Some often say that even though they like this Mike Oldfield album, they can't be blind on its flaws.
I know personally Tubular Bells since like 9 months, listened to it a hundred times maybe and I still can't identify its problems.
What do you think about it? Are there really any flaws?
So don’t evade the surgeon’s blade
Cos the answer could be in your mind
Maybe one cut and we’ll find
We’re just a wavelength behind

But we are entwined

And I know what you need

I guess you could say it has some flaws. Some instruments are off-key, and there are a couple of places where some instruments are untight. There is also the weird growling on side 2. But I actually think the imperfection is a charm. It gives the music some edge, as well as an aura of spontanity.

^ I could agree with you but I thought that the grow was artistically meant though.
