Oldfield. Mike - Guitars (1999)

The 20th album from this artist from England.

Mike Oldfield does the bass and guitars here. 

A Mike Oldfield with only bass and guitars...... OK, it was not something I was really looking forward to spend some time with.

All the drums and percussion sounds is guitar made on this album. Ditto for the more keyboards sounds.

This is a real solo - album with no contributions from anyone else.

The music is a bit new-age ambient and very mellow. There is no guitar solos and wild runs up and down the guitars.

Very pedestrian music, indeed.

This forty minutes long album is therefore a half decent album, only saved by his talent and some good guitars.

Only devoted fans of Mike Oldfield should seek out this album.

1.5 points
