‘I always say it’s about breaking the rules. But the secret of breaking rules in a way that works is understanding what the rules are in the first place.’ - Rick Wakeman
Happy birthday Rick! Is there a way to describe your brilliance? Your intricate keyboard work, dynamic music, your glittering capes, your congruous sense of humour? You are the one who inspired me to restart my piano and flute playing, to not completely abandon whatever classical training I had previously, because I could use that to my advantage, like you had. I’ve had tremendous fun scrolling through your hilarious Twitter page, and just as much twisting the more golden ones to fit into my PD project. I love you; have a great day, Rick (and some leek and potato soup ohoho).
