	SoundStage! Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells 2003
		And Tubular Bells -- the single -- was a mainstay on the upper end of that program for well over a year.
		The result, Tubular Bells 2003, is as close to a note-for-note replay (re-recording, remake, redo, copy, whatever you want to call it) as he could do.
		If you’re a Tubular Bells lover like me, you’ll want copies of all three releases: vinyl, SACD and this new DVD-A. But if you’re new to this music (and I envy you your initial listen), then this DVD-A of Tubular Bells 2003 is the only copy you’ll need.

	DVD Times - Tubular Bells 2003 on DVD-Audio
		Tubular Bells 2003 has been completely re-recorded by Mike Oldfield, plays all the instruments, and produces the album as he did on the original version.
		Tubular Bells stands alone in pop music history for its complex, pastoral arrangements, the symphonic way it glides from lilting, upbeat moods to dark, threatening passages.
		Tubular Bells was originally dubbed Opus 1 and grew out of studio time gifted by Richard Branson, who, at the time was running a mail-order record retail service.

	DVD-Audio Review: Mike Oldfield - ‘Tubular Bells 2003’
		‘Tubular Bells 2003’ is a re-recording of the original 1973 composition and not to be confused with a new work based on the theme, as was the case with ‘Tubular Bells II’, ‘Tubular Bells III’ and to a lesser extent ‘The Millennium Bell’.
		The 2003 performance is superior, it’s a fuller, more rounded recording, but there are countless times when today’s surround presentation tries to be a bigger star than the music it is intended to convey, and that, to my mind at least, should never be the case.
		Of the three, ‘Tubular Bells II’ is the king, the music is beautifully performed and the footage directed in a measured and engrossing way — watch out for the comic contribution of John Gordon Sinclair (of ‘Gregory’s Girl’, ‘Local Hero’ and ‘Fraggle Rock’ fame) during the ‘Altered State’ sequence, the 1992 incarnation of ‘Caveman’.

	Medialunchbox - Music : Tubular Bells III (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		In the beginning there was Tubular Bells, and it was good.
		"Tubular Bells" now is a brand, because Mike himself sounds convinced that anything that begins with a tinkly piano line and ends with the sound of bells instantly is "Tubular Bells" (check The Millennium Bell).
		As such, what once was a powerful name is banalised, brutalised and beaten to a pulp, because Tubular Bells III is nothing short of godawful.

		Tubular Bells will remain timeless and awe-inspiring, while this remake will date very, very quickly.
		Then, perfectionist Mike Oldfield comes back in 2003 to re-record it, as he was not satisfied by his playing on the original recording.
		If you like tubular bells, if you wish to hear a different take on the same music of lo those many years ago, then you will LOVE this album.

	Tubular Bells 2003
		Just like 'Tubular Bells II', this album is an interpretation that sounds a bit like the original, but is in fact a whole new album.
		Let me assure you that Tubular Bells 2003 is not just a bit of easy money for him (he's got plenty of the stuff already) but is a re-construction of his own work, made with modern equipment and with some new ideas added.
		I still enjoy listening to the 2003 version with an updated Oldfield sound, but for me the original album has less flaws and is way more intresting than this one.

	Welcome to the Official Mike Oldfield Information Service
		If Tubular Bells 2003 is what it takes for Mike to be at peace with the album, having achieved the sound quality he couldn't get thirty years ago, then so be it.
		It may never feel as true and heartfelt as the original, but as Mike turns 50, it's obvious that he looks back at his 30 year old creation with pride and that he has created a worthy successor to one of the most influential albums of all time.
		After the tour his Virgin contract was renegotiated and we have since heard there was a clause that prevented the re-recording of Tubular Bells for 25 years after the original release (either in the original contract or the new re-negotiated deal).

		Piltdown Man - On the original Tubular Bells, the Piltdown Man part was created by speeding up the tape while recording, so that the pitch of Mike's voice was lowered when it was played back.
		Mike had long been a fan of the Monty Python shows and felt that Tubular Bells had a certain Monty Python-like quality to it, with the way hugely contrasting sections of music were juxtaposed carrying a feel of 'and now for something completely different...'.
		Come the 30th anniversary in 2003, with the contract recently expired, Mike felt that the time was right to revisit the work and finally do what he wanted with it.

		If you're a fan of that old warhorse piece of pretentious art rock from the 1970's, namely Tubular Bells, you might want to run down to the local record mart and pick up a CD of it during the next week or so.
		The reason I say this is because at the end of this month Oldfield will be releasing Tubular Bells 2003 to mark the piece's 30th anniversary.
		Originally intended to be a note-for-note re-recording of the piece to bring digital clarity to and correct mistakes in the original, the samples I've heard indicate that Oldfield couldn't help himself and started fiddling where he shouldn't have fiddled.

		Welcome to Tubular Bells 2003 album by on www.nitro-shopping.co.uk the best place to find Tubular Bells 2003 reviews and compare prices on the CD record.
		For Tubular Bells 2003, the ever-perfectionist Mike Oldfield (unhappy, apparently, at the odd bum note on the indubitably classic original) utilises the latest studio techniques and trickery to re-record his flagship classical/folk/rock instrumental masterwork in its bar-for-bar entirety.
		Although the production here is fatter and brighter, playing "spot the musical difference" between this and the one that continues to pay for Richard Branson's hot air balloons may require levels of diligence and dedication bordering on pottiness, which in a way is kind of a relief.

		Since The Exorcist imprinted itself on the American consciousness, Tubular Bells' opening piano piece has since become one of the most recognizeable bits of haunting melodies.
		Having said that, this version of Tubular Bells, 2003, is even more haunting and beautiful than previous versions.
		What must be stated is that Tubular Bells 2003 does not intend to replicate the original precisely.

		Tubular Bells was originally conceived in 1971 by Mike Oldfield, who produced the original demo recording from his own home studio.
		However, the rotating effects of the background electronic bells that are evident in the multi-channel mix are lost in the stereo mix, while the melodic synth pans left to right.

		Oldfield's most famous work is Tubular Bells, an instrumental composition recorded in 1972 and launched in May 25, 1973 as the inaugural album of Richard Branson's Virgin Records label.
		This was followed in 1975 with the pioneering world music piece Ommadawn, and 1978's Incantations which introduced more diverse choral performances from Sally Oldfield, Maddy Prior and the Queen's College Girls Choir.
		This was done to fix many imperfections in the original that existed due to limitations of the recording technologies of the time and limitations in time that he could spend in the recording studio.

		I was having a particularly bad time around about the time of Tubular Bells and that song gave me a lot of support you know, sort of saying this will get better.
