On two alternate language B-sides of "The Bell", MC Otto and MC Carlos Finally played the Master of Ceremonies in German and Spanish respectively. On alternate mixes of "The Bell" released as single B-sides, Billy Connolly and Vivian Stanshall (the voice in the original Tubular Bells) each played the Master of Ceremonies. The Master of Ceremonies at the premiere concert in Edinburgh, Scotland was John Gordon Sinclair. This was due to the final voice not having been picked, when the artwork was produced. The introduction of the instruments at the end of the first half of the album was done by British actor Alan Rickman, though he was only listed in the credits as "a strolling player". In 1998 another sequel followed, Tubular Bells III, and in 2003 Oldfield recorded a new version of the original Tubular Bells, as Tubular Bells 2003. Also unlike the original ending coda, "The Sailor's Hornpipe", "Moonshine" is an original composition by Oldfield. Unlike Tubular Bells there is a recurring theme, first appearing at the end of "Sentinel" that reappears throughout the album, though it is most obvious at the end of "The Bell". Some themes can be seen as variations of themes taken from the original Bells, while some other parts of Tubular Bells II do not have much common with the themes of the original album except their overall mood or feeling. The result is an album that has same kind of thematic variation but is still new musically. Themes of the original Bells are taken and then completely re-composed and played with mostly new instruments. Tubular Bells II partly follows musical structures of the original Tubular Bells (1973). "Early Stages" has a somewhat darker mood and is from the pre-Trevor Horn development of the album, possibly showing the kind of influence that Horn had. "Early Stages" which is an early version of what would become "Sentinel" was included as a B-side to the single version of "Sentinel". Virgin Records had been pushing Oldfield to create a sequel to Tubular Bells for many years prior to his departure from the label, but Oldfield was hesitant to do so, although his penultimate album for the label, Amarok, was in several respects a conceptual sequel to his 1976 album Ommadawn.įor Tubular Bells II Oldfield enlisted the help of Tom Newman, who had helped produce the original, as well as established producer Trevor Horn (known for his work with The Buggles, Yes and Art of Noise).
