I'm 54 and heard Ommadawn first time at age 5 in '75. Child of war, heritage in four countries, and five armed conflicts, through last three generations of my family..... Also served as a soldier and most likely have raving PTSD, but I always become gentle when listening to Ommadawn. To top things, I'm part irish, and cherish my self chosen nickname, which is Ommadawn. Ommadawn = the fool ;-) Thank you Mike, for a grand album.

No this isn't right Just because I had never heard of him until today doesn't mean he was ignored. But many are. Why? Because they challenge people. This music is absolutely beautiful. What a gift

The first record I ever bought in my life was Tubular Bells. I still have that record today. My father bought me a Mike Oldfield "Boxed" with Tubular Bells, Hergest Ridge, Ommadawn and Collaborations. It was a collection of wonderful music. Then I saw him live as the second concert in my life on 14 October 1982 in the Cologne Sporthalle. I love his early music and still enjoy listening to it today.

Escuché este tema cuando tenía 10 años. Me dejó una huella que perdura hasta la fecha. Ya lo conocí con Tubular Bells y Hergest Ridge. Era un niño pero desde que escuche la primera nota ya supe que sería mi músico favoríto hasta la eternidad. Este tema es para mí una obra maestra y Return to Ommadawn no se queda rezagada. Lo fuí a ver en directo en Barcelona año 1992 y ojalá pudiera volver a disfrutar de escucharlo en directo una vez más. RESPETO GRANDE. Solo de pensar que se fue a las montañas solo, a componer, producir, tocar instrumento por instrumento y hacer esta maravilla ya lo dice todo de él. GENIO

Normally I go to Ommadawn or Tubular Bells for my regular fix of Mike Oldfield. However every now and then, when I have an hour to spare, I put on Incantations and realise that perhaps this could just about be his greatest masterpiece.

Also, i can hear Olias of Sunhillo all over this, i can't remember which came first and I'm not suggesting copycat stuff, these sounds were just in the air back then.

I think Oldfields work shffers from having too many juvenile voices sounding like a hippie commune. I grew up then so i get it. Just too much sunlight for these dark times.

Why does Mike Oldfield have to sound like he's ringing the neck of a chicken when he plays his guitar?????Aside from that, the music on here is sublime.

When I first became aware of Oldfield it was because of The Exorcist and Tubular Bells, but at that time I wasn't ready for his music. I liked it, of course, but I didn't feel compelled to find more. I was into Broadway in those days (and Disco -- cringe) and soon forgot about him. So, at last, I'm hearing this for the first time and it's all I had hoped.

I've been listening to this album for 42 years and I'm increasingly moved. How crazy! I can't say if he's beautiful or not, I just know that he's essential to me --- a very important part of my life is linked to Ommadawn and that's wonderful!

IMHO the best version of Incantations is on the live album EXPOSED. Much more on the point and same delicacy
