The Myths & Legends of Rick Wakeman

Chris Squire or Lee Pomeroy, Carry On films & Jongleurs

Season 1, Ep. 25

In this crazy world of Wakeman, you never know quite what's going to happen next.


Take this episode of The Myths & Legends Of Rick Wakeman for example. One minute we're talking about Carry On Films and the next it's Bass Players as Rick reveals his favourite bassists of all time.


Then there's his recollections of Strawbs gigs, somewhat hazy I have to say, plus his time on Australian TV.


All in all, it's another gripping insight into Rick's fascinating head. Enjoy.
