Rhino will release The Best of Mike Oldfield later this month, a new two-disc collection that takes in a number of rarities, including b-sides and remixes.

The collection is drawn from Oldfield’s eight studio albums released on Warner Bros. Records between 1992 and 2003, a period that saw him revisit Tubular Bells three times

The inclusion of non-album versions, rare edits and radio mixes on the first CD will be welcomed by fans and disc two takes this a step further with various remixes, including The Orb’s “Orbular Bells” mix of Sentinel.

The Best of Mike Oldfield will be released on 27 April 2015.
