 Rating:  - Hiiiiiiiiii Rating: - Good up to 1/2Some of Mike Oldfield CD's are half songs with words and half instrumental. I find that I prefer his instrumentals more, so I burned a CD with just instrumentals on it from his CD,s entitled Discovery, Island, and Crises. I found that I listened to it more then I would have otherwise. And remember to listen with headphones now and then, you'll be amazed. Rating: - Divided I standFirst song, 20 minutes "Crises" is as good as "Tubular bells". The first 2 minutes are maybe a bit too new age but the rest is really uncredible especially the Watcher and the tower part. The great Admam Ant is playing guitar on this song. Song "In high places" is sang by Jon Anderson (I just can't resist him). I did not know it was Oldfield who did "Shadow on the wall", a song that I liked a lot back in early 80's. Well, it is on this album. "Taurus" is a excellent accoustic guitar piece. The 2 others songs are okay but I am not attracted to women's voice. Rating: - RediscoveringAbout two weeks ago i listened once again to "Crises" and i found it not as bad as after buying...i have rediscovered it as a CD with some really great moments,the title track simply growes ojn you after many listenings... ok, here are my impressions about all tracks... 1)"CRISES" - about 21 minutes long suite. Starts with a soft theme played by a synth and tubular bells. after it we have a two small guitar based themes.the second one has even a loops of car engine sound and ambulance... Later it grows in more and more energetic and full of agressive guitars title song (Mike sings as a main vocalist in this suite). The title song is an angry anthem, where mike roars "Crises, crises!!! you can't get away...". it ... Read More: Rating:  - Crises ~Mike OldfieldThis cd is awesome. If your looking for very good music and fantastic drumming this cd is your best choice. Mike Oldfield has put together some very fine music rendations the guitar and drums blend together to form a sound that is mystical and alive .I reccomend this and give it a 5 star you must buy it and sit back,close you eyes and enjoy some awesome music |
