Oh if only they had some video footage of the night they did this!
Be brilliant if you could upload 'Speak Though You Only Say Farewell' from the Boxed set.

I'll dig out the album and upload this track for you. Not one of my favourites, I hasten to add.

I've got this, i love it. They were a bit drunk when they did this.

That's correct. The reason that they edited it for Tubular Bells was (according to sleeve notes) this was the first album for an unknown artist and Richard Branson felt that because Mike Oldfield was an unknown that he didn't think anyone would be interested in him and Vivian Stanshall messing about in a drunken stupor.
