[net.records] More on Mike Oldfield

Some small additions to Jeff Richardson's informative Oldfield discography:
  I give many stars to "Exposed", a double live album which captures a great
deal of the energy of an Oldfield concert.  Also, it was recorded with the
BBC's H-matrix quad. system, I believe.
  Another record, available domestically, is "The Orchestral Tubular Bells"
by The London Symphony Orchestra with Oldfield performing an excellent guitar
solo at the end of the first side.  This has been reissued as a "best value"
selection, so it should be had for a good price.
  Finally, Tubular Bells and, I think, Ommadawn, are available on Compact
Discs...  one of the reasons I very much look forward to <$500 CD players.
