Five Miles Out is the seventh record album by Mike Oldfield, released at a time when his music was moving away from large-scale symphonic pieces towards a more accessible pop style. Climb a mountain in Tenerife, experience a terrifying airplane flight, and discover Mike's striking vocals in this album which produced 2 singles.
Recently voted by fans on the Mike Oldfield Facebook page as their favourite album of all time, Ommadawn is undoubtably Mike Oldfield at his best.
This short excerpt is a stirring introduction to the much longer original work. We've also added a bonus: listen to a selection of work from the recently released "Return to Ommadawn"
