Rick Wakeman of Yes on Writing Music About Outer Space... and David Bowie
As the Artemis II mission continues around the Moon, it seemed like a good time to revisit this 2021 interview with keyboardist Rick Wakeman. Wakeman cemented his reputation as one of the godfathers of progressive rock after joining Yes in 1971. The keyboardist’s first album with the band, Fragile, included two staples of classic rock radio: “Roundabout” and “Long Distance Runaround.”
