He did have a beautiful voice, it still has power, but maybe lost the tenderness, even the likes of Robert Plant have lost their voice though can still sing. I loved the version of I Talk to the Wind, but I've always liked that song.

Well, Gilmour still could sing very beautifully on his last tour a few years ago, though surely he's lost some power (not that he was ever a particularly powerful singer). Jon Anderson could still sing perfectly well by 2000, but on the last DVD his voice already sounded just a bit rougher. Ofcourse after his hospitalization who knows what's happened to his voice.

I saw footage of Jon Anderson performing on another site, I don't know how recent the performance was, but his voice was amazing.
He is eager to get back out there; http://www.planetrock.com/Article.asp?id=1766560&spid=35830

Well, the news are not as exciting as the ones I had heard, and now I fear they may not come to pass, that Wakeman and Anderson were goint to tour and record an album with Trevor Rabin and some other yes related man. However, we are getting way off topic (there's a thread about this project).

So, they are planning to tour the US again next year with these intimate shows, and are going to see how the High Voltage gig goes, but are not ruling out touring/working as ELP again. The High Voltage gig will be filmed and released as a dvd/cd. Looks likely to be a cd of the intimate gigs coming up at some point.
