The singer fantastic and wakeman one ef the gest of all the ages. Thnks.

Rick Wakeman - a genius of progressive rock music! I love this music and melodies, they make me dream and relax... ¡Viva Cuba y toda la gente increible que hay allí!

I've loved Rick Wakeman's music since his albums came out, yeah, I was a teen. Still have them. Some of my favorite music of all time. Great concert! Thanks for sharing. Editing to say I have totally lost count of how many times I have listened to this. Gets better and better...and I can't figure out HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? Off the scale...out of this world.

I remember going to bed at night as a child with the sounds of Rick Wakeman journey to the center of the earth and king author and the knight's of the round table. So soothing. I'm now in my mid 50s and play them for my kid's. So good to see Rick Wakeman Still playing for us all.

Thank you Sir Rick Wakeman for all your delicate music. By the way there is no one second to you.

Love this performance SO MUCH! ALL of them are amazing musicians, and at peak form! Ashley's singing is Exceptional!

Hi Neil.... Thanks for mentioning Keith....I agree, tapping along, maybe. But I feel Keith went just a tad overboard...at times.... I prefer Rick. Sorry. I love ELP.... but mainly for Greg Lake.... He brought that group together. The keyboards were good..Brilliant even...don't get me wrong... But a bit too much. At times. So sorry at the loss of Keith & Greg..... So sad. Asi es la vida.

Desde meus quinze (15) anos; hoje com sessenta e cinco anos, acompanho o músico, Rick Wakeman. Perdi a oportunidade de assistir, quando da sua vinda a capital de Minas. Espetáculo musical! 🎼

Lo mejor de lo mejor que he visto de Rick ! Los musicos y el vocalista una maravilla! Que espectaculo por Dios!! Me emocione !!!

Outstanding performance.

The magic is in the vocals but Mr. Wakeman, is an inspiration!

Saw Rick on tour in 1975 in Bilbao, Spain....Since then I´m entangled. Awesome performance In Cuba aswell. "Journey" is my favourite work, still is fresh and weird.

I listened to Journey to the Center of the Earth in 1975 while out on Submarine patrol. I listened on a boom box and giant headphones while in my bunk. I've been a fan ever since! I'm 67 now...

l'm on my 8th time watching this show! l cant BELIEVE how _GOOD_ it is!! l timed Ricks soloing in Catherine Parr, and it was over 8 minutes! Those boards were amazing! He played beautifully! Lee, Ash, and Davids Chops are incredible! Ash's dynamic percussion style, and flawless _timing,_ added to his tricky 'skippity pops, shows just how how _outstanding_ a drummer he is! Close to perfect actually! Lee is outa this _world!_ What a absolute treasure! Another dynamic player that does WAY more than just play fence post rhythms. The man is a _Premo_ craftsman, that weaves pumping melodies around Ricks playing bringing it up to EPIC realms rarely heard before! Davids solos are suspenseful, emotion laden, beauties! Just _breathtaking!_ These boys are the TIGHTEST Wakemen line up l've EVER seen! This show brought Rick's compositions to a WHOLE new level for me, after 38 years of listening. l REALLY _GOT_ IT! The pieces are STUNNING! He made the songs LONGER, and full of suspense. lt was mixed beautifully!! BRAVO Wakey! You _smacked_ it RIGHT OUTA THE ATMOSPHERE!

I remember how great the 70's was with alot of talented progressive rock bands, the bands like YES, Jethro Tull, Genesis etc. As a drummer in a band the keyboardist turned me on to an album which I considered a masterpiece, 6 wives of Henry VIII, A must listen. My mentors where Alan White and Barriemore Barlow oh and of course Ian Paice. Great Times

Rick Wakeman is already incredible and this band is phenomenal! fresh, strong and intense!
