“Across the Universe: Just as much Beatles as it is Jack deJohnette and Oldfield himself, this is a groovy new age set that mixes a little Celtica with some laid back Cirque du Soleil and a host of other elements the suburban yuppie single mom gets into when she’s feeling offbeat and unconventional. A dandy sonic getaway, Oldfield is a great and trusted sonic tour guide that gets you from hear to there effectively but lets you stop and smell the roses as well as enjoy the sonic scenery along the way. Another winner from the master.”
