I remember being sat in my car on the drive completely mesmerised by this. I later got tickets to the first of the nationwide shows he did after this. Front seats right in front of him - I literally could not take my eyes off his fingers sweeping across the keys. Absolutely amazing. He’s an absolute genius.
The first concert I ever went to was Rick Wakeman, it was at Crystal Palace (South London) way back when, I think it was called "journey to the center of the earth" all a bit hazy because of the red wine and "stuff" :-)
