On Horseback (Mike Oldfield)

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the song On Horseback (by Mike Oldfield) in (just over) fifteen minutes. In this episode, I am in discussion with Dr. Andrew Webber.The song On Horseback is the final and untitled section to 'Ommadawn (Part Two) from Oldfield's third album Ommadawn. The song was released on the flip side of the single 'In Dulci Jubilo' by Virgin Records in November 1975. It features Oldfield on vocals accompanied by a children's chorus, credited as the Penrhos Kids.This podcast was published on the day of Her Majesty The Queen’s State Funeral. Whilst Her Majesty may not have been an admirer of beer or cheese - horses and in particular, being on horseback was certainly an enduring passion.https://www.facebook.com/share/1F15mx4ea3/https://buymeacoffee.com/lownoiseWhy buy me a coffee?Low Noise is proudly ad-free.
