RICK WAKEMAN IN THE '80S

I am currently putting the final touches to a reissue of Dan Wooding's smashing biography of Rick Wakeman. It covers his life and doings in the 1970s in massive detail. It is a great book, and furthermore onee that I have enjoyed working on, bevause not only is Dan a really nice guy, but his book is interesting and has dozens of really rare pictures.

But what happened next? Purely by chance I found this site with an overview of Rick's work - album by album - during the 1980s, and I thought that it was so interesting that I should share it..

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
