Sally Oldfield's first and best solo record, Water Bearer is a song sequence of mystical, nature-worshipping folk rock. A lush, colorful musical tapestry of piano, glockenspiel, harp, horns, guitar, synth, hand drums, ethereal backing vox, and various other elements, with Oldfield's angelic voice at its core. FYI it's super easy to find this on LP for like three bucks.
