Could anyone tell me where Rick Wakeman of YES got his inspiration for the keyboard and synthesizer part on Wonderous Stories?

Pieces of the puzzle

 

Well, I did some searching, and found something on http://www.scaruffi.com/music.html. The History of YES did mention, "Wakeman returned to YES for Going for the one (1977) that contains Turn of the Century, Wonderous Stories, and the 15-minute Awaken. So far so good. Maybe Rolling Stone Magazine's archive has more? Interviews done back in the late 70's? Any Suggestions???
