Those are good choices. I'd agree with "Magellan", and probably add a few others. As for long one... "Ommadawn" or "Amarok" for me first before any others. But "Hergest Ridge" and "Tubular Bells" would follow closely.

Five Miles Out is Mike Oldfield's best individual song, easily.

LOL No. It's good, but not that good.

I wish I could say you're joking, but I know by now you're not.... For Girls is a good album, the last good Caravan album in my opinion, but it lacks one thing: Richard Sinclair. At least that's my opinion,.
|
Have to admit, I really liked it (only a first listen, I admit), especially the violas. Richard Sinclair's got a great voice and he's a great bassist, but this struck me with a consistency and attack that neither of those great records entirely convinced me of - though they're both at least 4-star records for me (If I Could... could be a 5 on a good day).

EXACTLY! Neither of those songs have lyrics that should ever, ever, ever at all have been written . If I'd written either of those, I'd have tried to sneakily give the lyrics credit to another band member... I mean, 'centurion of evil', seriously (and the denouement I was mentioning was strictly musical... I never have and never will condone Dream Theater's lyrics until I get to my Awake review, which I'll obviously post under a pseudonym out of shame)

listened to the new Maudlin of the Well, it was ok
listened to the new Mars Volta, it was forgettable
