PIANO VIBRATIONS

Rick Wakeman

Symphonic Prog

From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

OUCH... unbeliveable... a chance he played for YES, probably like that he learned to write songs lol... On several songs, he seems to search the notes... The last one, Classical Gas, is probably the best, and note that Steve Howe played that song in the beginning of the 90's. It's aviable on "Not necessarily accoustic"... and a classical guitar is well heardable on the Wakeman's version. Was Steve Howe there? For collectors only ...

"This was never meant to be a solo album and to be honest I certainly don't count it as a solo album in any respect. True it is a piece of history, but not one I'm proud of.

I was actually booked to play piano on a session at Pye Studios in London's Marble Arch and it was to play on some backtracks for an unknown singer who was due in later that week to put his vocals on.

Shortly afterwards I started having some success with Strawbs and the next thing we knew was that the album was being put out by PYE Records as Piano Vibrations with no vocalist and with a picture of me on the back.

I was unhappy and A&M Records, who had Strawbs and myself signed, were furious.

I received �9 for my trouble."

Nothing more to be said.
