Rick Wakeman and Adam Wakeman trade keytar licks on a new Rick Wakeman track, Tudorock.
In case there’s any question, that would be Rick Wakeman in the gold cape!
via YesFanDon:
From Rick Wakeman’s Six Wives of Henry VIII concert on May 2, 2009 at Hampton Court Palace. This is an excerpt from one of Rick’s new songs, called Tudorock, played as an encore.
This concert will be available on commercial DVD soon.

Wow…an orchestra, a band with two drummers and Mr. Wakeman wailing away on the keyboards. I noticed the Wakeman concert was being taped so I can't wait for the DVD!
And this is just a day or so after the ELP post. What's next, Genesis footage? Thanks from this prog fan!
Some of that light and vertical lens flare action was awesome. And I SO didn't know Rick Wakeman had a son until now — they look like they're having such great fun.
One thing: capes are most effective to accentuate motion, but they didn't jump around.
A duophonic Wakeman solo? My mind just exploded!
It may be that Rick Wakeman isn't doing a lot of jumping around anymore….
It's real life Spinal Tap…
Speaking of Spinal Tap, Keith Emerson just played at one of their concerts!

Apparently, he plays on a track from their recent studio album.
That is simultaneously awesome and hilarious
Exactly – but Wakeman has the chops that he can get away with it.
