About this album
Journey To The Centre Of The Earth is Rick Wakeman’s most ambitious solo statement, a symphonic prog suite that turned keyboard virtuosity into a blockbuster concept. Issued in 1974, it was inspired by Jules Verne’s novel and built around a large-scale performance with orchestra, choir and rock ensemble, giving Wakeman’s elaborate keyboard writing a theatrical sweep few rock records of the era matched. The album became a major chart success in the UK and helped define his reputation beyond Yes, proving that progressive rock could reach a wide audience without losing its scale or imagination.
