Welcome to the start of your weekend. Here is what’s New In Music This Week: May 26th.
My top choice doesn’t easily fit into any genre, but it’s an oldie that you’ll either love or hate:
TUBULAR BELLS – Mike Oldfield (Universal Music Group)
It’s hard to believe that Tubular Bells came out 50 years ago. But here we are. This is a

use in the film The Exorcist (which is also 50 years old this year.) It’s hard to get that
haunting melody out of your head.
In addition to the two suites found not he original album, a second record contains a demo
for Tubular Bells 4, the music as used in the opening ceremonies of the 2012 Olympic Games
in London, a remix, the original single and more.
