E Vuje’ (And You) – This is almost Ocean City’s Rhythm. Rick is using his 80’s moog substitute and a fair bit in this track. The backing in quiet parts is like "The meeting" from AWBH I think. Again the sound I can’t name but used only on these albums and therefore I feel Italian…

Rick Wakeman and Mario Fasciano – Stella Bianco
Stella Bianco(White Star) – This has a medieval beat to it. Rick solos on Moog type sounds a couple of times. These is as a sound I don’t know how to described perhaps bells or guitar done on keyboard A quatte mane (At Four Hands) – My favourite track for some reason. It uses the…
Rick Wakeman – Return To The Centre Of The Earth

Disciple – Damian Wilson
In his Career Damian Wilson has sang with Threshold, Landmarq, Jeronimo Road, Ayreon and Rick Wakeman. I wasn’t keen on him in Jeronimo Road and I have reservations about his voice in some parts of Wakeman’s catalogue but I found him OK overall and he is a really nice bloke personally. Damian has also sung…
