Tubular Bells - Mike Oldfield

You may recognize this song as the theme from the Exorcist but that is but a piece of an epic Jam.

And it's crazy how Mr Virgin Spacelines made his first million from that track.

How did he make a million from that track? Was he in the exorcist?

He bought the rights to the song. He then licensed it to the guys that made the movie.

Some things are timeless and this piece is one of those things.

Oh, Duh. I forget that Virgin actually has something to do with music. I always associate it with yachts and spaceships these days.

I forgot how great that music was. The musicians were so spot on that I viewed all three parts you posted.
I never saw the live version before. I think he played all the instruments himself on the original album.
Something else I completely forgot...I sat next to his dad on a flight from Heathrow to NYC. Great Family.
Thanks for sharing S&F

He did play all of the instruments on the recording. That's what made it so special for me at the time.
