BLACK SABBATH Touring Keyboardist Provides Musical Score For 'Rifleman Harris' Audio Book

February 17, 2009

Adam Wakeman, the touring keyboardist for BLACK SABBATH and Ozzy Osbourne's band, has provided the musical score for "Recollections of Rifleman Harris", an audio book which has been skilfully abridged from an 1848 first edition of this famous historical memoir of a rifleman, from the 95th rifles, in the Napoleonic Wars.

This one-CD production is read by Jason Salkey, who played Harris in the Sharpe films, with sound FX provided by the 95th Rifles Re-Enactment Society.

A great deal of care and time has been spent creating an audio book which truly honors the rifleman of the Peninsula.

Sound samples and online secure ordering available at www.harrisaudiobook.com.

Adam is the son of longtime YES keyboardist Rick Wakeman.
