    Did I hear Oxfordshire (where I am from)? This can't quite be right, though where he is from (Reading) is on the border with that county, but I have no knowledge of him living in Oxfordshire. Do correct me if I am wrong by all means.

    • @magnusbruce4051
      @magnusbruce4051 Год назад +1

      Might be based on his time living in the Virgin Manor Studio as a session musician maybe, but that's a fairly tenuous link given when this was filmed. I'd guess either at that time he was living in Oxfordshire or they just made a mistake. I noted that they referred to the first (and I think it's relevant to say: solo) musician as being from the "United States" yet the two other artists were announced as being from New York and Cincinnati, so they were being fairly loose with how they introduced people. Another possibility is each artist was given the choice of how they'd like to be introduced and that is why the artists were announced as such.

    The worlds greatest composer and musician to have ever lived. Mike has written the soundtrack of my life right from the 1970’s up to present day. When I was seriously ill with Covid my doctor said that I stood no chance and to make my final plans. I asked my wife and kids to play Tubular Bells along with Wonderful Land then Neil Diamonds Remember Me at my funeral. By some miracle I pulled through but my request still stands.

      the original Tubular bells is also done in a 7-8 count it tricks the brain into listening and not drifting off, Kinda like the film industry flashing frames of pop corn in the movie that could not be seen by eye ,later banned buy film industry . It is a very hard complicated way to play only the most dedicated of musicians can play this count

    My eternal thanks to this man , for performing the most engrossing , complex , involving & entertaining music across my adolescence & right through manhood , because mike,s music got me away from a bad gang which would have been my undoing , quite simply , the music that the gang lived for was virtual rubbish compared to that which Mike Oldfield composed & performed , & they could not compete with it . It left them standing , & greatly elevated my musical taste . I have most of this man,s released work , don,t regret any of it , & thank him sincerely . I,m not a wealthy man but to me it was & still is essential to afford the new releases . Great music can get a misguided kid away from trouble far more effectively than any amount of threats , punishment etc . Thanks Mr Oldfield .

    Divine! Genius! Michael has given the world masterpieces that only he could do. I first listened to his 3 or 4 albums in 1976. Ever since his music meant special happiness for me. Later on with the advent of the internet I found out what more I shared with him, besides my passion for music: we were both born in 1953, both born in May, me on the 4th, he on May 15th. Michael Oldfield has made so many people happy with unique music. God bless him with everything that’s dear to his soul!

I recently let my LP album go in an Estate Sale (along with 1200 other LPs, a lifetime collection of rock, jazz, and classical), we (my wife and I) are 78, and just moved to a cottage in Senior Retirement Community. We are the among youngest here. I make Van Halen jokes all the time. We have new friends who are in their 80s, 90s, and even a good half dozen over 100.
