You know you're not sure, because you probably havent listened to a whole Wakeman record, let alone ALL of them, not that i can blame you, his "everything including the kitchen sink" approach to music is difinetely a aqquired taste, but with as much body of work he has under his belt (Over 5 times more than Rudess) you're bound to find a musical piece of his that blows Rudess out of the water.
I haven't heard all his work but I've heard what's regarded as his best. And no, it didn't really come close to Rudess' best. The guy is in a class of his own.

And why is he such a wanted session player and why has he worked with so many well known musicians?... Because he has cool hair?... I dont think so.
Because he's in perhaps the most recognised prog band in the world?

Show me a link of Rudess doing the same thing, if you dont mind
I said he doesn't do it because he doesn't need to show off.
