In the final part of our series exploring aspects of Offa's Dyke, and Offa's Dyke Path, Rosa Hunt walks a part of the way in the company of five people with a passion for the outdoors, and asks the theological conundrum of whether God is a walker? There are many suggestions in both the Old Testament and the New that God does indeed walk, and it's possible - some argue - that we come nearest to Him not when we rush around but when we walk at a moderate pace. Even for people without a formal faith, the meditative action of walking can lead to a deep spiritual experience, regardless of whether or not they believe in a creator God. For Steven Carter, a retired Baptist minister, walking Offa's Dyke has a particular significance - despite his cancer prognosis, he is determined to walk as much of its 177 miles as possible in easy stages. In this programme Rosa joins him for a section of the Dyke at Hergest Ridge. For Llinos Metcalf easy stages are probably not what she is seeking, since over the last ten years she's signed up for and completed numerous arduous treks in places such as Patagonia, the Sahara and the Arctic, sustained by her faith and a mission to raise money for Velindre cancer hospital. Rosa takes a detour to Newchurch, near Gladestry, to speak to Ann Dean about the diaries of Francis Kilvert, the one-time curate of Clyro who was an avid walker in the district. Near Hay Bluff Rosa encounters Susan Langford-Johnson, a former Catholic chaplain who despite no longer believing in God, believes she has had a deeply spiritual experience whilst walking a pilgrimage. Finally, on a gentle stretch of Offa's Dyke path at Hay Rosa meets Rev'd Dr Mark Clavier, who has written about his own 'pilgrimage' whilst never having been on a 'proper' one to a religious shrine. Is God a walker? "Yes", he agrees, "God must certainly be a walker...or else a sadist!"
The Mike Oldfield Discography Podcast, Episode 3 (Album review, analysis and discussion) Nothing was ever heard of him again, except for the sound of... This podcast series takes you on a journey through the almost 30 full-length albums released by the British multi-instrumentalist and composer. Hosts Markus Reuter and Tobias Fischer have been life-long admirers of Mike's work. Here, they exchange thoughts, ideas and insights through expansive conversations in Markus's Berlin studio. Each episode is a deep dive dedicated to one album, uncovering what makes it unique and what connects it to other entries in his discography. Starting with Opus One, and then the iconic Tubular Bells, the Podcast aims to shed light on the work of a singular artist - whose work has become an important ingredient of our music culture.
Nosotros, el equipo de Subterranea, siempre hemos sido conscientes de la importancia de Mike Oldfield no sólo para nosotros sino para todos vosotros, nuestros oyentes. Así el colofón de esta décima temporada tan difícil por accidentada ha consistido en hacer realidad una antigua aspiración común de todos nosotros, a un lado y al otro de los micrófonos: realizar el especial dedicado a Mike Oldfield que se desarrollará a través de tres programas. La selección de los temas corrió a cargo de Carles Pinos y Carlos Romeo; y los subterráneos que atendieron el primer programa fueron Juan Francisco Díaz, Pedro Enrique Esteban Almagro, Ramón García, Ricardo Hernández, Carles Pinós, David Pintos y Carlos Romeo. Esta primera parte versa sobre lo sucedido entre 1953 y 1978, es decir entre el nacimiento de Mike Oldfield y la publicación de Incantations. Comentamos los primeros pasos en la música de Mike Oldfield y el contenido de los álbumes Children of the Sun, Tubular Bells, Hergest Ridge, Ommadawn e Incantations, ilustrado con piezas de estos discos junto con otro material aparecido en discos sencillos, y algún comentario más sobre otros aspectos que nos han parecido relevantes (experiencias personales, colaboraciones, etc.). Esperamos que sea disfrutado en la misma medida en la que nosotros lo hicimos al realizarlo. www.subterranea.eu
Join Michael Litten "The Last DJ" for an in-depth discussion.Featuring a variety of songs.Sponsored by DrinkmateTheme music provided by Peter PerkinsSpecial Thank You to Lucy Piller/ARN Entertainment for providing the talent Troy Redfern combines the rawness of Hound Dog Taylor, the free-form approach of Sonny Sharrock, the firebrand playing of Johnny Winter and the technique of Dave Hole, mixed with the ghost of Elmore James’. There’s something about the Welsh marches. As guitarist Troy Redfern tells it, he grew up in the shadow of Hergest Ridge, made famous by Mike Oldfield. The Welsh borders - roughly that area between Hay on Way, Brecon and Hereford - might not quite evoke the arresting geography and climate of say Louisiana, but there’s something about the freedom of that area...

Clare Balding walks on Hergest Ridge in Herefordshire with Dr. Kate Harding, who has a moving story to tell. This is the second time Clare has walked with Kate. Their first ramble was around five years ago. The run-up to that recording had been stressful and Clare wasn't really up for it. She recalls - 'I was grumpy with the weather and grumpy with life. Not myself at all'. However, when Kate and Clare started that walk, Clare realised it was what she needed most. Kate's advice about the power of mindfulness resonated strongly. It's an encounter that Clare has never forgotten. Now, Clare is returning to Herefordshire to walk with Kate once more. However, Kate's circumstances have changed significantly. Last year, her husband killed himself. A consultant anaesthetist and specialist in intensive care, he had been suffering from crippling depression. Kate and her teenage children have, obviously, been left devastated. They had emigrated to New Zealand as a family of four. Shortly after Richard's suicide, they returned to Herefordshire, as three. Since Richard's death, Kate has become determined to highlight the higher than average suicide rate amongst the medical profession, and would like to see a swifter process of complaint handling by the General Medical Council. This is why she's chosen to walk again with Clare; as well as to celebrate Richard's life by walking in one of the places he loved the most, Hergest Ridge, where his memorial was held. Kate regards the openness and beauty of Herefordshire as something of a balm.

Craig's longtime pal Ian Zapczynski is back for a conversation about the opening trilogy of Mike Oldfield LPs - Tubular Bells, Hergest Ridge and Ommadawn (with some VERY slight passing mentions of later records). We'll find out how Ian introduced Craig to the work of Oldfield with a remixed album that he very mistakenly took as an original mix... and all of that sort of minutiae that you've come to expect from these sidecasts.
Con el gran movimiento que tenemos en el blog debido al nuevo disco y a las reediciones, se me había pasado que tenemos ya listo un nuevo programa de nuestras tertulias sobre Oldfield. En ésta ocasión, Pedro, Anselmo, Ignacio y yo desgranamos el segundo disco de Oldfield, Hergest Ridge. Desde curiosidades, a opiniones, experiencias, temas de coleccionismo, y alguna que otra rareza que hemos querido compartir con vosotros. De nuevo, Ángel Valero se ha encargado de la post-producción y elaboración de unas portadas para aquellos que quieran grabarse estos especiales. De aquí a un par de semanas haremos el tercer programa dedicado a Ommadawn, y vuelvo a repetir que estáis todos invitados para formar parte de éste experimento.
