Description
Many people aren't aware of the fact that Mike Oldfield's musical career already started in 1968. In that year he and his sister formed a folk music duo called The Sallyangie, named after Sally's name combined with a song called Angie by folk singer Bert Jansch. The duo recorded only one album at the recommendation of guitarist John Renbourn from Pentangle who met Sally at the Troubadour Folk Club at Bristol. The album Children Of The Sun was recorded in August 1968; the songs have been mainly written by Sally, but it also contains some of her brother's early guitar work. Guest musicians were Terry Cox (drums) and Ray Warleigh (flute). They both were studio musicians working for Transatlantic Records that released the album.
A fairy tale ambience suffused Mike and Sally's original songs, on which Sally Oldfield's
high, trilling vocals overshadow brother Mike's guitar playing and less-prominent singing.
