This is weird timing Steve! I found "Hergest Ridge" on Japanese cd cardboard mini lp sleeve the other day! Sealed for 10 bucks.

I listened to it and I hated it.

 

Almost put me to sleep.

 

 

 

"Tubular Bells" is a classic.

 

Are these versions worth picking up?

 

I'm on the fence.

^^^ Not for everyone I guess bud confused13.gif But yes, these versions are MOST definitely worth it for me. I have never owned any of the remastered issues before, so they're long overdue. I just cannot say no to all those remixes either. There are single disc versions available as well, but I'm too greedy I guess, especially for that period of MO drool1.gif

 

I guess approach with caution for you, but I'm glad you agree TB is an undeniable classic trink39.gif

I have all the vinyl on first edition and the last set of remasters. Not sure if I'll shell out again. Although I did get last year's TB remaster. Yowsa.

Hergest Ridge is a masterpiece, Earl is a philistine in leather pants. tongue.gif

"Hell Bent For Leather" buddy!!!

 

Can't get into that Oldfield album!

Maybe I should give it another spin!

Has anyone nabbed the Deluxes?  Where are you Jaye??!!  biggrin.gif  I have Hergest and Tubular Bells lined up soon, hopefully smile.gif 653.gif atickhum.gif

I passed on these shortly after I first learned of them. I'm happy with the versions of the albums I already have. I really don't need more than one version of the same album. Besides, I couldn't afford it if I wanted to.
