Rick Wakeman presents the first in a four-part series bringing you some of his favourite keyboard tracks from artists like Emerson Lake & Palmer to Elton John and Rod Argent and not forgetting the amazing Mrs Mills.

In this first show, Rick also chats to fellow rock pianist Don Airey. Keyboard player with Deep Purple since 2002, he has also written and played keyboards for artists like Gary Moore, Ozzy Osborne, Rainbow and Andrew Lloyd Webber. Rick and Don chat about how he started his career playing on a cruise ship before being spotted playing live in a London club and being invited to play with Cozy Powell. Don also treats us to a live version of one of his own compositions on the Elton John piano. And you can hear a live version of Fire by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown recorded at a session for the BBC back in 1968.
