Well my friends, I’ve been listening to Yes since I was 11 years old and am a total fanboy. Do I agree with their decision to replace Jon Anderson with Canadian tribute-band bro? Hell no! But alas, the Yes machine must roll on, whether or not they run all their decisions by me. But I digress…
The point I’m trying to make is that this here Yes fanboy will be talking to the most famous Yes keyboardist, Rick Wakeman on Beyond Beyond is Beyond this Thursday! Wowzers…this makes the second Yes member I’ve had the opportunity to interview!
Rick has always had a successful solo career, and we’ll be talking about his latest project The Six Wives of Henry VIII – Live at the Hampton Court Palace, which is an epic staging from earlier this year of his classic 1973 solo album. He had been petitioning for years to stage the show there at Henry VIII’s house and was finally granted the wish. And Rick is not known to skimp on his projects…the results are absolutely stunning and the sound is fukkin’ tremendous!
And thanks to my friends at Eagle Rock Entertainment and Kayos Productions, I will be giving away copies of the DVD and also the CD to lucky emailers (beyondbeyondisbeyond -at- gmail.com) and Tweeters (http://twitter.com/BBiB). Just be sure to mention your favorite Rick Wakeman joint to be entered!
Oh yeah, and one of the winners will be chosen from the comment section below…
