Description

180g Vinyl Reissue Features Sci-Fi and Space Theme! Direct Metal Master!

Tubular Bells II is the 15th album by Mike Oldfield, released in 1992. The album the first for his new record label, Warner Bros., following an acrimonious departure from Virgin after twenty years was a sequel to Oldfield's 1973 Tubular Bells. The album charted at number 1 in the UK as did its precursor. It is Oldfield's third number one album (after Tubular Bells and Hergest Ridge).

Some of the track titles for Tubular Bells II were taken from Arthur C. Clarke's short stories including "The Sentinel" and "Sunjammer." Other titles referenced a science-fiction or space theme in general. The song "Dark Star" is the title of a John Carpenter sci-fi film released the same year as the first Tubular Bells album.

"...Tubular Bells II succeeds mightily." -Johnny Loftus, allmusic.com
