Wakeman Levin and Paice?


There could be soon another progressive rock supergroup unleashed upon us. Featuring former members of Yes King Crimson and Deep Purple,  keyboard wizard Rick Wakeman, virtuoso bassist Tony Levin and hard rock legend Ian Paice on drums.  Rick of course has worked with Levin before with ABWH and a fine album that was too.


Rick reports on his website that negations are still under way but that it's looking promising.
Here's hoping as that's one hell of a line up and it will be interesting to hear the results. Read more over at Ricks great blog.
