Rock n' Roll Prophet is a 1982 album by Rick Wakeman. The album was recorded at Mountain Studios in Montreux, Switzerland, and was released by Moon Records. The album was re-released in 1991 by President Records as Rock 'n' Roll Prophet Plus, containing four bonus tracks. These tracks were recorded at Wakeman's own Bajanor Studios on the Isle of Man, and were mixed by Stuart Sawney. The re-release was mastered at Abbey Road Studios.

Recorded in 1979, this somewhat goofy album is an oddity in the Wakeman catalog. The music is mostly electro-pop, reminiscent in parts of the Buggles. Unusually, Wakeman actually sings, in a serviceable but not strong voice, on three tracks: "I'm So Straight I'm a Weirdo," "Maybe '80," and "Do You Believe in Fairies?"

Only for completionists (45%). This album exists in two different versions, the original version and a plus version. The plus version opens with an instrumental called Return Of The Prophet which is actually quite good. It reminds me of Statue Of Justice from Criminal Record and is clearly the best track from this otherwise weak album. Alpha Sleep, March Of The Child Soldiers and Stalemate are also not that bad, even if not particularly memorable. I have this album on vinyl as well as on mp3. The mp3 version of the original album has awful sound, probably a transfer from vinyl
