I was listening to Elements true the Windows Media player, and where surfing the Media Library in the meantime. By my suprise i saw a Elements box, containing 4 cd's and released in 2002. I Searched the internet and couldnt find any information about this release. Even not on Tubular.net
So i decided to call my favorite music store to towns away, and they where familiar with this cd. So i ordered it.

Does anyone know this cd? cause it isn't mansioned on the forum.

Greets,

R@inbow

p.s. This is the link to th CD

It's a re-release of the Elements boxed set from 1993 - the only difference is the packaging.
It was mentioned in the news forum back in November 2001 when the news about the release first became available.

That's right - there was the 4 CD set Elements (CD BOX 2) and then the 1 CD Elements (VTCD18 in the UK), subtitled 'the best of' (which could be read as both the best of elements or the best of Mike Oldfield...). There was also the video, of course...

The packaging shown on the windows media player site is for the old set - the new one is slightly different, being a standard CD sized box (but deeper, of course, so as to hold 4 CDs in jewel cases plus a booklet) rather than the larger one of the original.
