Agreed, Ian! A phenomenal bassist, and one (two?) of my favorite groups of all time, whichever iteration of membership they played as, (especially seeing the "Union" tour with all of them playing on-stage at once)!
Wow that's cool i never got to see them live. Hope you enjoyed the video was not sure if anyone would play a 13 minute track but hey 13 minutes of bliss X
Well, sweetie, I hadn't watched the clip when I commented, but I just did, and have loved it every time I have viewed it in the past. My comment was simply made based on better than 3 decades of being a YES fan! (even in the years they'd split, although some YES "purists" may not agree, but I listened to both the "new crew" of YES with Chris and the ABWH members who could not use the "family name").
And, although I love all of their work from the beginning - "Yours is No Disgrace" included - perhaps the clip below is a better tribute to Chris Squire and his ability to make the bass guitar "sing" in leads and solos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDIAyS0heLI
