sure it will sound better than my other fav band Yes sounds---but that is not saying much---Tony Banks the real fans want to see Hackett with you (And less likely Peter) to make any reunion...
ATTWT has some great songs on it that would have been amazing songs with Hackett artistry on it---Burning Rope for example---Duke is a wonderful album and think the suite should have been arranged as...
for Howe White Squire's heirs Yes means a continuation of making money---especially I assume for Squire's heirs who need a source of income now that Chris has passed away---there is a newish wife and...
RIP---these 2 guys were genius---made original great music----created a new sound---true artists.
I think Jon Anderson should make the same demand of "Yes" and Howe should make the same demand of "ARW"X)
what happened to Howes son?
Yes CTTE
Genesis Selling England
Joni Mitchell Blue
Laura Nyro NY Tenderbery
CSNY
good list ---not into Peter Hamill but all in all good and a much deserved compliment for the team of Squire and White---they really did groove and White gets not enough credit especially for---Tales...
yes I agree---I was saying I don't think he or Gadd should be on this list.
agree with the list---in so much that you can agree with any list---with exception of Steve Gadd---think his drumming has more swing than Perth---not sure about Charlie Watts either
I liked all of the ABWH songs on Union---interesting stuff ---way better than the yes west stuff.
Nice--but which one is Tony?:rofl
I don't know the show because I never watch fox---the comedy channel is a lot funnier and truthful.
was great he had a moment to shine late in his life with his great performance in Ed Wood---never too late---RIP
I'm pretty sure Moraz does not agree with Jon's memory---Moraz believes he was secretly given the boot once a behind the scenes deal to get Rick back was worked out---I know Steve once said Moraz's...
it's a great interview----Alec is a huge classic Yes fan---he loves Tales---now that's a real Yes fan----and the chemistry is fantastic and Jon has never sounded better---and Alec knows what to ask.
for this year ---The Gates Of Delirium---Yes
I think a lot of things were happening to Rick---he was drinking and his ego was soaring due to his individual success---I saw the concert----the last keyboard interlude went on forever as he seemed...
Radiohead has a certain X factor that gets your attention as this sounds interesting---like good art---this is good but I don;t love it---but thats about it for me---although I have some of their...
been listening to Low Sparks recently having heard live version on local upstate radio---love the song and glad someone posted it---some consider Traffic prog some don't---the electric horn solo is...
agree they are both essential----love Focus---4 first rate musicians---Melody Maker polls were legendary and Howe would win best guitarist most of the time (sometimes Clapton or Page) but the year...
Near------far----where ever you are------------
well I don't like Kansas or Celine but I have found if you turn someone on to progish music---if they know anything about music or are...
heard a song on Facebook just now---didn't do much for me

there are a lot of songs especially jazz standards by Ella---but how about this one:lol
Brilliant article---especially since he notes the great genius of Yes in the 70's and Genesis---only thing I disagree with is that Gentle Giant didn't have a good singer---I think their singers are...
most of the gifted young kids are attracted to the great classic Yes. Or Genesis or KC etc
good to know they know great interesting music when they hear it
another silly list---other than the Rush album and Supertramp and perhaps Barcley James---the other albums are full blown progressive rock in every way---even thought I love half of them and loath...
Like the idea a lot---always was a big fan of Christine---thought she's never come out of retirement.
Like the reality show Big Brother :the Yes version---where all members share a big house for the summer---riveting. Lol Just kidding --carry on.
there are a lot of 66 year olds I know who are just fine with lots of energy and vitality---plus frank sinatra sounded great into his 70's ---so whatever he has been thru --and back surgery doesn't...
feel really bad for him---I'm a fan of his voice and drumming is one of the best----I saw excerpts from his first concert this week and his voice was ok in parts and sad but off key and weak in other...
RIP loved Wallace and Gromit---great to see he topped his career off with a legendary role---he was in his 90's.
I showed Phil Collins around my city neighborhood 20 years ago---at the peak of his popularity----he wasn't a jerk per se but he was a grouchy miserable guy---and still is. New concert tapes from the...
Selling England by the Pound---Genesis
Peter Gabriel --Car
CSN-
it certainly is more prog and better prog than some of the bands labeled prog on here---like the boring Toto Styx Circa etc.
why didn't Payne just replace Wetton now that he died---not that I care---but anyone is better than sherwood lol
Yeah love the sign---important to speak the truth which is pretty obvious. In every sense of the word crazy man trump is a money grubbing pussy grabbing pig. Roger sounded great on Colbert---I'd go...
yeah he cheese's up everything he touches in those leather pants of his----I won't see either---I'm really disgusted JA has been all over the place in his life with what is and what is not Yes. And...
neither is a proper Yes---there's a hole in my heart when I look at both lineups---so I will pass on both----unless I get free tickets as someone already said--Howe and Anderson are Yes and they are...
thick as a Brick is their best---my problem with the band is the sameness of sound on all their albums---
I likes them and appreciated them---some say suicide but seems hard to believe---heart attack or something like that seems more realistic---he seemed to be happy back on the road
Dark prog is not my fav----enough darkness in the world----sort of like uplifting music----be it prog or jazz my two fav genres.
I do own and listen to great dark prog like Wilson and King Crimson...
the Lamb is a big surreal dream about the coming of age----puberty---aggression---the end of childhood innocents---sexuality---the id ---the ego----all done with a heavy dose of humor and...
I think ABWH songs on Union are way better and far more interesting and prog than anything yes west came up with.
So true. I know in his heart he'd rather be playing with Howe.
ABWH had a lot of potential until money grubbing record labels wanted to drag rabin back in because he was the 80's hit maker----tragic----Bruford has said so and he was keen on another album and...
great interview from one of the best---thanks
I don't want to like Roger as he says a lot of stupid things and is a bit arrogant for my taste---but his performance on Colbert was impressive for a 70 year old who has been around forever----better...
I like enough to buy but buy all his stuff anyway---sounds like a continuation of what he is doing. Wish he wasn't so depressed all the time! Lol
Also thought Roger Waters on Colbert last night was...
Having a home in upstate NY ---IPA's everywhere---Kingston area has some great ones---but I'm not a Beer Snob but I am a prog snob.;)
Saw it---there are a lot of original songs---it's an okay film---not amazing at all----like some want to say---just okay---it's an expectations game. You hear all the hype and you think ---wow this...
Howe's Yes can't pull this off anymore than they can pull off any great Yes---it all drags and is not played with self-confidence---Now if they got a good bass player like Beggs---a drummer to help...
Have a lot---but Mad Man Moon is one of them.
I think they all need to go into group therapy.
Nobody does Rick better than Rick---amazing and original----Breslin is next, should have been in Yes---he does Rick very well and sort of puts in a little of what Moraz did---the other two don't move...
SO sad---one of my top 10 fav guitar players---so original----and his teaming up with Bruford was pure artistry. RIP
Maybe its not true but I believe that if Hackett had found a great singer years ago to sing his songs---he would be way bigger than he is----he writes beautiful melodies but his voice can't deliver...
Have to say a lot of Downes take on the event were spot on---especially his perfect take on rabin and wakeman---neither Yes has gravitas at this point ---the whole is equal to the sum of it's parts...
Didn't catch on because it's not very good. Lot's of mediocre bands sound like this. And it certainly isn't prog Sherwood never did prog. But enjoy.
Nah--the people up there were the one's who should have been up there----and who better to play bass then the amazing Getty Lee----who said he played music differently after hearing Squire play---
