About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Rick Wakeman's sequel to Journey of the Centre of the Earth, Return to the Centre of the Earth celebrates the original prog-rock masterpiece's 25th anniversary. Return to the Centre of the Earth tells the story of three explorers coming back to the path of their original expedition, only to embark on another fantastic adventure. The London Symphony Orchestra, the English Chamber Choir, Ozzy Osbourne, Bonnie Tyler, the Moody Blues' Justin Hayward and Yes' own Trevor Rabin are among the musical luminaries that contributed to the album, and actor Patrick Stewart lends a hand as narrator. Return to the Centre of the Earth includes instrumental pieces like "The Return Overture" as well as vocal tracks like "Still Waters Run Deep" and "Buried Alive," which come together for a unique musical storytelling experience.

January 18, 2007: This album is a sequel to Rick Wakeman's 1974 album "Journey To The Center Of The Earth". In this album when you hear the voice of Patrick Stewart as the narrator, Star Trek fans are in for a treat to a great album, and this album features guests vocalists as well. Ozzy Ozbourne on "Buried Alive", Bonnie Tyler known for one of her hit songs "Totally Eclipse Of The Heart" appears on "Is Anybody There", The Moody Blues' Justin Hayward on "Still Waters Run Deep", but on "Never Is A Long Long Time" Yes fans will enjoy this one since Trevor Rabin who indeed joined Yes in the early '80s, provides lead vocals and guitar. Fans of symphonic pops music will come to appreciate this album as well, because one of the world's greatest symphony orchestras, the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by David Snell makes a outstanding contribution to this outstanding album.
