My best mates ex-girlfriend used to work for Clive Banks Management.Through her I got heaps of free Mike stuff(lucky me!)including 2 promo-only CD's.One is TSODE,with plain dark blue cover(the lettering on front and back is same style as album),the cd is black,again with same lettering.The other is the sentinel(edit) single promo on Reprise records(made in USA).
 Can anyone tell me if these are rare or have any value?

Best to check Rainer Münz's discography for them - http://www.rzuser.uni-heidelberg.de/%7Ejk0/oldfield/oldfield.htm

As far as I know there are quite a few of those TSODE promo CD's going about. I got one a couple of weeks before the album came out in 1994 from a friend who worked in a CD shop and he had a few to give away so I reckon they're probably quite common. There's nothing special about it, no cover picture etc, you'd have be a real completest to want to own it.

Some of them Rainer reckons to be quite valuable - it just depends on the exact edition...
It certainly wouldn't have much value outside real completist collectors, but they're often the people who'll pay anything to get something they don't have.

Well I'll be holding onto my copy anyway.It's nice to have something that's a little different.What is special is the music that's on there. :)
