His older sister Sally sings on some of his cuts.
I've come to really enjoy the complexity and tones of all the instruments he uses.
I crank the stoner rock. Mike's music I enjoy at a much lower volume, like classical. It's the textures and the journey that I enjoy.

Female singer Maggie Reilly also appears on several Mike Oldfield's albums.

Quote From Wikipedia:

"Most notably, she performed lead vocals on the Oldfield songs "Family Man", "Moonlight Shadow", "To France", and "Foreign Affair", all of which were international hits in the early 1980s."

What a beautiful voice!

Hot in Ohio today, so:
Foreigner..... Unusual Heat
Next up is Foghat....Live
I believe it's hot pretty much everywhere. I know it is down here; about baked to a crisp Saturday at E's softball tournament. I'd forgotten how tough softball players have to be to put up with that heat all day and half the night.

Have you seen the drum cam for Pneuma? If not here it is.


Harry Nilsson 'Nilsson Shmilsson'
I watched 'Goodfellas' tonight, which always inspires me to start listening to some Stones, Donovan or Nilsson.
Fave track track has to be 'Jump into the fire' as used in that scene.

That song is one of my favorites of his - haven't heard it for a long time and thanks for posting this. Good memories.
