This late 1968 release seemed innocent enough at the time; and actually, it was a sincere effort to use a then newly-practical interpretive instrument, the Moog synthesizer, in a decidedly traditional musical manner. Indeed, at the time, it was simply extending -- in a somewhat more forward-thinking direction -- the kind of attention that had been devoted to Johann Sebastian Bach's music as early as 1782, barely over 30 years after the composer's death, when Mozart wrote a set of string trio arrangements of some of Bach's keyboard works. Heard 40 years on, the approach here seems very tame and formal, but in 1968 it offended some Baroque purists (of whom there were relatively few) and a lot of classical music Luddites (of whom there were a lot more); but it still became the first classical music LP ever to be certified for a Platinum Record Award, by selling to hundreds of thousands ...

$11.79
Twenty-five years after the release of Rick Wakeman's groundbreaking Journey to the Centre of the Earth album, a sequel entitled Return to the Centre of the Earth was released, this time including a who's who of musicians and vocalists. Still employing the London Symphony Orchestra to accompany his plethora of keyboards, Wakeman uses Patrick Stewart of Star Trek: The Next Generation fame to narrate the story and former Yes guitarist Trevor Rabin for some spicy solos. But, even with famed vocalists like Justin Hayward, Bonnie Tyler, and Ozzy Osbourne in the spotlight, the music gets lost in fields of pretentious instrumental clamoring and strays far from Wakeman's intentional story line. Not enough time is given to enjoy Wakeman's artistry because of an overabundance of other instruments and unnecessary hubbub that disappointingly drown out his synthesizers. When Wakeman is caught playing, he falls short of his polished self, sounding rushed and irregular. His first Journey album sounded clean and finessed, thanks to simple organization and the fact that the focal point was aimed at his masterful keyboard playing. On the Return album, the music is louder, messier, and somewhat musically obtuse since it contains too many fragments of instruments, almost sounding like heavy metal at times. Even Patrick Stewart seems to be a little too long-winded throughout most of the album's duration. If programmed properly, the disc can be heard in the narrative only, or just the instrumentals. Wakeman's idea for a sequel was a good one, but he should have kept to his crisp progressive formula. Instead, the album falls prey to an evident case of overproduction and a classic example of the "too many cooks" cliché. ~ Mike DeGagne
Rick Wakeman's sequel to Journey of the Centre of the Earth, Return to the Centre of the Earth celebrates the original prog-rock masterpiece's 25th anniversary. Return to the Centre of the Earth tells the story of three explorers coming back to the path of their original expedition, only to embark on another fantastic adventure. The London Symphony Orchestra, the English Chamber Choir, Ozzy Osbourne, Bonnie Tyler, the Moody Blues' Justin Hayward and Yes' own Trevor Rabin are among the musical luminaries that contributed ...
