Though in the BBC interview I mentioned previously even he admitted that some of it was a bit pants! But gotta respect his talent and his ability/drive and after all, he's the one with the zillions in the bank, so fair play to him.
So in musical Wakeman penance I will now listen to one of either: The Six Wives of Henry XIII, Journey to the Centre of the Earth, or the Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table or even Rick Wakeman's Criminal Record (1977 album, yes really)... Hmmm.
