Mike Oldfield - Ommadawn (2012) [SHM-SACD]
Ommadawn is the third record album by Mike Oldfield, released in 1975 on Virgin Records. The cover photograph was by David Bailey. It peaked at #4 on the UK Albums Chart.
As with Hergest Ridge and Tubular Bells, Ommadawn is another two-movement work. Oldfield sought out the ancient Celtic influence on English music and composed for traditional instruments such as uilleann pipes on the original LP version. A set of Northumbrian smallpipes were also recorded, and credited to “Herbie”, but this recording was not used on the album.
The album was recorded at Oldfield’s home at Hergest Ridge, The Beacon, and was the only album to be recorded there (though Oldfield’s previous album shares its name with the location).
A quadrophonic remix version of Ommadawn was released on Boxed a year later. Oldfield’s 1990 album Amarok was conceived as a sequel to Ommadawn, but turned into something quite different; Virgin had been pushing Oldfield for a sequel to Tubular Bells.[3] Excerpts from Ommadawn were featured in the 1979 NASA film, The Space Movie.
The topic of Ommadawn is covered in the final episode of the Tony Palmer documentary series All You Need is Love; episode 17 “Imagine (New Directions)”.
