One of the premier rock keyboardists of the progressive era, Rick Wakeman cut his teeth as a London session musician at the tail-end of the sixties and early seventies. He played on more than 2,000 records, including such hits as Cat Stevens’ “Morning Has Broken” and David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” and “Life on Mars,” and worked with a real eclectic mixture of other notable artists, such as Donovan, Cilla Black, Marc Bolan, Black Sabbath, Lou Reed, Mary Hopkin, Dana, Al Stewart, Elton John and John Williams.  

Following his stint as a session musician, Wakeman earned star status as a member of the prog rock superstar group Yes. His involvement in the group earned him an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. As a solo artist, he has released over 90 albums, spanning a range of musical styles.
