Piano Vibrations
From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Work
Piano Vibrations was the debut of the English keyboardist Rick Wakeman, released in 1971 by Polydor. At that time he was a session musician and also played with the folk rock group Strawbs. The recording went at lightning speed: four sessions, for which he received 36 pounds in total.
It is not a record of original work. He plays covers of pop, jazz and folk on a grand piano, with the orchestra of John Schroeder and a singer who is known only as Chris. Neither his name nor that of the singer appears on the cover. The album presents a keyboardist at the start of his career, long before the great concept records that would make him famous.
