Köhntarkösz is the only one I'm disappointed with...I still don't see what makes people think it's such an amazing album (studio versions, at least).
OK, done with being off-topic. |

Yeah, Logan, for fans of that era of TD Zeit is generally regarded as the masterpiece.

Even the one star review makes it seem interesting to me.

Everybody I know has heard at least one TD album in their life because they're simply too major a band not to stumble upon them one way or another. The ratings reflect this IMO. However, I've never heard of this happening to Magma and UZ; their audience is much more limited, the typical niche audience. Hence the higher ratings.

Oddly enough, I stumbled upon Magma long before TD. |

TD by a ton! Oldfield is great but TD does things to my mind that little music can! TD takes me places!

I think that if Mike would stop doing refab versions of Tubular Bells, I might like him even more ... but please ... don't ever ask me if I like Amorok better than Stratosfear or anything else ... I might break something over your left toe!
But in terms of creativity, output and fearlessness, I would say that TD is much more important and what they did in music and their eventual history will probably last a lot longer than Mike will. Edited by moshkito - April 14 2011 at 18:33 |

Interestingly Mike Oldfield owes something to TD for even having a career. Richard Branson formed Virgin records on the back of importing and selling TD albums. Oldfield offered Tubular Bells to just about every major record label but in the end it was only Branson who was prepared to give it a chance.

Thanks for the update on my family history. My wife is related to Richard Branson (although only very very very far related).

too much different to be compared ... I repect TD but I prefer MO. I would compare TD to Kraftwerk for example (I would vote for the Kraftwerk in that case .... )

I dislike both of them, so I won't vote. But I admit I haven't heard much of DT.
