I'm pretty indifferent towards it. I doubt I'll ever listen to it again TBH.

Same here. Personally I like it, but I generally don't find much replay value in these types of albums unless it's mind blowing.

There's only two half-decent tracks on the whole album.

For me it's real classic. From today's perspective it's ... different music but if you put it into the 70's this is a ... different story.

Some great writing here but the hasn't aged well at all - most parts of it sound like it was made on a midi file.

The final bit of Tubular Bells part One though is one of my favourites bits of music.

A fantastic album I think. With that early 1970s sheen that I love so much.
But, you know, his next two albums are even better (or at least more fascinating because less familiar).
