Last night I found a great Oldfield page. I think it's called Argiers.com
But anyway, it was for the first time that I actually saw the proof that an vinyl version exists of Elements. It looks very very nice, and I do hope to get it one day...
You may find it if you look at the 'LP' section, in the file of 'ENGLAND', because there is a list of lp's from various countries, and I found it in the English section.

Yes, www.argiers.com is a splendid page from one of the greatest Mike's collectors, Felix!

I also have a vinyl copy of "The Best of Mike Oldfield Elements" Well, I really had two copies, but I made a gift to a friend of mine!!!
You can try Ebay... they appear regularly.

The last Mike LP published in vinyl was "The Songs of Distant Earth", that it is really hard to find,... I read that only 10,000 copies were pressed... well you can look for the 9,999 out there!!  :D

And Light and Shade is the first Mike album that has not seen a tape release...

Well, I have tried e-bay many times, but so far, no luck... But I keep trying. Distant Earth was quite hard to hind, but I did got it in the end. And I believe it was only 1,000 copies made, and not 10,000...

Btw. So tres lunas was also on Tape? Didn't know that... I did see XXV once at a gas station, but no more recent ones.
I remember one day when I was just a beginning fan (I was 11 I think) I saw in this shop the tape of Islands, and I remember going crazy and begging my dad to let me have it... but he didn't  :/ ... Oh, well... the following Christmas I did get it after all! On cd

hi am a regular a felix's site its cool and thats where i found out about elements, which i have just got!  :D  :D  :D  :D

was difficult to find but now i am soooooooo happy to have it, now i have all the vynil album releases, also will have a copy of TBII and TSODE to sell in the near future, both on vynil, i'll let the community know in the relevant forums when they go up for sale  :D

also TSODE was limited to 1,000 copies so it is very hard to find, it was just pure luck that my local record shop had a copy.
