    There will never be another Rick Wakeman. Fortunately, one keyboard/pianist is enough for us to marvel at and enjoy.

    My sweet cat Thistle died one month ago. Too young. Just 6 years old. In the summertime. She genuinely loved music. Whatever I played. On whatever instrument or speaker, she was there. Yes was no exception. Nor was jazz. I need this right now more than anything. Thank you, Rick. Thank you more than you can know.

    I always told everyone that, a musician is not who I am but •what• I am. Music is in my cells, my DNA! Then came...
    "Inbuilt into human form
    A symphony of sight & sound
    Life direction in music found
    Or left to die unborn"
    It's what I've been saying all along! I was blown away.
    Rick...and Keith changed my life.

    I love this song. You can almost feel the summer heat and hear the grasshoppers singing and the sense of just laying around enjoying it all. Wow!

    I remember seeing Rick during his farewell tour with Yes at the San Diego Sports Arena way back in the 70's - holding up my Bic lighter at the end of each song. where did the time go?

  • @ZippyThePinhead
    @ZippyThePinhead 2 роки тому +2

    Whether it's with all the synth embellishments, or on a grand piano this is still a fantastic piece of music. Got to see him a couple weeks ago doing his solo music/comedy show. He didn't do this song, but he did play Sea Horses which was equally a thrill for me. Hopefully he'll tour again soon, I'd most definitely go see him again.

      He's really good I agree 👍 (Although I admit, haven't heard much from him) - right after Tony Banks - who I think is master of the keys (but there's enough space on the keys for both of them) 😁

    I love his rendition of this piece on the album Rhapsodies, it positively smokes with the atmospheric vibe of a musician at the very top of his game, rendering a true classic. This version whilst quite nice does not quite hit the peaks of that version. lovely all the same.

    • @skeezix64
      @skeezix64 Рік тому

      I agree. And what a fantastic album Rhapsodies is. I bought the double LP at a teenager in the late 70s and played the hell out of it. It was such a departure from Yes, and while it has a bit of a disco flair on many songs, others definitely hold up 45 years alter.

    One of my favourite all time songs it is so well written difficult to do a bad version . Until this version, that made me melt it's so beautiful, Larry addlers harmonica performance on Parkinson years ago was my favourite. Loved this. Thank you. Will stay with me in the same way.

    as a youngster i too like jimmy page haere used to play the tin whistle, only i was good at it, i once earned a quid or two down stepney playing to passers by, i bet he wishes he could aspire to my level of ability, if he asked nicely i could give him a few pointers, like always blow don't suck, the sound is much better, there that'll be ten quid please mate... paypal will do, payable to riger the bragger and busker dave's mate... nice .
    also if he needs a decent hair cut, my girlfriend can do a bang up job for a bag of chips and a six pack of ace larger, cos really the mop top hair style has had its day and is all great if your a pop star like benny twiggs, who performs down our local youth club, he can get away with these modern outlandish styles, but really mate you have to smell the roses eventually, only a few of us make it to such dazzling heights as hackney youth club on saturdays and wednesdays, the rest of us have to face upto grim reality and get a decent haircut you may need to get a job meantime like a clippie on the busses, and you cant have a strange modern haircut then. no i suggest a simple n02 crew cut, maybe get a tattoo , i don't know a heart with mum inside, take care you dont choose dad its a bit poofy a love heart on a man saying "Dad " unless you want the world to think your a accursed shirt lifter. be warned (in my youth i stupidly got, "Insert penis up here" and an arrow pointing at my Arse, a simple error any pissed up lad could make ,
    Anyway in a nutshell, you will have to admit you are a talentless would be shirt lifter, unless you happen to be someone like Rick Wakeman now he can juggle and ride a unicycle clearly a talented man, you won't see him with that sort of hairdo. well its a fact you see...LMFAO
    seriously i jest i love and admire rick wakeman and all talented creative souls, yes even you (the reader)

      ​@@Instone09ine you may not believe this ,
      but then you might, i dump this sort of ramble haphazardly around youtube, just to catch you all unguarded and spring one on you, my it's fun as is farting in phoneboxes (indoor kind works best, outdoors don't last)
      i wrote some guidelines a while back, (but) they devolved into a one sided self argument that i bloody lost can you credit that. yes i espekt zo...oh my gf went and proposed recently........ (not to me sadly. ha ha thats funny NOT) so as i no longer like her. to celebrate i'll post another old ramble for free, just for old times..
      (darling please don't go) ,,,,,, oh seems it was me she proposed to, cor i obviously don't know who i am some days....
      ok that post.... i'll just add the tail so you can't easily find it and say..... true story, where was I?...
      Oh love this song / band /celeb /chef /politician / footballer/ mammal/ country / ascii character/ dna sequence (*please del as req) now why did I tell you my life story exactly,? oh yes I was bored stupid.....
      does anyone else have any alzheimer's triggered ramblings they would like to inflict upon others, well go to youtube (you will find it on line under youtube i think) then find a great bit of music or anything you fancy (no not that fool), vaguely link your ramblings to it and so ensuring people will start reading it, then the rest is yours, include some people they don't know and be as irrelevant as you can, even add this bit at the end encouraging others to do likewise, it sort of fills a boring day when the medication (that nice man with the stethoscope lets you have) run out. pity you can't add images and sounds to these comments as i do have a beauty for you, you should see it, its flippin crazy. next time maybe i'll describe it on some random video I target look out for that fans. LMFAO. laters.
      i should get my own channel (oh i have). but
      remember darwin was wrong
      we can see sound if we listen long enough, but not round corners
      okay anyway don't tell my girlfriend this (shhhhh ) .... this woman keeps giving me the eye, actually it's not surprising as she's an optician and i will keep losing my glass eye. oh that's bad..
      there's worse, like i'm always on the GO,
      well I went and lost my monopoly dice you see. ouch
      that's all you get for free sorry hehehehe
