		Oldfield has tried several musical styles but Tr3s Lunas are Mike’s return to the roots of his production, although he did dress them in electronic clothes.
		Oldfield’s new musical jewel has double effect: it is very reliable medicine for careworn soul as well as it multiplies pleasure of happy people.
		Present music of Mike Oldfield is probably inspired by sunny ambient of Mediterranean islands where Oldfield moved from the foggy loneliness of native England.

	ABC Rural Legends: Maurice Binstead
		The tall, silver-haired figure of Maurice Binstead has spent a lot of time in the lead, whether in the saddle mustering his beloved bullocks, or standing at the front of a crowd of angry cattlemen in the fight to unite the beef industry.
		Maurice Binstead became the Union's second president, a job he held from 1978 to 1981.
		And Maurice says proof of their success is that these days in Australia, we don't often eat a bad piece of meat, thanks to a meat language and quality standards developed over the years.

	<1169 And Counting.....
		Maurice Oldfield was a regular visitor to 'The Highwayman Lounge Bar' in Comber, County Down, and to Balloo House, a pub/restaurant several miles away at Killinchey, where his favourite drink was vodka and tomato juice, which he refused to call a 'Bloody Mary'.
		Maurice was still 'flashing' when two uniformed RUC men from 'Golf' Division walked into the toilets and arrested him, bringing an end not only to the career of the Ulster Security Co-ordinator (sic) but to an era in Irish history.
		Oldfield's association with 'John Bull's other island' began in 1969 after British troops were put onto the streets by Harold Wilson.

		Included was Oldfield's musical adaptation of "The Song of Hiawatha," grandiose but empty; there was a nice sense of the dramatic when it came to dynamic range, but no sense of time — the piece ran far too long as Oldfield searched for enough musical ideas to prop the whole thing up.
		Oldfield's stinging guitar work is in evidence, and some synthesized bagpipes try to lend it an air of majesty, but ultimately this recording doesn't really voyage much of anywhere.
		Oldfield's multifaceted talents are brought to the surface through each of these tracks, whether it's the numerous styles of guitar or the delightful unison of keyboards, woodwinds, and percussion.

		November 1979 found a dapper Oldfield softshoe shuffling his way back onto the scene with a swinging new version of Gershwin's "I Got Rhythm", Wendy Roberts taking the lead vocal.
		The choice of song was a symbolic nod to a composer of an earlier generation who had also cut through barriers of social snobbery to write both pop and symphonic works.

	Oldfield, Mike - Platinum - Groove Unlimited
		The last four, whilst not bad, are not Mike Oldfields best attempts at vocal tracks and pale into insignificance behind other classics such as Moonlight Shadow and To France.
		The main work of art on the album is, as is to be expected from the title, the first four tracks, which are collectively entitled Platinum.
		Finally, the fourth track is in my opinion the best of them all, a haunting melody that eclipses every other track on the CD and one that could stand on its own quite happily as a solo piece.

		Oldfield was given the brief of taking overall control of all intelligence gathering and collation and he swiftly established a directorate known as ‘The Department’.
		Oldfield lasted six months in Northern Ireland before he was quietly removed.
		Despite Oldfield’s departure, officially because of ‘mental fatigue’, the tighter liaison between the undercover units of the RUC and British Army was to continue and during the 1980s there seems to have been a merging of units at the operational level.

		Sir Maurice, of course, is dead, but both Chapman Pincher and Anthony Cavendish have testified that Sir Maurice told them of this meeting with Wilson.
		He might have suspected that feelings against Wilson ran high in the office, but now he was learning that half of his staff were up to their necks in a plot to get rid of the Prime Minister Ironically, his first reaction was anger with Maurice.

		It was the reaction of an honest copper and great believer in the role of intelligence in national security, appalled that such behaviour by any man in a supreme position of trust should remain covered up to suit the establishment.
		He also told me that the prime minister had withdrawn Oldfield's security clearance and suspended him from his intelligence job, though he had been allowed to continue, briefly, after inquiries had shown that he had not been flmailed and had promised to restrain himself.
		Sir Maurice, who was unsuspected at that time, had insisted that the official should be removed because he was flmailable!

		In her working life, she was Education Officer for Granada Television and her job meant she had to travel around the country but she never forgot her church and the village of Over Haddon.
		Over Haddon seems an unlikely birthplace for a former head of MI6, a position Maurice Oldfield rose to when he was appointed Director of the Secret Intelligence Service, in 1973, by Edward Heath.
		The former craft centre and café are sadly missed since their closure, replaced with cottages mainly to be used as second homes and for holiday accommodation.

	It May Not Be Too Late by Professor Revilo P. Oliver (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-12)
		Pincher's gossip was reported to Wilson and sent him into such a panic that he became "paranoid" with fear of surveillance.
		He sought help from Sir Maurice Oldfield, the [reportedly Jewish!] head of MI6 (the arm of MI5 for operations abroad, i.e., espionage, which is euphemistically called 'counter-intelligence').
		Oldfield later, meeting Pincher, told him of Wilson's panic, whereupon Pincher, in a book published in 1976, declared that "certain officers inside MI5....were actually trying to bring down the Labour Government." But, you see, that was just Pincher's gossip that had come back to him.

		In fact Oldfield was eventually responsible for most of the work at the Australian end and the team was known by many people as Oldfield's rather than Macartney's.
		At one stage the Australians were in dire distress with 6 wickets down for 29 and batting one short with Oldfield injured.
		Although this was only the third match of the tour, it already seemed as if Woodfull rather than Macartney would be the danger man and when the former had been in a short time, Foster asked Hennessey how he proposed to get him out.

		According to one former MI6 man, Maurice Oldfield had been involved with two key men who worked with MI6 - Maurice Foley MP and Ronald Burroughs, in the Biafran-Nigerian war in 1969.
		Ronald Burroughs, who was then in Belfast with the cover title - ' British Government Representative', had prepared much of the groundwork for Maurice Foley MP since his arrival five months earlier.
		With 'Sir' Maurice Oldfield only now being exposed for what he was, it is still too early to predict how much more about him and his role in recent Irish history will emerge.

		This episode is the subject of Robert Fisk's "The Point of No Return" (1975) and is summarised by Paul Foot in "Who Framed Colin Wallace?" (1990).
		What followed thereafter was a bloodbath in which the extremist faction of the British state went on the rampage, much to the disgust of people like the then-head of MI6, Maurice Oldfield.
		In line with the general disaffection with the ever more extreme and irrational Thatcher and her cohort, the punk Thatcherites, the British state apparatus came more and more under the control of "moderates", as evidenced most spectacularly in the putsch of 1990 when Thatcher was replaced by John Major.

		Maurice Oldfield the highly successful head of MI6 between 1973 and 1978 was interrogated on several occasions about being the “Fifth Man” owing to his admitted homosexuality.
		It was only with the appointment of the safe hands of a MI6 ‘insider’, the widely travelled Maurice Oldfield, that there was a collective sigh of relief from field officers.
		Both Cavendish and Young regard Oldfield highly and it is the latter who claims Oldfield was instrumental in keeping Britain out of the Vietnam War by his balanced judgements, whereas the hawks in the Pentagon had a naïve Kennedy completely in their grasp.
