Milamber Group: Musicians Posts: 2263 Joined: Feb. 2010 Posted: Sep. 10 2010, 01:58 I cant believe it,  I have finally managed to track down the missing encore from the final TB2 gig. On the very final night at the Los Angeles John Ansem Ford Theater Mike treated the crowd to a 3 minute live version of Amarok. Only the last minute remains and rumors are it was found in Noel (Oasis Wanks) Garbage after a major renovation . It was found on a beaten up cassette tape labeled C.E.N.P's. So the quality is a bit poor sorry. Amarok Live New just play Link below. Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Sep. 10 2010, 17:26 @ Milamber: sorry to unmask you, but this is not Mike Oldfield live. This is Mike Oldfield playing in his studio, in 1990, featuring Cameron James a.k.a. Milamber playing drums at home in 2010. P.S.: Joking aside... excellent as usual. I want more! -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Tubularman Group: Awaiting Authorisation Posts: 2304 Joined: June 2004 Posted: Sep. 10 2010, 23:35 but he did some aucustic live? i have some on my computer.. he play the "fast riff" no one heard this? he plays for a couple/audience.. you can download it here, not the best quality thought http://www.sendspace.com/file/m097d5 -------------- Mike Oldfield M i x e s https://soundcloud.com/tubularman Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Sep. 11 2010, 14:44 @ Tubularman: well, yes, he did do some short acoustic excerpts live, in radio shows etc., to promote Amarok (not that his "promotional" activities generated any increase in the album's sales, of course! ); maybe your clip is from one of those performances. BTW, the fact that the Fast Riff from Amarok is in 5/4 is very clear from this clip. There is also an excerpt from "Stop" (another Amarok section) and a variation on it. I have another clip on my PC, with the same audio quality and the same ambient noises, of Mike playing a little bit of TB part 2. Maybe it is from the same show? @ milamber: @ nightspore: when we joked about Cameron (Milamber's first name) and James Cameron, he told me that his full name was Cameron James. Or maybe am I remembering this wrongly? -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Sep. 11 2010, 16:23 @ Tubularman: well, yes, it's radio. You can't gather more than 30-40 people in a radio studio, can you? Unless it's a theatre being used for a radio broadcast, as the BBC often does... -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Sep. 12 2010, 14:02 @ Cameron/Milamber: then what is your surname? I just can't get it from Daniel's (Nightspore's) joke. If you think it cannot be written here without provoking more laughter, just PM me. By the way, I'm sure you know that my surname is Coppola (no, I'm not related to anyone famous) but I don't think you know that it means "cap" - at least in Sicily it does. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Delfín Group: Members Posts: 667 Joined: Nov. 2000 Posted: Sep. 20 2010, 20:02 milamber: still I'm not sure what is really this part, but I will say this drums addition is completely amazing. Really good! -------------- The most precious thing I possess, is knowing the answer's yes Back to top

Milamber Group: Musicians Posts: 2263 Joined: Feb. 2010 Posted: Sep. 20 2010, 22:05 Thanks Delfin it was just a bit of Amarok with some crowd noise added that I drummed over the top of with the Viareggio bootleg thank you's at the end the whole thing took less than 10 mins to make. I'm glad you liked it Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Sep. 21 2010, 05:57 @ Delfín: it's either "Lion" or "Lion Reprise". I'd think it's "Lion Reprise" because there is the extremely fast solo, but it may be a mix of both. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Delfín Group: Members Posts: 667 Joined: Nov. 2000 Posted: Sep. 21 2010, 10:07 I mean, I knew what this is in terms I know it's a part from Amarok although I don't dominate all the names on it (I know a devoted Amarokian for that) but i meant about the mix, the drums, and everything. Brings inspiration for doing things like that, I probably have a few but don't know how to upload them. If i find out, I'll share them soon.

Delfín Group: Members Posts: 667 Joined: Nov. 2000 Posted: Sep. 25 2010, 05:19 Where could I put something that I've done?? I'd like to share ir with you, it's an mp3. Any advice??? Thanx. -------------- The most precious thing I possess, is knowing the answer's yes Back to top
