Mike Oldfield - Guitars - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Ever the sonic experimentalist, Mike Oldfield uses guitars exclusively (strummed, plucked, struck, sampled, and more) to create every sound on InchGuitarsInch. The more delicate, acoustic pieces, such as InchSummit Days,Inch InchMuse,Inch and InchEnigmatismInch possess the meditative, elegant quality listeners have come to expect from Mike Oldfield. By contrast, the crunchier rock guitar ensembles seem to lack his usual sense of order and purpose. InchFour Winds,Inch an unfinished cluster of distorted racket, particularly misses it's mark. Innovative and at times beautiful, InchGuitarsInch remains another intriguing experiment from one of modern music's most ambitious icons. Album Tracks 1. Muse 2. Cochise 3. Embers 4. Summit Day 5.
