Tubular Bells 2003 - do not treat it like a brand new album!, August 28, 2003
Reviewer: Mike Chadwick (see more about me) from Gdynia, poland
Well it is very hard to judge TB 2003. I must say after comparing TB from 1973 with a new version that i prefer Older one. Why? it was spontanic. It was romantic, Melancholic and full of heart. Mike was using only few guitars (for those who do not know it was Fender telecaster, Fender precision bass and one acoustic and classical guitar) and not so many instruments as you may though. Mandolins and some of other sounds were created using Electric guitar mixed and changed in studio to sound like, let's say, bagpipes. In 1973 mike was not a superstar and a well known genius player. He was just lucky guy with a huge talent who had an opportunity to record in a professional Studio his own ideas and melodies. It was all very spontanic...In seventies his music was full of passion and very personal ("ommadawn", "Hergest ridge"), while when he joined more mainstream style of music ("Moonlight shadow") he became a superstar with a lot of money, but with no really original concepts for his new records. yes i agree, "Five miles out" or "Islands" are a brilliant works too, but looking back to seventies it was nothing compared to emotional bombs that "Ommadawn" and other albums were. The music slowly was loosing it's soul. With "Amarok" he proved that he can still compose such a genius music like TB, but later he mostly made mechanic (in real sense - all of his new works were made with computers and synths) works and he lost many of his splendor and talet that he had before.
I am afraid about Mike's.future "guitars" and "millenium bell" were simply some wierd mistakes and they contained only a small shadow of some of his older works. Ok, even compare it to "songs of thr Distant earth" (his best from new period) and see how piontless he had gone. "tres lunas" was not his real studio album. It contained a music to a computer game - to computer game it was originaly composed, and in a computer game it sounds the best. those cyberspace stuff just don't work now.
TB 2003 is Very good album.Very good! But only if you forgot that he recorded the same thirty years ago.
i felt satisfied when i heard the BASS along with main piano motive in first miute.in 1973 it sounded thiny and quiet, now it blows of your subwoofer. the sound is crystal clear and without any noises. But with those changes, the magic of original Tubular bells had vanished. In some parts you could heard Mike's fingers sliding on his guitar, now it is all so crystal-clear perfect, without any sound flaws.
I heard that he is planing to Re-record "OMMADAWN" and "HErgest ridge. for music - 4 STARS
for idea - 2 STARS
for all - 3,5 STARS...
