Virgin Records first four albums were all released on the same day - May 25th 1973.  Three of those albums are in this poll, but which do you prefer?

Although I really like The Faust Tapes, I never tire of TB.

Don't know the Faust Tapes Embarrassed
I really love the Flying Teapot, but if the opponent is TB, my vote has to go to Oldfield.

Tubular Bells isn't as good as some other Oldfield albums, nor as good as either of those other albums.  Faust for me.

Faust by far.

Fauusst. Tubular Bells gets old real fast, and yeah I agree with Colin, no where near as good as the other Oldfield albums. Ommadawn blows it out of the water.

Mike Oldfield.

The guy composed and edited Tubular bells with simple A-Track player with a recording feature on it when he was I think 21.

Brilliant album. Huge winner here. :)

I only know Tubular Bells so out of respect to those other albums I decline to vote. I'm also with others that TB is eclipsed by the next 3 albums although it still has many genius moments nevertheless.

He was younger, he composed it when he was 18 ~ 19.

It is in no way eclipsed by his next three albums. He has never eclipsed it.

The first and the third are both awesome, love the absurdist humor which is a bit more evident in GonG.
