So it was Owner of a Lonely Fart! LOL hahahaha. I love these guys and hope they continue to play!
-
I never thought in a million years I'd hear Jon Anderson say, "There's more to life than nookie".
-
The 3 are great together. What a line. I was really hoping that they would put out some original material after this tour, but I’m happy we got the amazing tour. They are all certainly legendary, but I can confidently say that Rick Wakeman is an absolute prodigy, anomaly, and next level legend at his craft. Thank you for the music fellas ….

Rick W. is so humble to recognize how important 90125 (AND Big Generator---that was a stellar pop record!) was, despite him not being on it. Tony Kaye did a wonderful job and served the purpose on that album, Big Gen, and Talk. Those were three fantastic additions to the catalog.

Jon is 73 years old. He looks awesome.

In 1983 we were hanging out at a campground in Newport News Va. - drinkin and sittin by the fire, just generally being crazy teenagers when my buddy said you gotta check out this album! He threw Fragile into the CASSETTE player (sparkomatic 100 watts😎) and we cranked it up! I was hooked 30 seconds into the first song. We partied all night and listened to the album multiple times. Within a week I had bought as many of their albums as I could find- no downloads in early 80s, you had to hit the record stores! Still to this day I listen to some of their songs and I'm like " how the f!@# did they come up with this stuff??!" Yes is truly an example of the whole being greater than the sum of the parts- each member so creative in their own right but coming together they transcend each other. I have listened to their albums HUNDREDS of times and IT NEVER GETS OLD. I feel sad for those people who have never heard, or dont appreciate their musical legacy.

Straight from Rick W. Trevor Rabin saved Yes.Seen ARW last year and it was outstanding absolutely outstanding!
-
Trevor is an outstanding guitar player and very little cited amongst the so called lengends
-
I was camping with some friends (no nookie!) on an island in the middle of the Susquehanna River and Patrick shows up with a portable 8-track player (they were heavy!) and he plays Fragile which starts with Roundabout. At the time I was a senior in high school and sang in 5 different choral groups including my church choir (all my love Chris!) and within 30 seconds music changed for me forever. Yes has been my favorite band since that moment. So lush and such rich soundscapes and so so very much depth in Jon's lyrics. God Bless you all forever :)

Wakeman could have been a stand up comedian, genuinely funny.
-
Rick's an infinite source of laughs. Jon's still the wee boy from the north of England who wanted to play football for his local team. Trevor gets more and more handsome through the years, he's an all-music person but he loves having a laugh himself too. Three human beings. May I say this is Yes' best line up ever? They got rid of all the tensions and the competitiveness and the mess of a sometimes 8-piece band, now it's only 'the best ones' who are on the road and I'm simply sad Chris can't be around having his share of laughs as well. :-*

This was the best Yes in years! Hope they pick it back up after the pandemic
-
Been a Yes fan since I first heard 'Hold On' on fm radio back around early '84. Then got a hold of the prog stuff and made me a fan for life! Long live Yes!!!👍
-
Gone from prog rock to prostate rock. Love these guys and their music.
-
"There's more to life than nookie." What a full-circle rock & roller Jon Anderson is.
-
Magnanimous of Rick to say 90215 was the most important YES album.
-
Rick cracks me up. His timing is impeccable! Love it! Wonderful! We need more interviews like this!
-
Wakeman could of been a stand up comedian in another lifetime, he’s hilarious every time I’ve heard him public speaking lol
-
Loved that Jon mentioned Zappa.
-
Perfect balance of intelligence and entertainment...!
