The third Sanctuary album is also the best of the trilogy. This one dares even more to expand the Oldfieldian style in new and exciting directions. It may be sacrilege to suggest it, but if this *were* a genuine Oldfield album, many might say it was one of his best, too. It's true that Rob Reed is standing on the shoulders of a giant, but he is a giant talent in his own right.
Often the music brings tears to the eyes, as if it were the soundtrack to the climax of a hard-won cinematic story. nickgreen90125
The Ringmaster continues in what we might call the 'Oldfield genre', but for three albums Rob has been evolving his own unique style of it, and here is where it fully breaks out. Exhilarating melodies and rhythms, epic scale, and pristine yet intimate production, all with hints of a fairytale story just out of sight. Actual fave track is 'The Gatekeeper/The First Large Water', with its QE2 vibes. nickgreen90125
