Way back in the depths of time keyboard viruoso Rick Wakeman left The Strawbs to join Yes. However, his talents were such that material outside of the band were inevitable, and his first solo effort appeared in 1973. Themed around henry VIII's infamous 6 wives, each of the tracks attempts to reflect the character of each lady. Almost totally instrumental it features a beautiful hymn on Anne Boleyn, a variety of keyboard and a magnificent church organ. A great start to a thirty four year solo career - for both Rick and you the listener.
WENT TO SEE RICK WAKEMAN IN CONCERT HAMPTON COURT 1ST MAY 2009, BLOWN AWAY BY THE SET, LIGHTS, MUSIC AND OF COURSE THE FAMOUS CAPES. WHAT A SHOWMAN, WHAT A NIGHT. THIS ALBUM CONDENSED ON C.D. AN ALL TIME CLASSIC. PLEASE LISTEN TO THE MAN HIMSELF ON SAT. MORNINGS 1000 TO 1300 ON DIGITAL PLANET ROCK. ALSO I HAVE BOUGHT OTHER ALBUMS VIA EBAY. A CHEAP WAY TO REPLACE THOSE VINYL LONG PLAYS.
