What a radical change from the previous albums ! ..but I love them all esp. Platinum live !!! I think I'd kind of expected it, after Guilty. I'd have been slightly disappointed, it's weaker, as illustrated by the fact it's better live. It cannot been considered to be a masterpiece. Back to top

You get Ommadawn, and while you're still shocked, boom, Incantations. Imagine being a fan in 1973-5: TB, HR and then Ommadawn in the space of just over 2 years - it's just as well there was a 3 year break until Incantations  It's better to be fan now. You are born and imidietly OMGWFTBBQ so many albums! And then you listen to them for years again and again and again and again and wonder when you get tired of them and again and again and again still not tired and again and again and again ok I tried other music too but you still continue again and again and again... Never ending story! Back to top

Olivier Group: Super Admins Posts: 1866 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Aug. 11 2011, 12:14 So you mean that with "only" TB, HG, O, Inc, you'd get tired of listening to them again and again and again? But with The Millennium Bell in the mix, it's not tiring? Back to top

You get Ommadawn, and while you're still shocked, boom, Incantations. The gap between Ommadawn and Incantations seemed like an AGE at the time.  W'd thought he'd given up recording. Then a bigger shock was that the guy on the cover of Incanations wasn't actually Mike Oldfield but someone else - what had happenned to the hippy from Ommadawn?  The music however was spectacular, his best.

CJJC Group: Members Posts: 210 Joined: Aug. 2010 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 06:15 All you chaps who ordered replacements should expect to see them in the next few days. I suggest that if you haven't received it by next Friday, getting in touch with the company. -------------- IMHO Back to top

Nacho Group: Members Posts: 230 Joined: Feb. 2000 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 07:18 Which colour is it, orange or blue? Back to top

Pat Gleeson Group: Members Posts: 282 Joined: Nov. 2003 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 07:25 As a matter of interest, did all of you so far who have received discs order directly from Universal ? Back to top

CJJC Group: Members Posts: 210 Joined: Aug. 2010 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 07:37 There was no identifying mark on the envelope, but I contacted the same Universal-related email address as everyone else. Disc is visually identical to the original (though I haven't checked the serial numbers etc) -------------- IMHO Back to top

spark Group: Members Posts: 152 Joined: June 2009 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 07:48 Hi Pat , Yes I contacted Universal  but didnt buy it from them. Its the same blue label as the original , might have a different number on the inner disc but I havnt checked . Back to top

spark Group: Members Posts: 152 Joined: June 2009 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 07:50 You would have thought there would have been a letter or note from Universal . If you think about it you could contact them not even having bought the disc and get one for free . Back to top

So if it is blue, it is intended to replace the Deluxe Edition disc, as the normal edition is orange. Thanks! Back to top

leesonar Group: Members Posts: 103 Joined: Aug. 2007 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 10:16 I received my cd replacement discs today, no sign of vinyl replacements as yet. Back to top

pauken Group: Members Posts: 105 Joined: May 2005 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 10:46 I received my replacement CD today. Yay! The glitch at 12'38'' is now fixed which is nice. However, I may be imagining things but I don't think I am, I can hear a smaller, much less obvious glitch now at 12'40'' which wasn't there before. Does anybody else hear it? The second entrance of the double clap and sleighbells is ever so slightly early as if a tiny bit has been chopped out. It's very slight though and nothing like as noticeable. Back to top

Bell Boy Group: Members Posts: 108 Joined: June 2009 Posted: Aug. 12 2011, 12:11 Yes just had my new CD...havent played it yet... I hope there isnt a new glitch ..!!!! BUT haven't had any reply from Universal regarding the  vinyl... Even though Ive emailed them 3 times.... Back to top
