The Six Wives of Henry VIII

by Rick Wakeman

Recorded while he was simultaneously transforming Yes into global superstars, Rick Wakeman's solo instrumental debut is a staggering synthesizer spectacle. 'The Six Wives of Henry VIII' is an incredibly dense, fiercely technical symphonic prog concept album, utilizing banks of Moogs and Mellotrons to craft highly complex, beautifully melodic historical portraits of the Tudor queens.
