My upload (Thanks, B&R!).

Oldfield regained control of his original tapes now, 35 years after this album launched Virgin Records. He took them home and created this 2009 remix.

This is such an incredible album, and to hear it cleaned up a bit, changed up slightly. What a good old friend! Completely unlistenable to the the MTV/ADHD generation, I bet.

Plus...

Tubular bells!

It's always nice to hear this every 20 years or so. But that's enough. I'm good thru 2029.

My sentiment exactly. If there was doobie involved I might bump it up a little. But then again, no. No I wouldn't.

Use to fire up a doobie and listen to this in the pitch dark. Somenights would scare me terribly! Loved it then and now.......a 10!

Yes, this remix sounds a little different.  But I'm still enjoying it after so many years.

Not a bad remix and I usually don't go for those at all.

2009 remix. Hmm. It seems a little more electronic-y, a little harsher, a little cleaner, colder, more transparent. Not sure I like it as much. I fear change.
Still a 10, though.

I was just talking to someone about this tune the other day.

I said it was one of the most perfect soundtrack selections ever.

Good stuff! Thanks for adding it, Bill! {#Clap}

A classic from the ol' days. Wow. Wore this one out way back when. Good choice, Bill.
