Bit of Trivia- did you know Wakeman played keyboards on Al Stewart's Orange?

Wakeman pops up everywhere. He plays piano on Bowie's Hunky Dory album, notably on "O You Pretty Things". So when Peter Noone decides to release a cover version as a single, who does he get for piano? Bowie, who didn't even pplay it on his own version. (Also, not Bowie's fault, but one of the worst interpretations of a cover ever. Utterly decaffeinated and souless).

This is a GREAT version of NIN's Reptile. Bauhaus's Peter Murphy does the vocals.
