Recorded fresh off the heels of the European Adventure Tour in support of QE2, the album was made with the close support of Oldfield's touring musicians, all of whom were previously session musicians on QE2. Appropriately, this album continues the style of that one (and, by extension, Platinum), featuring a side-long suite that acts as a Sequel Song to "Taurus" and a side consisting of more accessible material.The result would be Oldfield's best-selling album up to that point, reaching No. 7 on the UK Albums charts (and thus being his first album to reach the top ten there since Ommadawn) and being certified platinum in Spain as well as gold in the UK & Germany. Concurrently, the Five Miles Out World Tour that Oldfield conduced in support of this album became the largest in his entire career, spanning from April to December of 1982. The success that this album generated would pave the way for Oldfield's greater UK commercial comeback with Crises a year later.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Five Miles Out was supported by two singles: the Title Track and "Family Man", the latter of which saw even greater success through a Cover Version by Daryl Hall & John Oates.Tracklist:Side One "Taurus II" (24:43)Side Two "Family Man" (3:45) "Orabidoo" (13:03) "Mount Teidi" (4:10) "Five Miles Out" (4:16)Here's a trope to take with you:
