In 1975, Bedford premiered his Rime of the Ancient Mariner, an adaptation of the Samuel Taylor Coleridge poem. It had started life as a proposed children's opera, but he later decided that it would work better as an album recording, released by Virgin. In contrast to his earlier work, which involved more traditional orchestral forces, this work relied on multi-layered electronic keyboards (all played by Bedford), with Mike Oldfield contributing the electric guitar parts and the actor Robert Powell (Mahler, The Thirty-Nine Steps, Jesus of Nazareth, Hannay) narrating. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner was a success, and encouraged Bedford to attempt one more major work merging classical and rock elements.~ Bruce Eder, All Music Guide.
