The Myths & Legends of Rick Wakeman

Ep 7: Al Stewart, Studios and Pirate Radio

The Myths & Legends of Rick Wakeman

Show Notes

He's back! The keyboard wizard that is Rick Wakeman returns with another episode of his podcast, The Myths & Legends Of Rick Wakeman.

In this episode, Rick talks about Studios. You might think that one recording studio is the same as another but NO, and they especially weren't in the 1960's and 1970's when Rick was the go-to red-hot super-star session keyboard player of choice for literally hundreds of artists. Find out more about Rick's session for Al Stewart's 'Orange' album too.

Then there's a subject close to Rick's heart, Pirate Radio and in particular, the UK DJ Ed Stewart .

Also, and you'd know this if you went to Rick's house, he likes to collect things. Find out about one of his prized collections including his Osmiroids.

Remember to contact Rick on the podcast, email [email protected] and find out all about his touring, recording and rambling at www.rwcc.com. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
