A great source of Rarities for average Oldfield fan

if you somehow can't dig the net in search of his many unpublished and rare tracks this is the place - almost half of material from here was never published on CD - "Guilty","Jungle gardenia","Cuckoo song","Mistake","Waldberg (the peak)" and many more....there are also some live performances like amazing "platinum suite" improvisation (Oldfield proves here that he is one of best live guitar players)
there are also many of his hits like "Moonlight shadow","Family man","Etude" - some of them appeared in slightly shortened versions - and also pieces of his majestic long moods like "Tubular bells" or "Ommadawn")
"Complete" is a valuable source of Mike "Treasures" and a good starting place for starting Mike Fans.

Almost complete Mike Oldfield

This album features a glimpse of the range of style that mike covered up to the Killing Fields album. While it only contains snippets of the long tracks it covers all the singles, except "On horseback". Sides 1 to 3 may be not be for the Oldfield purists,(see above review), but the unreleased live tracks on side four are probable the best thing Oldfield has ever put on record. Maggie Reilly fans should also take note of it. This side should be played loud!!!!!!
