What part of fingers blurring (not just because of the bad video) does not tell you this guy is one of the best ? I have seen many fine jazz musicians and many do not keep up with Rick Wakeman. No way.....
lol you couldnt play faster than him even if you were just playing random shit, and its not patterns, its theory, modes and arpeggios and chord intervals. not patterns
As I keep saying,any 4th year piano major has chops like that. Boring diatonic patterns all his licks sound like Irish jigs on acid. He is the ultimate square ....man...
iflygius thank you for that comment because u didnt insult rick nor jordan because they are both good and it doesnt matter whos better in my oppinion its whos got talent
rick wakeman is an amazing keyboardist and this video makes it apparent that he has absolutely amazing finger dexterity, but i still prefer jordan rudess' playing style, and the fact that jordan uses 1 keyboard whereas rick uses 4/5
thunderfingers515 if you are talking to me then please tell me why i am stupid because it shouldnt be about a fuckin oppinion did i insult rick no i actually gave him a musicians compliment instead of being a stupid idiot who just says fuk this guy because so and so is better because it doesnt matter whos better it matters about whos got talent and in my oppinion jordan rudess has talent
LOL...guys who critice Dream Theater or, jordan or anyone? this people has been working very hard for a long time...are u better than then? if not, shut the fuck up! ^^ sorry for my bad english -.-'
metalwillhatecrew => Jordan Rudess went to Julliard when he was 9, he is a prodigy, and now he plays in a band that plays one of the most technical kind of music ever so I doubt that your professor was better...
And if you meant that your teatcher was better artistically, then you're an idiot because there is no one who is the best in art.

so why is it that you think speed is so important? I can play faster than him, it will sound like shit, but I can, does that make me better?
I think it has something to do with the scales and patterns involved... not just the speed.

He's really good. But i preffer vangelis when he is improvising.
Just type:Vangelis 7- Part 7 of 13- Improvisation on French TV in 1993, in the search field if you haven't seen vangelis live.
