Virgin had humble origins; it was founded by counterculture entrepreneurs Richard Branson, Simon Draper, and Nik Powell in 1972, as an extension of a record store they already owned. Its first release, Music/MikeOldfield's ''Music/TubularBells'', was an album consisting of one track: an eerie, [[EpicRocking 48-minute]] instrumental (mostly) that hardly seemed like chart-topping material at first. However, when excerpts from the album were featured on the soundtrack of ''Film/TheExorcist'', it became a critically acclaimed smash. Virgin soon established itself as a home for adventurous ProgressiveRock and {{Krautrock}} performers such as Music/TangerineDream, Kevin Coyne, Hatfield and the North, Faust, Music/HenryCow, Music/SlappHappy and Music/{{Gong}}. Virgin also operated a sister label, Caroline Records, for less commercial releases. It was similar to the relationship between Creator/AtlanticRecords and Creator/AtcoRecords.
