Eugene S. - 18/Sep/2024  The sixteenth studio album by English musician, songwriter and producer Mike Oldfield, released on 21 November 1994. It is a concept album based on the 1986 science fiction novel The Songs of Distant Earth by Arthur C. Clarke. The album reached No. 24 on the UK Albums Chart.
|  | | Valeriy R. - 14/Oct/2021 A WEA reissue of very interesting and ambient release (1994) from the English multi-instrumentalist, musician and composer. Maybe, there are no his typical hits here but you can listen to rather different tunes and completely different vocalists. I recommend!
| | | Volodymyr Z. - 21/Aug/2018 Very nice album, good relaxing music and super sound from Mike!
| | | Mikhail P. - 02/Mar/2015 Magic price. All known things. Pleasantly to hold in hand.
| |  Ivan S. - 20/Mar/2017 A very nice and mellow album. Really takes you far away to some distant Earth. For best experience, listen with headphones on. Fast delivery, great CD, excellent service. Thank you very much.
| |  Alexandre V. - 31/Dec/2019 Si bien no pude acceder directamente al álbum, sí le pude escuchar en otros medios, es, sencillamente, una de las obras de arte subvaloradas del artista, contiene uno de los temas más místicos si se quiere, alguna vez elaborados por Mike Oldflield: Hibernaculum.
Recomendable al 100%.
| | | Andres V. - 02/Mar/2018 A través de una gran cantidad de sonidos y melodías esta composición nos traslada por distintos ambientes, algunas veces por exóticos mundos y otras por ciudades más mundanas. Tal como el nombre del álbum lo indica, esta es una obra que transporta a sitios distantes, algunas veces actuales y otros ya olvidados.
