one of the most successful solo artists in music history, having a
career that is approaching its fifth decade. His piano-based sound
has helped keep that instrument relevant in a guitar-oriented
genre. He began playing piano when he was four. Something of a
child prodigy, he was able to play on piano any melody he heard
on radio or phonograph. At age 11, he won a scholarship to the
Royal Academy of Music. He stayed at the Academy for six years,
leaving before graduation to start a musical career.*
