@jeremykyleftw That is correct - Price on the European record, Bacon on the US record and in the video (and our cover art for the Islands album was different from the European release as well). I like Bacon's voice much better, but I preferred the European album cover art. ^_^
i read somewhere that max bacon sang on the original 1987 version and jim price vocals where added to the 2000 re issue version why i dont know prob something to do with royalties
@garymixer That may be true. My cassette version from the 80's is not the same version that I got when I bought the CD some odd years later and it definitely sounds different.
I believe this was one of the very few singles Mike Oldfield ever officially released in the U.S. The ones I can think of are Tubular Bells (obviously), Portsmouth, Family Man, Magic Touch and The Bell.
If Max Bacon's voice sounds familiar,that's because he was the vocalist for the 2 guitar rock band band GTR with the double Steve's. Steve Howe & Steve Hackett.

@jaguar7676 he was the vocalist on the US releases, Jim Price done the UK/European, but I do think this is Max Bacon singing.

@DallasHammster I agree. Max Bacon has a good voice, ashame he didn't get enough recognition. Owns a pub somewhere in England now.

The vocals on the UK / European version of Islands were performed by Jim Price, and can also be heard on The Wind Chimes video album.
However, this is the vocal of Max Bacon, from the US version of Islands, and the video released to MTV.
