Mike Oldfied is, well, Mike Oldfield. We was moderately new age/new wave in the 80s, pushing the boundaries of pop a bit, in the same kind of way that, say, Vangelis or Jean Michel Jarre were. Um... not sure if that helps any or not. Mike Oldfield did have one more mainstream/reasonably popular album called Discover including "Poison Arrows" and "To France" which I think both got some airplay. Again, though, back in the 80s.
Ahh I C . Cool. I still have all my old tapes, still listen to some of them in my car when I don't feal like craweling to the back to switch out cds or when the changer has over heated again...
