Mike Oldfield Biography
Mike Oldfield was a teenaged, multi-instrumentalist phenomenon who played in various British progressive rock groups (most notably that of Kevin Ayers) before going solo at the ripe age of 20. His first and still most famous release was TUBULAR BELLS in 1973. The first album released by Virgin Records, it became a radio staple and achieved notoriety as the theme from the blockbuster film THE EXORCIST. It is a measure of his talent that the enigmatic Oldfield has continued releasing serious, ambitious works while maintaining a sold fan base decades after his initial success.
