Produktbeschreibungen


Die Eröffnungstakte dieses Klassikeralbums fanden damals ihren Weg zu Millionen von Menschen in sämtlichen Kinos dieser Welt: Der Horrorschocker Der Exorzist benutzte Mike Oldfields Tubular Bells als Filmmusik.
Nicht lange zuvor hatte Richard Branson sein Label Virgin Records lanciert und Mike Oldfield unter Vertrag genommen. Bald darauf stürmte Tubular Bells die Hitparaden auf der ganzen Welt.

In der Hauptsache enthält das Werk Instrumentalnummern, die fast alle von Oldfield Instrument für Instrument im Alleingang eingespielt wurden. Sie entführen den Hörer in bislang unerhörte Klangwelten, bis es schließlich, unter der Ankündigung eines jeden hinzugemischten Instrumentes durch Viv Stanshall, zum orgiastischen Höhepunkt kommt. --Paul Clark

Review
by Mike DeGagne

Mike Oldfield's groundbreaking album Tubular Bells is arguably the finest conglomeration of off-centered instruments concerted together to form a single unique piece. A variety of instruments are combined to create an excitable multitude of rhythms, tones, pitches, and harmonies that all fuse neatly into each other, resulting in an astounding plethora of music. Oldfield plays all the instruments himself, including such oddities as the Farfisa organ, the Lowrey organ, and the flageolet. The familiar eerie opening, made famous by its use in The Exorcist, starts the album off slowly, as each instrument acoustically wriggles its way into the current noise that is heard, until there is a grand unison of eccentric sounds that wildly excites the ears. Throughout the album, the tempos range from soft to intense to utterly surprising, making for some excellent musical culminations. Mandolins and Spanish guitars are joined by grinding organs and keyboards, while oddball bells and cranking noises resound in the distance. In the middle of the album, guest Vivian Stanshall announces each instrument seconds before it is heard, ending with the ominous sounding tubular bells, a truly powerful and dominating instrument. The most interesting and overwhelming aspect of this album is the fact that so many sounds are conjured up yet none go unnoticed, allowing the listener a gradual submergence into each unique portion of the music.
