[Holyroller411]

Immense keyboard playing! As someone also now in his 50's, I too remember Rick, Yes and the like being key in my formative years. Bring back The Old Grey Whistle Test - with Whispering Bob Harris!

[MrRodrick2010]

Tendria yo 15 años cuando me trajeron este disco de inglaterra y lo cambie por el 1º de Police, los dos grandes en su estilo!!!! Long Live to Rock!!!!

[marioluis2008]

¡¡¡Un grande Rick!!!

[vowywowy]

at 6:50 he tears into the greatest solo I have ever heard.

[Skyhawkct]

Does anyone have the orginal aired on the ABC network in the early 70's? This is great, but I remember Rick with banks of old (by today's standards) monophonic synths and mellotrons.

[bjcsupertortoise]

1 person is illiterate. Sorry...

[Crazianlord]

4 people are death

[willibehistory]

Have a look at AMAZONNE - MAN OF THE NORTH. Folk Metal Band, with an outstanding keyboard player. Just look at her speed during the solo, as well as how good the rset of her playing is. Amazonne have loads of videos on You Tube, if you like keyboards, take a look.!!!!!!

[aqualung]

Someone said once: Rick Wakeman is an allien.

[hd868832000]

the God of the keyboard ...RICK WAKEMAN ROCKS

[tato747]

look at that, Steve Wozniac singing! lol

[XvenJ]

I listened to Journey to the Center of the Earth since I was old enough to put a stylus on an LP. It defined me :)

[tsunchoo]

this is real!

[1IAMFINE]

i was young but remember the whole story was aired on A B C on a friday or sat. night it was great !

[2000mmar]

[MaleficusMonocerus89]

[oldschoolhawk]

HEY

[MrFuser222]

I paid $550 for a quadraphonic system in 1975 just to hear this song, I still love it, I prefer the original, but oh well.

[RexRed2]

great cosmic orb of such divine introspection

[bolawarrior]

@RexRed2

0.0001 pct of all people reading this understand it.

[ThePeeterd]

old fasioned quality like these groups used to produce.

artist from today learn something and eat your hearts out.

[mattistvan]

I saw him play with Yes "In The Round" in Rochester, probably 75 or 76. So awesome!

[swyman10]

@mattistvan I saw him twice, once with Yes and once solo after Yes around 73, 74, 75 about same as you, great wasn't it?

[VinnyAndrade2010]

Rick is God PERIOD

[isitreallyaspider]

I got this a birthday gift in 1974, saw him in concert Buffalo, NY

[mocyoung]

This concert is from a television programme called "Bedrock" which was on in the late 80s/very early 90s... I have a copy of the full programme on VHS in mono, degraded... how did you get the original concert in such excellent quality? Could you rip the whole Journey as an MP3 as I consider this performance the quintissential live version.

[npajaro]

@skatolp it's a reworking from Edvard Grieg's "In the Hall of the Mountain King", included in the "Peer Gynt" suite.

[bubblabu]

Great version! Than you for sharing.

[MrChoongtzientao]

i was 16 when i heard this on a LP. i am now 53 and it still is magic to my ears.

just close my eyes and feel the music. this is still fantastic

[egotealsolvo]

Like me, my friend. ! was born in 1957. From Sevilla city, South of Spain. Still I have the record.

[morrisati]

@MrChoongtzientao

Yes I remember too, first the book I read and after I bought this LP. Some years ago...Happy memories.. / love Maja

[Srtoucan2010]

@MrChoongtzientao

I'm the same age and I used to spend all my money buying Rick Wakeman's Lp's.I still have them all.My treasures.

[aqualung]

@MrChoongtzientao, same, born 1958, I got the vinyl LP and after that I made sure I had it recorded in every cassette so I could play it in my stereo, cuadrophonic and lastly walkman. And now, I have the video, CD and DVD, a piece of art that should last 'til the end of humand kind. Not easy to find music of that quality nowadays.

[SRNF]

@MrChoongtzientao you sir are old.....and I salute you.

[performtransform]

@MrChoongtzientao ~ I was 15...and it still resonates with me 'til this day. I'm only now realizing what a profound effect Rick's music and Yes had on me...One might say it planted the seeds of The Revealing Science of God. Where did that spirit go?

[thoorbear]

@MrChoongtzientao I couldn't agree more... I am also 53 now, and this is magic. It was magic in 1974, but it is still unparallelled...

[Robinhoodmdo]

I agree, THE MEN for rockpianomusic since ever...

[Mtqueen3]

This guy is one of the best key board players ever.I have been listening to jttce since it came out in the 70's on on a 2 sided album.This short version is good too,only rick could get all the parts in there and make it sound good.
