piano/keyboard, percussion, and can sing, so without further ado - let's dive in!
Most people know Mike's name and music through his eternal classic album Tubular Bells - which was prominently featured in the acclaimed (and feared) horror film The Exorcist in 1973 and won an Academy Award the following year.
The licks and ideas shared in this lesson were pulled from a live performance capturing Mike playing the song 'Platinum' and before the song begins, he played an atmospheric solo with a droning synth under him, and that's where these ideas originated. This entire lesson is played using a fingerstyle "plucking" technique, which Mike was using during the concert, and include an opening Ebm7 arpeggio phrase, a a dream-like melodic idea, a phrase that reminds my of Jeff Beck's 'Where Were You,' a quirky phrase using distinct vibrato movements, and much more.
Needless to say, if you're a fan of Mike Oldfield's music, a player searching for some licks/ideas using a fingerstyle technique, a player looking for some VERY different ideas, or maybe you're just curious what all the fuss is about - this lesson is totally for you!

My favorite guitarist and composer by far. A truly unique musician.
Mike Oldfield was the reason to pickup the guitar and learn how to play.
Same here. Heard the screaming guitar on Five Miles Out and instantly knew that I had to get myself an electric.
A guitarist who is always underrated. I had the chance to see him live in 1981 and 1982. It was so wonderful.
Great to see Mike's guitar playing highlighted here.
He's generally just referred to as 'that dude that composed Tubular Bells'.
But as well as being a multi-instrumentalist, he's also a phenomenal guitarist with a unique technique and instantly recognisable tone.
Definitely an overlooked musician as you said David.
Thanks for another great video. 👍
I think you should revisit Mike, specifically Punkadiddle live at Montreux. Also, have you done a 3 for all on Gary Richrath (i.e Golden Country)
About time to bring in one of my all time favourite guitarist thank you
Nice Video !
Mike Oldfield has some great Guitarlicks ... Dark Star from TB2 ❤
My alltime best guitarsolo on Earth „Moonlight Shadow“ not ultra difficult but mega tasty & heavy at the end
That Moonlight Shadow solo rips for such a light song in the beginning. 🤟🏻
Check out his Incantations album especially Part 3 for more of that Jeff Beck style lick. Fantastic soloing.
Thanks so much for this! I’d love to sound like Mike in my wildest dreams!
A lesson of licks from Tubular Bells would be well-recieved.....
@6:05, That sequence is from another of Mike's albums: Incantations, followed by a riff from the un-albumed single: Guilty. I'm not totally sure what people mean when they say Mike is "underrated". I sometimes think they mean he doesn't have the fame, reputation or kudos they don't know he actually has. I would guess most musicians are in the same boat. He is one of the greatest guitarists in the world for sure. The last three minutes and thirty seconds of the live Platinum excerpt off Disc 2 of "The Complete Mike Oldfield" compilation album is one of the best live guitar work I've ever heard.
Small correction: Phil Collins actually played on the album following Platinum entitled QE2.
Enjoyed the video. Nice to see Mike Oldfield getting attention and focus like this.
I really like the "3 licks" series because they invite the player to expand their vocabulary, one lick at a time. BTW: Today's lesson was really tasty! Thank you Sensei!
Good memories with tito Mike in Ibiza.Thanks Dave!
I really, really want 3 licks on Mick Ronson, maybe from I'd give anything to see you, but too afraid to ask. And it's fun getting inspiration from players I don't normally listen to
All those licks are variations of Leitmotivs he uses throughout the album. Try his 'Incantations' album if you want some mind and finger bending arpeggios and solos. His vibrato is unique. It's his signature. Remember, he always plays vibrato like a classical guitarist ,not an electric guitarist - left to right, on the string - not up and down as you sometimes demonstrate in your lesson! It has an entirely different quality. Love your lesson, I always enjoy them and learn something new
So you’re gonna make your own oldfield lesson and demonstrate all this stuff?
@@knightfall9394 No, although I'm sure some Oldfield fans have done vids on his unique technique. I concentrate more on teaching Steve Howe and Kevin Gilbert material + some oddities that are more obscure. Keep up the good work.
I found an interesting video of Mike himself explaining his guitar technique. It starts around the 7:30 minute mark. It will certainly give you a good insight into his right-hand style. ruclips.net/video/-kEK-37BMEA/видео.html
Awesome... i listened to hergest ridge last week. Incredible stuff
Excellent pick ! Mike in the video (Nottingham 1981) was the insane version of him, he never played guitar better (before or since)
Awesome video... what a great musician ...tubular bells was one of the creepiest things I ever heard
I remember The Movie “ The Exorcist” but never knew who did the musical score….. Thanks as always David for broadening my horizons 😎. Great as usual Buddy 👍
This is a great channel. One need not play guitar to enjoy and takeaway something valuable from LNL videos. T-shirt desire: "Something Like This" on the front and "Something Like That" on the back.
Great lesson Mike! that third lick I lifted from him aswell except I changed the decending part to be like a walking down melodic idea. I was kind of sick and tired running up and down the pentatonic scale all the time so I came up with starting on the B string playing C (14th fret), G# on the G string (13th fret) then decending down to F# (11th fret) to F (10th fret) down to Eb on (8th fret) then sliding down from the 8th fret Eb to Db (6th fret) back up to Eb to end the whole lick. Hope those who read this can also go on their own little adventures and come up with ways to manipulate great licks and ideas you like aswell!
superb. Thanks for posting ❤
Nice, nice!!!! 🙂
Really enjoy the 3 licks!!🎸🎸🤘🏻🤘🏻😎😎
Great artist.
MO has composed just one soundtrack : The killing field.
He was 19/20 yo when he wrote Tubular Bells
No, he was about 15 years when he composed. He recorded TB when he was 19.
Great vid as always.
I have a vid idea. XTC. Some seriously mind-expanding stuff there.
Thx dude, keep up the amazing work. 🎸
Charlie Starr has some great riffs/licks
that bonus track vibrato from Mike really reminded me of Steve Hackett's wrist-hinge ( 2nd cousin to Stonehenge, in the form of rarity)

You got one on Arlen Roth? The people should know....
Only problem with some loopers is they cut the volume of the loop when you play over them or distort the sound.
Mike does more of a violin-style vibrato.
Budgie please
Вот только соло разбирал из песни nuclear. Уж очень оно эмоциональное, для меня.
M.O is God !
