about a month ago i finally sat down with ommadawn while i tripped out on mushrooms by myself. it was something i needed to do. i needed to ground myself from everything, regain focous, find myself and the others around me. i recieved this album over 2 years ago from a local radio station i worked at. i was severlt getting into 70's trip so by looking at this cover i figured i couldn't go wrong. well, after about a year of kind of listening to this album i really began to feel its impact. a few joints here and there and wow, something was really clicking. so one night i decided to do some mushrooms and pop this album on, i began to feel to many emotions and got scared and turned it off. that was only the beginning. i was by myself again and this time everything worked in my favour, no calls, no noises, nothing. my bowl was already pre packed and there was something about this night that was telling me that everything was alright. well , after listening to this album the first time i have never felt so much energy come over me. i mean it felt like something was rushing through me and i couldn't control it. i started to ball my eyes out for around 45 minutes. i couldn't beleive what i was experiencing. my fingers were numb and i had so much energy in me it was scary. i regained myself and listened to it again. the same thing but this time i began to think about those around me, my wife, my son, thenm my famile, friends etc etc.... it was a rude awakening if you ask me. i was in shock. like this album was telling me that everything was o.k.. everything was going to work out and we awere going to be happy from here on in. this album was meant for me. mike knew what buttons to push, how and where. the astral plains to the grounding of worldy bueatiness. i liostened again and again and again. no music has ever dome this to me and i listen to way too much music. there is soemthing about this man that touvhed a nerve that nobody has ever doen before. tom waits almost did with his closing time album but not as savage as this. all i wanted to say was i am a changed man from this and will forever thank mike for opening my eyes and letting me see what was really important about all that i'm am doing in my own path to happiness. i am currently signed to a record label myself entitled www.meridian-music.com, our band is entitled it lives within and we are trying to break into the scroing world of horror. but after listeing to this i would love to make something along those lines of wonderful transcending space and earth. you told me that man, evryting will be o.k..

i love this man and have since put up his picture on my wall so that i will forever feel his warmth and passion for all that is great.

thanx a crap load and i love this man.

Actually you don't need to take any foreign substances at all when listening to Ommadawn - it's a trip all by itself and yes can bring you closer to God and His creation if you seek Him as you listen to it.

It's a piece of music that explores deep emotions and will draw those emotions out - sometimes in the busyness of this modern age many emotions can be supressed with others exaggerated (e.g stress related emotions may be many in this busy age but emotions of peace, joy and those that accompanty deep reflection are almost extinct - these are the emotions Ommadawn draws forth).

Well ..... What a spin out a.... :D I do have to agree with you , Ommadawn is an absolute trip , asteral plain or not , its does have some kind of magic about it, but then again so does most of Mikes music. Ever time i listen to TB II  i sit back with a big number and drift of into the land of the tubular bells...

Very cool....... Sweet,,,,,,Totally

Peace from the Sentinel of Ozz

Well Cannabal Cam you heard about the Dyslexic, Insomiac, Agnostic who spent the whole night wondering, if there really was a DOG.

Enjoy HR, I see god all the time listening to that album.
