I think Wakeman at times used a bespoke Mander Pipe Organ. There was a mention and picture of it in a Keyboard Magazine interview in the late 70s. Not sure if it was used on that tour.

I think the suite would have been: Behind the Lines, Duchess, Guide Vocal, Turn It On Again, Duke's Travels, and Duke's End. The other tracks are stand alone songs.
Someone posted the lyrics to The Ice Bridge online. In looking at the other song titles together with album title, I’m wondering if this is a concept album of some sort....
[QUOTE=bRETT;739673]The current ARW tour shirts do have the Dean logo on them-- Smaller than the new logo and it's on the bottom, but it's there. Anyone know how they managed that?

Barry Miles' "Fusion Is" album maybe?
You are correct. It was released in the early 1980s. I still have my vinyl copy of Bodast Featuring Steve Howe with the photo of the guy digging up the master tapes on the cover.
The 15+ minute Dodo suite can be heard on YouTube I believe.
Steel Mill, Green Eyed God? (not the Springsteen band) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtINblhERH4&list=RDxtINblhERH4
It's the brass tape frame.
The main theme that first comes in after the guitar intro and repeats later in the song.
I had a digital subscription that I didn't renew. I liked to read it on my phone, but they downgraded the app, which made it difficult to read. Can't even reorient the page any more. I've noticed...
Spock's Beard's Beware of Darkness cover: "Farts that linger" instead of "thoughts that linger." Seriously, it's almost like he did it on purpose.
Any thoughts on this new release?
Are those drumsticks? I always thought it was a guy water divining.[/QUOTE]
My mistake. I think you are right about them being divining rods.
I think that is the actual Yes Tor in the background, which is what Steve Howe wanted. They added the image of the guy with drum sticks (which may be what you are referring to) and Wakeman threw a...
This was my first Yes album, so I liked it and still do albeit to a much lesser extent. I think the key for me is hearing the album before listening to everything that came before. As far as the...
Really like this. Also Solstice: Sound and Shadows is a great follow up.
I think Neal Morse was in that band too.
Not a great album. Some good songs, but the vocals ruin the entire album for me. I thought I read somewhere that he had someone lined up to do the vocals, but he/she bailed.
From Steve Howe's facebook:
"It’s hard to imagine the future without Chris! I sense that he will be in our thoughts & minds for sometime. He was a one-off, larger than life human being, who brought...
Just ordered from the Band's website: €12 (VAT excluded) including shipping.
Both Acting Very Strange and the Fugitive were released after Steve Hacket did all the lead vocals on Cured in 1981. I always speculated that Mike and Tony wanted to show that they could do it too,...
The vocal performances sound "unusually" good on this, particulary Squire. Davison sounds very good too, but I'm not surprised about that.

Check it out. A mix of hip hop, prog, and free jazz.
Nostalgia.
Wil Morse, piano; Gabe Klein, drums; Asa Wiggins, bass; and Regina and Ann McCrary, background vocals,
Good guess as to Marillion though. I think Wilson is a fan.
Pink Floyd and that is it, but don't tell her some pepple consider it Prog. Took her to Yes, PT and Hackett, which were tolerated, but all that ended with Steven Wilson.
The Billboard 200 chart has H&E at 26.
I don't know if you were responding to my post. I was just trying to make the point you made through sarcasm. Sorry everyone.
That must be why H&E only gets three stars on Amazon U.S, but is now ranked number 7 for all music. Actually it just went to six passing KidzBop - that puts Yes squarely in the mainstream for the...
No wait, what about Hat of the Sunrise (with Boston accent)
I noticed a difference by just listening to the mp3 on the hi fi in my living room, as opposed to tiny earbuds plugged into an iPhone. I also think that there is a class of music that just doesn't...
Interesting publication. Thanks.
Which paper is this?
Armies of angels are starting to fall
Bathed in the light at the break of the dawn
Armies of angels are leading me on
Take me away from the heart of the storm
Take me away
Take me away
I don't know; what I've heard so far is okay, but it all seems like it was kind of rushed, which may be the case from what I've read. As far as Howe's playing on The Game is concerned, he messes up...
I guess this is off topic, but your post made me recall that when I used to play FFH in the car, my 4 year old would call it "boing boing" (not a typo). Not sure that's what Steve Howe had in mind.
I think someone once started a thread about samples, but wrote "camples" instead. The typo stuck.
By the way, when are we going to get a new post over at Topblographic Oceans. Did Yus management...
If I remember my high school art teacher's constant refrain correctly, causing the eye to move to different parts of a piece of art is part of the artist's goal. I have no idea what Dean was after...
That's not his point. The issue is whether Yes were looking for a drummer in the same vein. I think Alan got the gig in part because he was Eddie Offord's roommate.
I think it was Jon and Geoff (not Chris) who were unable to finish a "big prog piece."
Additional Tracks:
7. Clap (Studio Version)
8. A Venture (Extended)
I was hoping that they would give us an extended version of A Venture. I've always been curious to hear the guitar solo...
It's hard to compare the two. I will say that Hackett seems to have pushed himself to improve while Howe has said that he doesn't really "practice" per se. To me this shows in how they are playing...
Anyone read it yet?

Editorial from The Boston Globe on Yes and the Hall of Fame. Apologize if this has already...
One of my favorites from that era. I still have my copy of the LP. I recall finding it in the cabinets under the record bins at the Harvard Coop in the late 70's.
I always thought that guy was perfect for that album, but if his voice bothers people that much I guess they have a right to their opinions.
The Guy from Flash.
Take a look at the Rolling Stone "review" of Fly from Here. Sheffield wrote it. It's a bit of a rant, but it seems very possible that he's a closet fan of the classic lineup. ...
