Hi,

Not voting ... I think the epics are what defines this band, not necessarily the hit songs, but in reality, both come together, not separate.

Pass on choice ... too many of them!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

pfff.. that 'sound' couldn't have been anything associated with 'moog'.  damnit man.  It HAD to have been a Casio keyboard Angry It sure as hell sounded like one you  could get from Radio Shack LOL

Well Wakeman had invested in the Birotron. Some of the other guys were promoting their gadgets on Tormato--they were all the best and inventors wanted them to use their new technology. If you look up Birotron in Wkipedia it is facinating to see the history of this very rare instrument Smile

I was listening to a live version of Yours Is No Disgrace yesterday and was enjoying the completely mad guitars solos. They really are totally nuts and yet so perfect.

i'm leaning toward On the Silent Wings of Freedom, as I haven't heard it anywhere near as much as the rest, but i'd probably have to go with Yours is No Disgrace of those listed.

Have they played Wings on any live albums? I can't recall seeing it listed.

Heart of the Sunrise is my favourite.  Surprised to see it's so far in front though tbh.

To be honest, I never got into HOTS, nor Fragile. It's merely a 4, maybe even a 3 1/2 star album.

yeah.. but unlike the rest of the album, this song was damn near as good as anything they did previously or afterward. Everything about it rules, more well enough to cover the unfortunate choice of keyboard sounds. LOL

That said, it still does SORT of grow on you.   No qualms at all with choosing that as favorite of the group. Strong a group of choices as it is.  Quite well could be considered not only Squire's finest moment, but I'd be hard pressed to find anything better that Jon did. His voice just soared and obviously was very attuned to the overall vibe and the music.  I thought the song itself held together quite well, furious intro, sort of a step back, then the Casio solo, then the band reenters and lays waste.  As close to perfect as one could hope to get, and would have been with a different sound from Wakeman.
