I am going to risk whatever image for hip or smarts I might have and confess: I still enjoy Tubular Bells, both Oldfield's original and a marvelous symphonic version thereof (by David Bedford, on which Oldfield himself played guitar and bass - it was called The Orchestral Tubular Bells and was reissued a few years ago) and Ommadawn (from 1976)..."

I can't stand the Orchestral version. The music simply was not 'designed' for conventional instruments.

My personal faves, in no particular order:

Tubular Bells I
Tubular Bells II
Hergest Ridge
Ommadawn (on my car stereo this morning!)
Five Miles Out
Platinum
Incantations
Islands
The Songs of Distant Earth
Lots of 'rarities' such as Don Alfonso, Rite of Man, Portsmouth, Wreckorder Wrondo, Mike's Reel, etc.

Ones I cannot stand:

Earth Moving
Tubular Bells III
The Millennium Bell
Heaven's Open
The Killing Fields
Voyager

Ones I am "indifferent" about:

Discovery
QE2
Crises (well, some cuts are OK)

Add Levi Strause, (some one help me with the spelling) That company contributes heavily to Sarah Brady and her gun grabbing goons. Too bad, I love the jackets. I'm just gonna wear mine untill it falls off and switch to Wrangler Jackets.
Patrick Swasy (can't spell that one either!) also makes me want to hurl. I think it was Dirty Dancing and Ghost that brought out the gag reflex.
