I agree that we should give Mike some time. Looking at Guitars and Millenium Bell, they were just done too quickly. About his record-label: it was rumored (i don't know if it is confirmed) that Mike joined Virgin again. "The best of Tubular Bells" was released by Virgin, so maybe it's true.
Anyway, I think it is like this: Mike will be releasing Music VR, than a new album, and than the re-record of Tubular Bells. Just my opinion.
And I really hope they will create a new, really awesome-looking bell. Maybe with computer graphics, or with a real statue (which may look better). I really was dissapointed with the bell from "Best of Tubular Bells". They just cut out the bell from TB1 album and pasted it on black background, obviously done by an amateur photoshop user. You can even see the blue colors and light at the edges of the bell.*sigh* With the MB they just used the bell from TB3. Also dissapointing. So I really hope for a new, re-designed bell done by a professional (maybe by the orginal TB1 bell creator)
