Metal Mind Productions presents the first live DVD release of Oliver Wakeman, the oldest son of Rick Wakeman (Yes), one of the best keyboard players in the history of progressive rock.

Oliver Wakeman is a great prog-rock musician known for his many artistic collaborations, including the one with Clive Nolan (Pendragon, Arena, Neo, Caamora), which resulted in the creation of two genuine masterpieces of the genre: ?Jabberwocky? and ?The Hound of the Baskervilles?. Oliver Wakeman already has a cult status in the progressive rock community. He was acclaimed both as a solo artist and as part of various musical projects by fans and by critics (in January 2008 Oliver was presented with the Classic Rock Societies Keyboard Player of the the Year award!). His latest studio project ? album entitled ?Mother?s Ruin? from 2005 - marks a progression in Wakeman?s musical career. The album sees a change in direction from Oliver?s recent instrumental releases and draws heavily both from his progressive roots and also the experience performing live with his band. It?s a collection of hard-edged yet melodic songs, showcasing Wakeman?s writing skills. The album also allows room for the dynamic instrumentation which has become a trademark of his work.

In mid March Yes confirmed their world-wide tour with Oliver Wakeman taking the position of the keyboardist.

?Coming To Town ? Live in Katowice? DVD is an extraordinary mixture of progressive and symphonic rock, spiced up with intriguing sounds, performed live with both charisma and perfection! This wonderful show was filmed at an atmospheric venue of Wyspiański Theater in Poland. The band performed in the following line-up: Oliver Wakeman (keyboards, piano), Paul Manzi (vocals), David Mark Pearce (guitar), Paul Brown (bass) and Dave Wagstaffe (drums). The DVD includes an interview with Oliver Wakeman, photo gallery, biography, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound and more!

DVD is also available in a limited swing case edition, including a bonus audio CD with songs recorded during the gig at the theater.

?Coming To Town ? Live in Katowice? DVD will be available on 5th May 2008 in Europe and 10th June 2008 in USA (via MVD)
