The Mountain that inspired Rick Wakeman!!

Rick Wakeman when visited Rio he was inspired him to do the music called Pedra da Gavea , which is in the LP Rapsodies (1979).
Pedra da Gavea is a fantastic mountain involved full of mysteries and old civilizations (Phoenicians)
Reminding a sphinx,the head of an old beard man and a cat body is placed to 845 meters of height.
The landscape there of the top is wonderful !
I recommend you three sites .
- www.viewzone.com/gavea.html
- www.almacarioca.com.br/hist02.htm
- www.phoenicia.org/brazil.html
Know and appreciate this wonderful place.
