Oldfield, Mike - Hergest Ridge

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON VIRGIN 1974.

Virgin V 2013 made in England.

Vinyl NM. Cover EX.

Released as another lengthy composition, Hergest Ridge was the album that followed Mike Oldfield's momentous Tubular Bells release, with many of the same instrumental elements and methods employed throughout its two sections. Because of the time of its release, Hergest Ridge was overshadowed by the effects of Oldfield's first album for Virgin, but even so, he still manages to invoke some interesting patches of music by using instruments like the glockenspiel, sleigh bells, the lowrey organ, oboes, and a variety of mandolins and guitars to maintain the same type of diversity as Tubular Bells.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Oldfield
