why can't he be himself and neil be neil? Plus they play nothing alike. And good drummers are everywhere. Neil was a great TEAM player and a pretty okay drummer. Nothing more.
Catherine Parr is one of my favorite RW tunes. This rendition although fantastic, is a way bit behind (IMHO) the version played in Buenos Aires (Luna Park) with Ant Glynne on electric guitar.
Great stuff, EXCEPT the video work. I don't know where it has become the 'thing' to have 10 cameras available and for it to be a mortal sin to sit on one of them more than 1-2 seconds, but I HATE it. Rick's best solo parts were ignored throughout the piece. I really would have liked to see his hand work, and for more than one second each time. Have people really gotten so unable to maintain focus and attention for more than two seconds that this nonsense is required? Somehow I doubt it. Pick a camera and stay on it for at least 20-30 seconds, especially during the close up solo work. Just because you have the capability to switch cameras like a manic switch flipper doesn't mean you should. I've gotten to the point where I find it relaxing to watch some of the musicians on YT who just film through ONE or two cameras, even better when it's an overall shot and close up split screen on the action. Having different camera angles and positions is a great idea, just use them intelligently, IMHO it would make for much more enjoyable watching. Does anybody really like this? It makes me dizzy and is detracting, personally. I realize I'm not the only fish in the sea, but good grief. Fantastic job, Rick and company, sure would have been nice to SEE it.
I feel the same, fully agree. Older live footages are much more pleasant in relation to camera work. I love Old Grey Wistle Test series particularly, they show each musician actually playing up close
I’ll probably piss off some Wakeman fans by saying this, but I’m gonna say it: I never really dug any of his “symphonic” stuff. It all seemed kind of pompous and overblown. I always liked him better with basic rock instrumentation-bass, drums, guitar, and his keyboards (of course)-like he did with “Six Wives.” Did he ever return to that kind of thing in later years?
Great !!!
I was glad that Jon and Rick got to jam together before Jon picked the short straw. Loved YES and Deep Purple. Those days are gone forever
We never lived in beethoven times or mozart etc but we do in rick wakeman times he will go down in history like the rest
Bass sounds insane!
Love the 'Six Wives'! Brilliant stuff!
Awesome Song 🎹🎸
Amazing Classic 😎🏆🔥
Happy Birthday Mr. Rick Wakeman,

Maestro sublime e inarrivabile, e grandissima band!
Lee Pomeroy on bass. Great player. Love this band.
Greatest!
Rick is still top-notch makes me sad he was never able to tour with Keith Emerson that would’ve been a fantastic
RICK, YOU ARE THE BEST KEYBOARD PLAYER OF ALL TIME.

The blonde-haired "Dark Scientist" at wor in "the lab of his mind." His talent was the grandeur of Yes!"

Gracious👂🏽 Amigo RICK🎶
Always fun to listen to Rick. That drummer is just outstanding ( the next Neil Peart)
Cheers!
Agree! Drum part is quite sophisticated. Bassist is great too
why can't he be himself and neil be neil? Plus they play nothing alike. And good drummers are everywhere. Neil was a great TEAM player and a pretty okay drummer. Nothing more.
There’s a whole lot of people who say Neil was the best. Everyone has their own style
The Master 🎹🎹🎼
Well, that was simply glorious 👍
SUPERB. Thank you Rick you are incredible
Muy bueno 😃

Magnifico concierto.
Lee Pomeroy tremendously great bass player.
…. and left-handed !!!!!
he also played in ARW
Sensacional 👏👏👏
Tremendo, maestro, the keyboard wizard!
Keyboard King 🎹

I sometimes wonder if Rick has more than two arm/hands under that cape of his???? Hmmmm.
Great !
GREAT 💙❤💚💛🧡💜

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nicely Done!!Cheers!!;-)!!
Thank you to the master Rick. For those of you here is some good advice, check out 6 wives of Henry the VIII, unbelievable shit.

I agree on the camera switching & why have so much camera movement. It feels like a travel sickness hazard!

Ahhh, those FAST FINGERS
D string a bit flat on the bass?
Well Rick , you still have a bit of gas sir. lol
Life long fan of Rick, however, as I get older I realize Rick plays all the same notes on all of he's solo's but not necessarily in the right order.
Well there's only twelve different notes to begin with....

I know I'm weird for liking this. My girlfriend would call it incel music.
great track, but drummer praying for it to get back onto something he could acentuate instead of 12 days of hi hat repetition.

Rick's recent album, The Red Planet, is exactly like that with some of the same musicians as on this clip
@@philgorner9836 Thanks, Phil!
No prons!
That should have been no probs...oops
