Tubular Bells part 1 (1/2)

Ah, this brings back memories!  I know I've got this on DVD so I can watch it whenever, but seeing it as a Youtube clip takes me back to the beginning when I was just discovering Mike in all his musical glory.  Didn't even know which one of the group he was at the time.  I just remember thinking "F*** me, that guitarist is incredible!"  And then there's one point where it looks like the music's going to break him, and I think he's going to burst into tears.  The emotion, the feeling he seemed to put into every note overwhelmed me, and it's safe to say he had me from that point on.  Of course now I'm older and wiser and slightly less emotional about the whole thing, but back then it was breathtaking to watch.

I assumed he was just overcome by exhaustion.
