Rick Wakeman & David Paton: Eleanor Rigby

[rulo1256]

uhmmmmm i don't like it...

[palmito68]

horrible, espantosa versión de un tema hermoso. chorrea grasa, es un asco total

[brok328]

Dave Paton - more famous for his bass playing with - Pilot, Alan Parsons, Elton John, shows he is also a maestro with the 6 strings. Keep it up Dave. "The Flavours" are not bad either!

[bubblabu]

Absolutely wonderful

1 guy is depth:[ 

[bemyangelo100]

esta pieza musical, suena un poco a Joan Sebastian Bach, en algunos momentos asi como el aire español que le da la guitarra de david paton ex pilot.

[Tireburn1]

What amazes me is he plays WITH HIS EYES CLOSED!!! He is a god!

[kiri38]

Buon giorno Roby, abbiamo la fortuna di condividere la stima su Rick, mio grande e fraterno amico. La prima volta che gli ho sentito suonare questo pezzo, eravamo assieme a Cuba presso la fondazione José Marti, l'ha fatta al gran piano nella sala pubblica della fondazione. Era il mattino alle 10.00 ca. e non ho spauto trattenere le lacrime....L'ha riproposta per me a Estival Jazz a Lugano con l'OSI la grande orchestra della Radio della Svizzera Italiana. Geniale.

[tpm6888]

Even though each syth is awsome...It's useally the one who plays that is good. And awsome... :)

@lifeseeker1 wow, his mother could b an artist too. . Im gna make a song vy painnting my brains up

[spamhead2k]

@spamhead2k 1992

[SerraFlame]

Of course Wakeman doesn't look at the keys, why would God need his eyes open to play impossible music perfectly?

[atticvs53]

Great work by Paton on the guitar....pitifully underrated musician !!

[IlBardoCeleste]

Rick Wakeman is a god of the music

[hook2x3]

the original is perfect cant be redone

[MrsTerrhi]

Nice! Only 2 people creating such magnificent music. Thank you.

[blablaablabla]

wakeman doesn't look at his key at all. DANG !!

[lifeseeker1]

@blablaablabla

I saw an interview with Rick, & he was asked about why he closes his eyes.

He said his mother told him to see music as a painting, and in his mind, to paint the picture.

Interesting concept.

[CanadaMarquis]

1000 THANX.....sooooo goood !!!!

[Mrdoctor666]

where i could get the guitar tab of this song?

[thecrimsonfloyd]

Who was the composer Rick mentioned?

[MrTarantula1956]

Prokofiev.

[malthuswasright]

Forgotten how good David Paton is - I kind of lost track of him post Pilot and Alan Parsons.

[TheMusicWiz]

I love both those guys, but this is rythmically falling totally apart most of the time.

Rick is rushing those staccatos, while David is trying to hold him back :-/

[1yesfan]

Love this. Rick, not much more you can say about him that hasn't been said/written. David Paton, sorry I discovered this very talented musician and singer late even though I've been familiar with much of his work.

[FIXIErider]

Wow!!! The loneliness coming out of that opening guitar....

[ElFlakoRompanTodo]

tango!

[ballademaker]

just one word maestro rick wakeman great musician. the synth roland d50 is a great keyboard one of the best roland have made.5++++++

[ANTONIVSLVCIVS]

Very cool posting.

Thank you so much nebrulla for sharing this great interpretation with me.

Antonio

[YCSMusic]

Brilliant - Dave I hope you've made a full recovery from your heart attack, get touring again !!!

[dvamateur]

One word: Fantastic! The D-50 is a wonderful instrument in hands of Wakeman!

[philturnour]

The synth sounds just like a synth. But Paton is a surprise. I've never understood the logic of talented session musicians playing banal pop like January (actually, I love the music but the lyrics are banal and ruin whatever soul is present in the melody and arrangement). As for Wakeman - he's committed many sins but all is forgiven due to Life on Mars.

[brok328]

Hey Phil - One man's banal, another's great song. Are we talking music banality or music snobery? I think you should listen to his whole catalogue. Do you have to work for your money?

[prog63]

d50 mitica

[stalrunner]

My iTunes calls this "Lancelot and the Black Knight" for some reason.

[urbania70]

Really great couple. Mythic Pilot&APP David Paton shows to be not only great bassist and singer but also virtuous ac. guitarist. Rick Wakeman and Lennon/McCartney don't need presentations.

[brok328]

No bad for a bass player... gaun yersel Davy. Hope you are well.

[NELLOARA]

favoloso!!!!

[theJaydog]

It's magic (Pilot). Just love all his work. and Rick (6 wives), is awesome, too

[skruvjern]

The great Roland D-50 and Rick Wakeman playing it. Could it be any better? Makes me proud of owning a D-50

[jalland]

He's using Internal patch 14 (I-14) , right? D-50 rocks!

[skruvjern]

When i bought my D-50, the internal presets were gone. I have loaded some of the presets over to the synthesizer, such as "Living Calliope" and "Soundtrack".

[jalland]

They were? I didn't know that was possible. Living Calliope is an awesome patch though, and there's a lot of preset cards out there.

[skruvjern]

The previous owner removed all the presets replacing them with other sounds, good sounds. I have the presets on my computer, so I can send them to the synthesizer by MIDI.

[jalland]

All righty, that's okey I guess. As long as it isn't broke. Happy synthesizing xD

[skruvjern]

Thanks! All I need to do is to clean the touchboard under the keys to make them function properly :D

[danman745]

incredible

[Edsgirl52]

Get well soon David, and get those Magic fingers going again!

[RadioBazterd]

A great advert for the legendary Roland D-50 synth, 2 fantastic musicians in Dave & Rick.

Just excellent.

[Edsgirl52]

David your fingers are magic!!!
