Rick Wakeman – Made In Cuba

From the press release, including spectacular and momentous hype: “Made in Cuba presents Rick Wakeman with his band The New English Rock Ensemble performing to a capacity crowd at the Karl Marx Theatre in Havana, Cuba. In April 2005, invited by the Ministry of Culture, the Cuban Music Institute, and the Swiss foundation Association Friends of Cuba, rock keyboard legend Rick Wakeman traveled to Havana to perform a series of concerts that will forever be recognized internationally as an enormous event for the Cuban people, and a historic moment as one of the first and largest official rock concerts ever to be performed on the island. This DVD captures the spectacular performance and the momentous event which will undoubtedly be worthy of an entry in the chronicles of rock music history. Wakeman devoted most of the concert to classic tunes from the 1970s, including songs from his The Six Wives of Henry VIII, Journey to the Centre of the Earth, and King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table albums, plus a more recent stage favorite from the Out There album called Cathedral of the Sky and the Yes classics Starship Trooper and Wurm.” The main feature runs 115 minutes and features both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 surround as well as Dolby Digital stereo audio. Extras include The Road to Cuba, a 28-minute documentary capturing behind-the-scenes action of Rick’s visit to Cuba, plus a photo gallery.
