Info for Discovery (Deluxe - Remastered 2015)
Discovery was Mike Oldfield’s ninth studio album. Originally released in June 1984, the UK Top 20 album contains two songs which Oldfield would later include on Two Sides his career best of – ‘The Lake’, an expansive instrumental reflection on Lake Geneva and ‘To France’, a classic folk-pop ballad featuring Maggie Reilly. Newly remastered for 2015 and gathering together in-era B-sides, this new edition of Discovery is offered in a Deluxe Edition which includes a newly-compiled work by Mike Oldfield himself – The 1984 Suite, which gathers together tracks from Discovery and The Killing Fields together with rarities and a newly-voiced version of ‘Poison Arrows’, called ‘Zombies (Halloween Special).’
„With 1984's Discovery, Mike Oldfield seems to be back on track, utilizing the vocal power of Maggie Reilly and the drum playing of Simon Phillips to create some rather appealing selections. 'The Lake' is a simply gorgeous instrumental inspired by Switzerland's Lake Geneva, the location in which the album was recorded, while 'To France' is a powerful pop/rock tune based on the life of Mary, Queen of Scots. Both Reilly and Barry Palmer share the vocal duties throughout the tracks, signifying Oldfield's subtle emergence into a more pop-infused atmosphere. 'Tricks of the Light' is a wonderful instrumental that relies on the keyboard to give it energy, while even so-so efforts like the title track and 'Poison Arrows' come off as upbeat and inspired. Discovery peaked at number 15 in the U.K., and even though it didn't garner much attention elsewhere, it serves as one of Mike Oldfield's most entertaining releases from the decade.“ (Mike DeGagne, AMG)
