Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells 2003 Limited Edition Blue Vinyl

Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells 2003 Limited Edition Blue Vinyl Album Tubular Bells 2003 is the 22nd studio album by English musician Mike Oldfield, released on 26 May 2003 by Warner Music Spain. It is a digital re-recording of his 1973 album Tubular Bells, released almost 30 years earlier. This is the final album in the Tubular Bells series. Background After the re-recording rights to Oldfield's debut album Tubular Bells had returned to him, he got the idea to re-record it to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the original. He had always been uncomfortable with the original recording because he had only had a few weeks to record it and the technology at the time had been unable to cope with all of his requirements. As a result, mistakes could not be fixed and some instruments were out of tune on the 1973 release. Due to contractual reasons, no re-recordings were allowed for 25 years after the original release. The release of Tubular Bells 2003 took place in the year when Oldfield celebrated his 50th birthday and the 30th anniversary of the original version.
