Rick Wakeman - Sir Lancelot and The Black Knight ( Wembley)

[bubblabu]

Just really great stuff

[s00zster]

Those are the crappest horses I've ever seen. They've only got two legs, for a start. :p

[revbookburn]

Classic!

[Fuzzybeanerizer]

Hey, I don't think those are even real horses.

[FLATFEET3]

its a recession erybody broke.. so i just came back to give erybody hopep(jeah)

[alejandroalvial]

jamas habia tenido el placer de visionar estos temas.

en cambio por favor si los he escuchado. grandioso¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[coopstar834]

Young Jeezy and DJ Toomp!!1

[MasterTubeTheatre]

When the 3 nights at Wembley took place, the album had sold less than a million. Months after the concerts, the album went to sell 14 million. So Rick did make the money back from sales after.

[drew44095]

Stonehenge 13" ...oh, how they danced...lmfao!!!

[sadkenny1]

sagewisdom o9  spot on

[varella1000]

feary tale

[MARIAHANDKATEBFFS]

whom is the black knight like who is it really in the myths and stuff

[AleShadows]

For 21 years i have LOVED this song!!!!

truly A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!

[b52ravens]

DIP DIP DIP

[sagewisdom09]

It may look ridiculous on video, but I'd take this any day over the fake, lipsynched concerts everyone does now.

[TheOwl]

So over the top bad that it's hilarious!

This is why punk happened!

[sam81292]

And punk was the cause of decreasing quality of rock music over the years.

[plasticPlaystation]

And then died...

[CharlesDickens99]

Punk was just a sort of back to basics rock and roll. Johnny Rotten was the John Major of Rock, really.

[musicfromhell]

Punk "happened" because musicians stopped caring about the quality of their performance. You could never same the same about Rick Wakeman.

[umdala]

@TheOwl Punk was marketing too - all you gotta do is pay attention. It's no different than In Sync. Johnny was a tool and look what happened. Wakeman was his own man!

[marcosferreira27]

Incrível, nem preciso dizer que ele adora as histórias Arturianas.

[cagun7]

It is not exactly my style of music but i like the Lyrics it has a great point .

C.A.Lancelot

[escobarthefirst]

what album is this song on??

[haarmanke]

The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. A truly epic record!

[smcreuuuuu]

vai toma no cuuuu

[carrietide]

Awesome...

[hafstrat]

One of the fattest minimoog solos in history. Brilliant.

[tuktuktok]

I managed to fool my friend into believing that Bruce Dickinson played with Wakeman before joining Iron Maiden. The other singer does look like him.

[GrayLeader2184]

If those two ever met, the world would explode from epicness.

[williamlitzler]

He should of spent the couple hundred extra pounds for the real skating horses! Still pretty over the top, in a good way.

[ytsename]

Dudee! There's no audio of the Minimoog on the left! In this (original) version, Wakeman played a double solo using two Minimoogs at the same time.

[martynhanson]

what's the matter with prog? Greg lake was pilloried for having one persian carpet, the Sterophonices have three!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wake up. Spinal Tap covers Sex Pistols revivals as well. Also, Hawkwind and the Space Ritual - space travellers? What;s the difference between that and Prog's fantsasies? The difference is vindictive journalists, that;s what the difference is.

[Glasshouse27]

Still amazing though!

[jdclover]

Actually this is really very good. Even if you don't like it, it contibutes to prog rock´s own demise at the hands of punk so everyone wins.

[trux04]

I think it funny. I was listening to a DJ in Virginia Beach, VA not long ago, and he was saying that it was Wakeman's birthday. He went on to say that after leaving YES, Wakeman embarked on a solo tour, which never really got off the ground. I don't know where that DJ got his stats from, but with over a dozen solo albums to his credit (or is it more than that), I would definately say that Wakeman has been a most successful solo artist.

[oS2006DE]

I'm afraid I agree with the "this is atrocious" crowd. There were really good things done in the genre. There was also an industry and when bands weren't doing things like Brain Salad Surgery or Close to the Edge, they still had to eat.

I even dig the Six Wives excerpt from Yessongs, but selling out Wembley for this pretentious crap is WAY over the top.

[thubbathubba]

Missing scenes from This Is Spinal Tap? LOL!

[robert101455]

Ummm...uh, that REALLY SUCKED!!!

[robert101455]

Let me elaborate: when people who weren't there want to know why the 70s SUCKED so much--I was there and I know--this will be the perfect video to show them. People who think SPINAL TAP was some sort of joke will see that it really can't compete with the true level of dumb awfulness that permeated pop music culture of the time. It's why punk rock was so necessary, to cleanse away the garbage.

[PsychicBea]

Excuse me but The Eagles, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Bad Company, The Doobie Brothers, David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Genesis, Queen and the list goes on and on.

You were clearly in prison in the 70's or should have been cuz what you are saying is criminal!!!!!!!!!!!!! The 70's ROCKED!

[Farweasel]

Minor quibble I admit but.... Eagles? Doobies? Queen? Are you covertly posting to support Robert101455's statement?

I'd pay to avoid any & all of those three ;-)

And, well, how to put it?

The rest are 60s bands originally except Bad Company....

....  who were 50% (at one point 75%)the 60s band Free, plus players from Mott the Hoople & 'Crimson!

Mind you, *they* were good enough to support the pro-70s argument alone.

[lovechild888]

These bands may have started in the sixties but they hit it huge in the 70's. I saw Led Zeppelin in '76 and they rocked it. All the bands I listed were at their prime in the

70's in my humble opinion!! Peace out!

[HEAVENSNAUGHTYANGEL]

my dad martyn shields, is the trumpet player,

[Patrickillian]

nice!!! ;)

[couch63]

@HEAVENSNAUGHTYANGEL Cool. Thanks for sharing that.

[MATTMUDORCK]

Otimo.

[hafstrat]

One of the fatest mini moog solos of all times is on this track.

[Aspartamebraintumor]

I love this, how can anyone not like this? I love the rediculous horse costumes

[TheOwl]

@Aspartamebraintumor

Taken as pure comedy, it's PRICELESS. Apparently, Wakey lost a TON of money on these performances, had to fire the orchestra, choir and ice-skaters after about the 3rd performance.

[grandpascorpion]

Delirious foolishness perhaps only topped by Styx's Kilroy movie

[JoshDone]

This is the single greatest argument for not doing drugs, ever.

[schubacca202]

who's the 2nd singer( not ashley holt)

[rhaibrazil]

Love this song!!!

[7assassins]

girls cash cars by cam'ron

[JustyHakubi]

Awesome

[bdubb27510]

boy ... when the british suck ... they REALLY suck!

<br>

<br>

only the combined power of glam rock and figure skating could defeat the black knight

[ELTEX2]

you realy dont have the brains you were born with do you ? IT WAS THE 70'S FOR FREAKS SAKE

World class U.S. keyboard players include Emerson ..... and Mannilow

[marcosfenrir]

Don't be stupid. The British gave us the best rock bands ever.

[billymazdin]

great stuff,superb.

[karnevilj]

I've always wanted to see this concert....many thanks!!

[safuna]

Is this an outtake from Spinal Tap? Or perhaps its inspiration?
