Mike Oldfield – Incantations reissue
Out on July 25th, legendary artist Mike Oldfield will release reissue of "Incantations". The album, which was originally released in November 1978, was Oldfield’s first and only double studio album. Comprising of four parts of the title track, it was a masterpiece of minimalism, with Oldfield again playing many of the instruments, with old friends including David Bedford conducting the choir and orchestra, Pierre Moerlen on drums and Mike’s sister Sally on vocals.

Remastered by Oldfield himself, the packages contain a variety of rare material; "Incantations" contain a brand new 5.1 mix on DVD, as well as footage from Oldfield’s 1979 concert tour that supported the album. Both CD formats also include "Guilty", Oldfield’s legendary 1979 single recorded in New York City at the height of the disco movement.
