Got this e-mail today:

RICK WAKEMAN: RETRO
Rick has turned back the musical hands of time - He's oiled his Mini-Moog pitch bender, ironed out the old Mellotron tapes, renewed the valves in the trusty Hammond organ and dusted down the electric piano to give us all what we've been waiting for since the made the 'Six Wives' debut - An instrumental album recorded on a line up of classic analogue keyboards. Due in February

Un unexpected, but very welcome move, IMO. Sounds good!

Go, Rick, go!

I THOUGHT YOU WERE LACKING DISRESPECT FOR THE MAN WITH THE STARDUST SPRINKLED CAPE!!!

I first read your thread title as

Rick Wakeman goes back to being anal!

 

 

Sorry, just could not help it!!!!

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Sounds interesting, I read from his site that he was going to do an album with "old" Mellotrons, moogs, etc. I haven't bought a Wakey album in a long, long time but I'd go for this one!

Analouge Keys have more of a atmospheric sound compared to midi/digital synths.
