The Sallyangie Featuring Sally And Mike Oldfield – Children Of The Sun (Vinyl LP)

The Sallyangie – Children Of The Sun is the only album by the folk duo of siblings Sally and Mike Oldfield, originally released in 1968 on Transatlantic – long before "Tubular Bells". Delicate acoustic guitars, two-part vocals and string arrangements by David Palmer shape this dreamy British folk record. It includes "Lady Mary", "Balloons" and the title track.

On offer is an Italian reissue on Transatlantic Records (ORL 8366) with the original inner sleeve.
