Sons of Rick....

[DarkStar]

anyone here listen to Adam or Oliver??

I think Oliver's work is just incredible. Jabberwocky and the new one with Steve, 3rd Age of Magick are awesome. Adam does great work as well.

I've heard several of Adams cd's, but never any of Oliver's. I see Oliver just came out with another one called the Hound of the Baskervilles. It also features Clive Nolan (Pendragon, Arena) on keys and Peter Banks on guitar.

Adam's name comes up sometimes when us fans are speculating who the next keyboardist will be. He's definitely got his dad's genes.

Adam has, in fact, played with Yes on at least 1 occasion (that I know of) when Igor was delayed. Below is a pic from the Manchester Apollo with Adam on keyboards for the encore with the band.

Oliver's work is absolutely wonderful. Jabberwocky is perhaps the best album to have come out in the last few years. The Hound of the Baskervilles is quite good as well, with much more narration than Jabberwocky, and although almost just as good, doesn't get as many spins as Jabber. Both have "all star" casts, with fantastic vocalists, including Tracy Hitchings!! The best female vocalist in the biz!!!

Oliver and Clive's styles are different and they really complement each other perfectly. A lot of people say Ol sounds just like his dad, when in fact it's Clive playing those parts... really!!! Clive is the closest thing to the 70's Wakeman around today, including Wakey himself!!!

The 3 Ages of Magick... all good yesheads gotta have this one! Oliver and Steve really hit it off. Nice keyboards and acoustic guitars. Steve does not over do it, and becomes the perfect guest artist! I respect him greatly as he has never tried to take the spotlight (for this album) away from Oliver.

Oliver has a few other albums worth listening to as well -

Thank you all for the info.

I've never listened to Oliver and now I have no doubt I'll buy some of his CDs.

Adam is so great. I haven't hear any of his solo albums but I have some of the albums he recorded with Rick.

I also have the Buenos Aires DVD and he's just amaizing.

When I spoke to Rick a few weeks ago, he told me Adam is now touring with a band and and after he will probably join Rick for a solo tour.

I hope they tour the west.

Adam now plays with Black Sabbath.
