Rick Wakeman Live on the Radio (2-CD)

A real treasure for nostalgia buffs - and of course lovers of good old 70's prog! A double CD featuring Rick and the English Rock Ensemble in concert as transmitted by the BBC, at the time of his tour to promote "No Earthly Connection," There are two concerts featured; the first from the Hammersmith Odeon, on 17th June 1976 and the second, an Old Grey Whistle Test recording from 27th April that year. It's both a fascinating archive and a record of Rick and the ERE at their peak. Listening to this recording you realise just what a fabulous keyboard player he really is. Both concerts feature works from the four albums he had produced by then - Six Wives, Journey, King Arthur, and the aforementioned No Earthly Connection.
