Tubular Bells - Mike Oldfield (1974)
Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells is a standout in popular music history. A friend had the tape - a reel tape - and we sat transfixed listening to it. The world had certainly been given a shake. But Oldfield's challenge was never met by anyone else and TB proved to be a freakish event which later landed in a freak's movie, The Exorcist. The album could never had happened had it not been for the advent of the multi-track recorder but MO is an accomplished musician and went on to record many albums, some very creative pieces like Amarok. YouTube Listen.
