So, what's your opinion of Platinum? I am curious because it took me some time to appreciate it. Granted, the title track is brilliant, though at first I felt that the drums sounded quite dated. As a matter of fact, I just purchased Five Miles Out, having resisted due to some of the negative reviews I'd read. And again, just like with Platinum, it took several listens. I am not a new Oldfield fan and own most of his releases, but I do have my favorites... And while I am now quite happy to own some of Mike's 80's releases, I admit that I still miss the organic, 'earthy' quality of Hergest Ridge and Ommadawn... But maybe that's just me... Anyhow, I hope you managed to snag the disc from EBay and are enjoying it.
