This is a Proper Interview, no silly un-informed Journo trying to be clever clever, but some good in-depth stuff, where Rick (the interviewee) is allowed to talk without interruption, without being rushed or asked to slag off other artists. Rick not only talks a great deal of sense, but offers good advice for current/up and coming bands, but shows his knowledge of the music business and how it could be revised and made better.
Fabulous interview; Rick is a gifted storyteller, so many events related with his albums that I did have and can relate to. Today, Rick still releases CDs and his latest "Red Planet" will be huge surprise for everyone. Sadly ARW is history but was a nice ride.
Nailed it, Rick--the great music heritage is 60's and 70's era music. Being a child of the 70's, glad to catch it on the tail end and rediscover it. It shall endure and will be cared for.
This is _Really_ a good interview! Lovely. Low key with gobs of information! Archiving composers is HISTORY, and should be treated as such! Young, and old alike ...we enjoy learning about it! You're a treasure to so many Rick!! May The good Lord Bless you.
Thanks for sharing! What I really like with lots of your music(you probably not read this - I write it anyway), like King Arthur and Journey to the center of the earth, it's like beeing in that story. It's like reading a excellent book. There are lots of great musicians out there but not many who can create that experience, and today...it's not about that anymore.
Rick has ''looked'' like two distinct characters to me. First ...was the medieval young man, and by the time Nina came round, he looked like a football jock! BOTH shticks suited him, and were were lovely indeed!
yes but I recenlty found out that youtube does not not keep every video posted on it. I download some. But a lot of early stuff from come channels is no longer there.
because all people get old and the world they once inhabited utterly change. unfortunately happens to us all. i share your sentiment though - i wish it wasn’t so
I'd disagree a bit. He'd like it not to be over for the generations that came after him. He was able to surf the wave of 1960s, 70s, into 80s. He built a reputation that enables him to put out a new LP of original material in 2023. But a 20-year old grandchild leaving the Royal College of Music to pursue a career in pop music would not have the same options, not even of unemployment benefit when not earning. He is sad for that 2020s 20-year old. A very few individuals hit the mega-jackpot via social media, but jobbing musicians have a much harder time than in his day

I could listen to Rick Wakeman speaking for hours

You've done so well Thanks for showing.
Great interview, Rick is always good value.
Good interview, thanks.
Great interview!
God damnit is Rick Wakeman a great story teller or what? What an interesting guy
18:01 Dansette Major with the Garrard turntable; RCA High Fidelity
Prog remains one of the greatest genres.
For sure.
Cue the Music from the 90's,Rick's live performance from 1993 would be great to see again
QANTAS - still here!

10:08 Rick uses KORG 17:31 mini Moog
History is good.
We care about your music🎹
Oh definitely.
👏👏👏👏👏
And sixteen years later Rick could have sold out the palladium ten nights straight. If you build it we will come.
As to the first part of the interview, the only reason we've seen any python is because Terry Jones stole them. Thankfully.

the Archive?.....RUclips....a veritable Library of congress.
yes but I recenlty found out that youtube does not not keep every video posted on it.
I download some.
But a lot of early stuff from come channels is no longer there.
Bet he does not miss living on the Isle Of Manure?
Rick's going to tell us a story about an embarrassing moment he had on the toilet once . wait for it …...
I have The "Chicken Vindaloo" story on a Bootleg live record. Funny as all get out!
@@joecitizen5185 Cool
The words a man who's been lucky beyond his wildest dreams, but the dream is over. He doesn't want it to be. Can you blame him?
Who says it's over and why does it have to be?

@@cuebj Thanks for your thoughtful reply!
Crass of the interviewer to note the visibility of Rick's "attributes" while wearing those skin-tight jumpsuits on stage. Crude.
I agree - it was crude and unnecessary.
He lied!!!! ahahaha
''l'm _crrraap_ at this!!'' xD Yea ....such sloppy atonal garbage! YIKES!! And a real Cretin you are too Rick!
