[@Eltonlaleham]

Awesome tune in billions of ways

[@Sonz-x9b]

Brilliant performance!

[@Russell_G]

Without doubt the best version ever played anywhere!!

[@gazzis]

Totally agree.

[@choying38]

I loved this album with all of my heart as I grew up, thanks Mike for the greatest music, just the greatest ❤️

[@raulburgosgracia5770]

No es original ? , yo creo que no hay un concierto igual de el

[@gertsy2000]

Pretty sure this was recorded at Hanover in 1981. Mike at his best, especially in the last 3:30. Sublime. I wish, oh so much, that there was video.

[@GianlucaPetruccioli]

UNA INCREDIBILE MERAVIGLIA DI ELEGANZA E BELLEZZA IN MUSICA !!!

[@haraldwrona-5400]

Mike Oldfield ist der am meisten begnadete Musiker aller Zeiten.

[@martingray6275]

One of my all-time FAV Mike Oldfield compositions. And you know how it is when you hear one specific version 'first' and after that no other version is ever 'quite' as good !! So it was for me on hearing this 'live' version on the 'The Complete' double album, way back when :-)

[@EzeePosseTV]

That's the exact same for me. Even though I first heard a small section of Part One used as the theme music to the 80's kids quiz show called "First Class", the first time I heard it in full was on the double album "The Complete" like you did. I love this version of Platinum and when I hear the actual original it doesn't sound right with the Synth instead of piano, lol. When I first heard the OG version I initially thought it was a cover version by a tribute band or something, lol

[@IfUfindthisURlost]

@@EzeePosseTV Good grief... I remember First Class. Oldfield's music at the start was a highlight, though I think a re-recorded version, different to the original album - I shall go away and look it up.

[@IfUfindthisURlost]

My mistake.... original album version. I think I thought it was different because I also heard the complete live version first... which is different.

[@skepticus123]

@@EzeePosseTV Spot on. Paul Coia (the unruffled Scotsman) was the presenter of First Class I think - I too remember the little excerpts from Platinum (Airborne I believe) on that programme. I preferred the studio version for Airborne, but the live version for the North Star finale, which was the first version I heard, and which will always be the "proper" version for me. I remember listening to it over and over again on my Walkman when I went to visit my grandparents at Christmas - just such a cool piece of music.

[@EzeePosseTV]

@@skepticus123 That's quite cool. I didn't know Paul Coia was Scottish, I too am Scottish. Whenever I hear that piano and guitar riffs at the beginning, I always see the intro graphic animations in my mind play out. lol

[@alexandralapebie3168]

une pointure !! RESPECT

[@Colorado-Tinkering]

Best recording of Platinum. Thank you

[@Hazardous541]

The best live version.

[@FredEric-y5g]

Un morceau immortel ❤❤

[@Dudemania3000]

Some of the best Guitar melody ever from 10:55 onwards just epic

[@Vampifan1]

It truly is!

[@timwoodall1390]

North Star. I always thought he should have done a techno dance version and he has (Tubular Beats)

[@fatrevisi]

And the drum that sounds like our heartbeat

[@ruiduarteguedes]

Still my favourite track !!!

[@skepticus123]

Spot. On.

[@fluteher0]

It’s 2020 and this still inspires me!

[@carlmanvers5009]

Easily my favorite live version of this wonderful piece.

[@robcheerful]

The whole band was on fire this night.

[@kevinfelten2386]

Barni and Michael Oldfield are great together.

[@garethparkin9498]

Best live version of Platinum IMHO

[@rogermorello9910]

Whereas any other composer of our times, (I am commenting end if April 2018) presuming he or she could come up with such musical wonders, would have probably made five different pieces out of all the material contained within this creation for the sake of commerciality, such is Mr Oldfield and so rich his repertoire, that he can afford to merge all these tunes into one single work of art. I take a bow to you, the likes of which just don't exist these days. Chapeau.

[@ramoniramone5993]

Roger Morello Buckethead !

[@rogermorello9910]

Do you mean that as in the famous guitar player or are you calling me stupid !!! LOL

[@EzeePosseTV]

If I remember correctly the section at the beginning of this track was used as the theme music for a kids game show on BBC1 back in the early 1980's

[@constantinkostenczyk5045]

Meseriasul Mike Oldfield , yes Sir 👍 with love ...o parere doar ...k i t as soon as you desire/can ...multumesc voua 👍😇❤️

[@arraymac227]

10:56 shiver point

[@housebeat7987]

Does someone know if Mr Oldfield is still performing?

[@carlo_4348]

Does anybody know exactly the title of this specific version? It seems it's not available in Spotify and I found it only here. Thanks

[@barni349]

The title is "Platinum". This version is from compilation album called "The Complete Mike Oldfield" , from 1985. This was recorded in Hannover , on April 2nd 1981.Source : www.discogs.com/master/44147-Mike-Oldfield-The-Complete

[@carlo_4348]

Thank you 😊

[@stalledrangen]

How many guitars in platinum finale? Its magic!

[@robcheerful]

This is the 1981 band so just Mike's guitar and the bass guitar. Utmost piece of rhythm guitar playing huh?

[@Craigevansagain]

I believe Mike used a digital delay and harmonizer effects boxes to create the effect of multiple electric guitars in Platinum Finale.

[@gavingraham2851]

But two drummers natch! Never figured that out until I saw Montreux - vg of course but the Complete version is just so... complete😋

[@alexugljesic]

Sa ovim albumom, Platinum, sam otkrio Olfielda '81, i ne odvajam se od njegove muzike...

[@sonkasonka2220]

с 4:09 начинается гениалность!

[@denislezab1165]

Like a lot of people here, it's my favorite version of this piece, and only heard in this "Complete" album. But anyone knows what live version it is exactly ? I mean from where and the date ?

[@barni349]

Il ni a rien de meilleur

[@houbrontommy653]

Les éléphants adorent écouter du piano 🎹 🐘

[@PedroLuzBaraka]

Involución general del original. Revisiionismo a la baja y demasiado guitarreo ególatra de fondo, Maiki

[@alejandroblanco4111]

A mi me encanta Mike Oldfield. Creo que es un guitarrista, compositor y arreglista, excelente, sobresaliente, creativo, innovador (y nunca doy una opininión con intención de dañar). No obstante, debo decir, que Coincido con Pedro Luis, en que la versión original, es mejor, a mis oídos de escucha, sin conocimiento musical.

[@marcenunez1960]

Es verdad que tenía que tener un sonido más denso. No le llegan esos tambores para dar un poco de fuerza al tema. Claro qe poner la música de olfield en directo, haría falta mucho más. Saludos.

[@mototrailadventure2725]

Curioso. Como la mayoría de gente que opinó antes (en inglés) esta versión en directo me parece infinitamente mejor que la original: mucho más lirismo, emotividad, fuerza... y sobre todo los cuatro minutos y medio finales, la suma de guitarra, bajo, sintetizador, voz y percusión es sencillamente brillante. En cualquier caso, para gustos, los colores

[@PedroLuzBaraka]

La percusión es penosa

[@humanesclubbasket3595]

Que mala es la envidia

[@Roma43534]

Envidia + incultura = falta de respeto
