Now if you don't know this album or care for old progressive rock, this definitely won't be your cup of tea.
However if you're into cape-wearing overachievers playing dual Minimoogs, Mellotron, Steinway, Clavinet, Rhodes, Hammond and others, there's some amazing stuff here.
Wakeman hardly offers any facial expressions or even moves his arms much (as opposed to say, Keith Emerson.)
Unless a camera is showing his hands, you'd often think he was a statue.
But his fingers are definitely flying and he doesn't seem to have any difficulty with left/right hand independence.
This is over an hour and a half.
It'll take some bandwidth.
If you have the capability to download it, it comes in at 324.1 megabytes.
One either has to like Wakeman, Minis or both.

I always thought that there should have been an album of just famous Wakeman Solo's. Like you Kevin, I couldn't get enough of that sound at the time. It was like a dog whistle to my ears. I agree, He is the trill master.
