I will intend to buy both deluxe editions, but mainly for the live material. This was a golden era for Mike on the live circuit, which I unfortunately missed at the time, so it will be good to get a pristine CD version. As for the disc 1's of both Platinum and QE2, there isn't really much there that the average Oldfield fan does not already have. A bit unimaginative really, and disappointing that "Sally" is not included in some incarnation or another, and similarly it was also a bit disappointing that the "Space Movie" version of Part 4 of Incantations was missed off of the Incantations deluxe edition. But, that's life. And, besides, those live cuts will more than satisfy my appetite. I'm now salivating for the eventual release of a Five Miles Out deluxe edition, which will hopefully also include a nice wedge of live material!!
