He must be kidding. And the insult to listeners on the outside of the cd. If we don't like it we're "cloth eared"? Whatever. If Mike has to be so defensive as to insult us before we've even listened to the cd then something's wrong. And something is very wrong with the cd; everything. It's boring, pointless, unorganized, just another Oldfield ego trip. Like we needed another? Where did the genius who created Ommadawn go? ... It's a shame, really.
