The man definitely needs no further introduction \u2013 RICK WAKEMAN is a musical legend both solo and of course because of his stints with YES.\u00a0 After many years of absence, \u201cThe Red Planet\u201c is his first proggy solo effort and a really exciting one it has become. All instrumental eight parts come with prominent help from IT BITES bass player Lee Pomeroy; skinsman Ash Soan (ex SQUEEZE) and longtime cohort for more than 20 years, Dave Colquhoun, on guitar. Together they are \u201cThe English Rock Ensemble\u201c and deliver a damn good performance. The CD is reminiscent of Ricks most famous solo attempt \u201cThe Six Wives of Henry VIII\u201c from 1973. Finally Mr. WAKEMAN dedusted his old analogue keyboards which make the record sound even better. Song lenghts vary from five to ten music, which is quite okay for a prog album and shouldn\u2018t ask for too much from the \u201cnormal listener\u201c. The music fans however who haven’t liked WAKEMAN’s keyboard wizardry before won\u2018t change their minds now. But the ones who already have been keen on his work – like me – will absolutely love \u201cThe Red Planet\u201c!\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
