Michael Oldfield is the name of the first signed artist for Virgin Music. Mike refuses to appear onstage until Richard bribes him with his Bentley wedding present. When Mike appears onstage to perform Tubular Bells, the album reaches Number1 and sells thirteen million copies. His success exposes a now wealthy, but reclusive Mike Oldfield living in Wales who is unable to cope with his fame. Fortunately, Atlantic Records licenses Tubular Bells to a film, "The Exorcist" that pays Virgin and Mike continuing American royalties.
