I was never much of a rock fan. Sure, during my my teenage years (that’s the 70s, youngsters) I was, much of the time, forcibly exposed to all the usual suspects, but it never really did much for me.

All too amazed, then, when searching for modern orchestral music to, umm, ’emulate’ (no, we don’t copy… we emulate…) for a recent job, to find this.

Seems the master of hard rock keyboards had another side to him, and rather a remarkable one. This is really good orchestral music- and to me, far better music than anything he did with those rock dinosaurs …

fresher than they’ve been for a while anyway (though as always the most recent work doesn’t make it to here till at least 6 months after it was created)
