Have to say I do have a bit of a soft spot for Wakeman.
Undoubtedly a very gifted musician and wonderful stage performer.

Just such a shame he doesn’t have an ‘instantly recognisable tune’ that people associate with him.
Unlike Keith Emerson and his occasional rambling performances of Fanfare for the common man for Emerson; Lake and Palmer.
