    Believe it or not I saw him play in a small bar in a small town in Peterborough, Ontario Canada. It was a fluke, and I was lucky enough to be there. Might have been a hundred people in the to be honest pretty seedy bar. I was in seventh heaven. I loved his work both with Yes and his solo albums. To me, he was a keyboard god. He came up after and shook my hand and said "Thanks mate". Who needs a bucket list after Rick Wakeman shook your hand and said "Thanks mate"? Goosebumps to this day.

      wmg111 very cool! I saw him 3 live 3 times on the early 70’s. Once with Yes in ‘73 & twice after that for Arthur & Journey. I love his piano playing concerts just as much too.

What kind of hyperbole have we been subjected to enduring with our lives at this RUclips time? Guess what? Any pianist who has any technique at all can play without looking at the keyboard. How do you think people read music?

    I think of all the automation we have today and you have to love seeing Rick cup his hands over patch numbers on a synth to make sure the right patch was called up because the bright stage was obscuring the view. Those are the days of seat of your pants. I recall doing it many times.

Saw an interview after Keith passed and was amazed to hear that both Keith and Rick wanted to perform together but the powers that be at the time were against it with that Rick went on to perform some of Keith's finer pieces, and boy did Rick hit it out of the ball park! And yes they were friends.

      Sure, Korg gave him a couple to use on the ARW tour. In the 80's Rick was a Korg endorsee, appeared in a lot of their adds and his setup was very Korg heavy in those years. That seems to have ended by the time of the Yes Union project where his setup included very little if any Korg gear.
      The Korg board he's really a fan of apparently is the Trident, which you can see him using here, and which he used to teach his boys how to play and program synths.

      @@MFitz12 he speaks fondly of his massive 01/W Pro X, and still uses it live whenever he can get the people required to carry the behemoth.

    Assolutamente straordinario, e il timbro a 0:58 è incredibilmente bello. Great performance!

    I have had the privilege to watch Rick perform live three times. First with Yes then solo and again with Yes!
    You gotta be good to be Elton John’s pianist! Rick played with Bowie, Sabbath, Cat Stevens and other giants. What a bloke!
