Rick is one of the most gifted keyboard players of his generation, as at home on stage at a rock concert as in the organ loft of a great cathedral. He is known now for his TV appearances on IGrumpy Old Men/I and ICountdown /Iand his hugely popular Saturday morning radio show on Planet Rock 500,000 tune in in the UK alone, and some say 10 million people listen world-wide. He presents television shows and writes hymns. And he is also one of our great raconteurs. IGrumpy Old Rock Star/I is a collection of never-before-told stories from his amazing life. From touring in a white van in the early sixties; to buying an American football team with the mafia; his drinking days - two bottles of vodka before lunch - and how he ended up with the earth from around Che Guevara's body in his shed, given to him by his old friend and IYes/I fan Fidel Castro. Much loved and admired, Rick will promote the length of the land on TV, radio and in print.
