For me it would be Tubular Bells 2.It has everything for me. Back to top

What kind of music does he/she like etc... I have lent many cd's to friends of MO, and with every person I gave a different album. For example, I just lent Discovery and Hergest Ridge to a girlfriend, because I thought she had to relax (she was under great pressures, so...)   Tubular Bells 2 is generally a really good album for "outside" people, yes. I think I will lent this cd to those persons in the future. -------------- -The mark of a good musician is to play one note and mean it- Mike Oldfield - 1980 Back to top
