| | Mike Oldfield - Ommadawn (Music CD) | |
Description
Ommadawn represents a creative peak for Oldfield that is often overshadowed by the huge commercial success of his debutTubular Bells. Oldfield employed the same format he had used on his previous two albums, with both sides of the album comprising a lengthy instrumental collage. This time he drew on a greater range of musical styles, using recurring motifs that had recognisable African, Eastern European and Irish sources (Paddy Moloney of The Chieftains being responsible for the latter). The album was also notable for the way Oldfield collaborated with the other musicians, drawing attention away from his image as the self-styled studio recluse.
