Piano Album [CD/DVD]

by Rick Wakeman

Overview

This excellent solo piano album (also released, in fact, as The Piano Album) was recorded at Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, California in 1994. It's a wide-ranging survey of Wakeman's career, featuring new instrumental versions of songs Wakeman recorded with Yes, ABWH, and the Strawbs; songs he recorded as a sideman with David Bowie ("Space Oddity" and "Life On Mars") and Cat Stevens ("Morning Has Broken"); and solo material both classic and recent, including a definitive version of "Gone But Not Forgotten." Wakeman is in great form throughout, and this is one of his most enjoyable releases. (There's also a matching video, also titled Simply Acoustic.) ~ Stephen Raiteri
