Jeff Wayne traces his steps back to his early years, inspired and guided by his musical father, through to the conception and completion of his musical interpretation of HG Wells’ science fiction novel. He reveals the production recipe behind ‘The War of the Worlds’ and an insight into working the ingredients of prog rock, classical and literary influences to produce a true classic, featuring The Moody Blues’ Justin Hayward, Thin Lizzy’s Phil Lynott, David Essex and the spell-binding narration of Richard Burton. Is it any wonder why this album garnered two prestigious Ivor Novello Awards and was voted the Best US Recording in Science Fiction voted by none-other-than Alfred Hitchcock, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg? This simply epic production is well and truly ‘Alive on Stage’ in a multi-media show featuring an internationally renowned cast touring the globe. Thanks to Ben for the above info! |
