I listened to at least 30 Dexys songs tonight. Kevin Rolland is a master of soul and Irish folk combined.

Rick Wakeman.
Keyboard genius.
Only one who came close was Keith Emerson.

Quality tunes.

My interest in music is songs and melody.
Songwriting was not a strength of these guys so although I listened to much of their work back in the day I have never felt the need to revisit them in the last 40 years.

I do like that Wakeman played the Mellotron on Space Oddity and Bowie invited him to be the keyboard player in the Spiders From Mars. He declined and joined Yes instead.

He is a funny guy with good comedic timing as well as a great musician so perhaps he could combine both and release another concept album "The 4 Wives of Rick Wakeman" He was catching Henry fast for a while.

She was very hot.
Was she visiting your camera club?

Wakeman has an extraordinary story about meeting the Queen Mother when he was a music student. Worth searching out if you don't know it.

I was hoping for something involving booze, drugs or shagging. A fucking horse?
