Free Music Notes for Discovery
Free Music Review: Superp, one of my 20 favorite albums.
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is one of my all time favorites. I'm a huge Mike Oldfield fan, and this album got it started. This album includes some of Mike's best vocal pieces, using haunting vocals and sythezisers, and powerful guitars. The vocals of Maggie Reilly is breathtaking as usual. Even the male vocal pieces here are excellent. There is not a single track I don't like on this album. "The Lake" is a beautiful instrumental piece that will take you out of this world. "To France", "Tricks of the Light","Poison Arrows", "Discovery" and "The Lake" are my favorite tracks. The emotion of this album is very high, with some strong melodies. I find the guitar play of Discovery are especially powerful.
A fan of Mike and Maggie would surely buy this album, but I suggest there is great reason for people unfamiliar with his work to invest in this album as well. It shows Mike's great range and talent, and give a very original sound that leaves you wanting more. This album will appeal to both the emotional, spiritual and intellectuals. A nice blend of Ambient Rock, popular and instrumental, with an ageless feel to it.
If you want an Oldfield album that shows a the range of Mike's work, I suggest you buy "the complete". If you want his instrumental masterworks buy "Tubular Bells" or "Amarok". But if you want his best songs, and I might at Maggie's best as well buy this album. It has left me spellbound.
