Back about 1973-1974, my older brother and I shared a bedroom. He had a Lloyds 8 track tape player, and had many 8-tracks. Tubular bells being one of these. I would play this at night and go to sleep with it playing at a low volume. Even today it has a soothing effect. I still like to listen to this music when on long drives.
