When Mike Oldfield stepped out on stage at the Olympic Park in Stratford, London on Friday 27th July 2012, it marked his first major live concert performance in his home country for over a decade. However, this was no ordinary show.
Oldfield’s music had been personally selected by Danny Boyle to play a central part in Isles of Wonder, his specially-created work for the Opening Ceremony of the 30th Olympic Games.
Add into that newly-composed material to signal the arrival of the flying Mary Poppins, a spirited rendition of his 1975 UK Top Five single ‘In Dulce Jubilo’ and the beautifully wistful closing coda, and you have eleven-and-a-half minutes of premium Mike Oldfield.
It was an extraordinary night to kick-start an extraordinary Olympics, and this is extraordinary music.
Already one of the most talked about tracks on the Isles of Wonder CD, this strictly limited 12” coloured single is the only place you can hear this on vinyl.
This has only been removed from the packaging to photograph.... This has NEVER been played.
