Leviton 61110 eXtreme 6+ QuickPort Connector, CAT 6

2007 reissue of this album by the keyboard whiz and Prog-Rock superstar. Originally released in 1995, this album is considered a true treasure in Rick Wakeman's vast catalogue and has been unavailable for some time. The music on this album is considered by many, including Rick Wakeman, to be some of the best he has ever written and recorded. The album's musical director is also a well known name to many Rick Wakeman fans: Rick's son Adam. The music contained on Cirque Surreal was actually performed live in Brighton for the circus for a week complete with band. Since then however the album has become a hard to find artifact. The album also features Rick's long time drummer Tony Fernandez and Fraser Thorneycroft-Smith on guitar and on some of the tracks Chrissie Hammond on vocals. 11 tracks. Music Fusion.
