^ it's a bonkers album. Normally I don't like those sort of things but this is Oldfield! He kinda made it as a 2 finger salute to Richard Branson at the time, Branson being the 'cloth eared' one!

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Impossible to choose between Mike Oldfield's Amarok and Anthony Phillips's Slow Dance!

Indeed it is a bit of a cobbled together job, even having to use the rehearsal footage for 'Mother' - still a terrific watch tho. |

The Wall in Berlin: the live performance was so bad that they needed a lot of post production to make it listenable. In the end is quite a studio album. My vote goes to Fish. His debut has three songs in a row that are great. Guess which ones...

Steve Hackett beats them all, at least in my book.

Yeah, you're right. It should have been The Wall: Live in Berlin 1990, where Roger appears to enjoy dressing up as an ultra-right-wing dictator with neo-Nazi symbiology acting as a backdrop . Who said Roger Waters is anti-Semitic? |

I thought In the Flesh came out in 2000. Fish gets my vote.
