Day 143: The Battle, Journey to the Centre of the Earth, Rick Wakeman

Another good Youtube find. This album came out before War of the Worlds (see yesteday’s post) and I guess is now long forgotten. Yet the journey to the centre of the earth musical production is certainly well worth listening to although admittedly very 70s. Originally I had a live performance of this masterpiece but alas it got taken down by Youtube. This version I think is from Rik Wakeman’s official Youtube channel so hopefully it won’t get taken down in the future.
