Best known for her prolonged coaction with renowned electronic composer Mike Oldfield, vocaliser Maggie Reilly was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1956. She began her performing life history during the early 1970s as a member of the local blues band Joe Cool; later on renamed Cado Belle, the group's self-titled debut LP was issued in 1976. An EP followed a yr later, only Cado Belle dissolved before long later, with Reilly turning to session work on before signing on with the trio Riotous Assembly. She met Oldfield in 1979, and a yr later contributed vocals to his record album QE2; they collaborated on tierce more projects -- Five Miles Out, Crises and Uncovering -- before Reilly made her solo debut in 1984 with a cover of the classical "As Tears Go By." She spent the latter half of the decennium focusing on raising a family, reverting to music only intermittently, including a 1989 reunion with Oldfield on his album Earth Moving; ultimately, in 1992 Reilly issued her debut solo LP Echoes, followed a class later by Midnight Sun. Elena appeared in 1996.
