Formed by YES-members Peter BANKS on guitar and Tony KAYE on keyboards, FLASH are completed by guitarist-bass player Ray BENNETT (GUN), drummer Mike HOUGH and vocalist Colin CARTER. The BANKS/KAYE partnership was to last only one album, though after which KAYE quit FLASH to form the "Christian-progressive" band BADGER. The group carried on as a four-piece. Now, the band performs a powerful and energetic Progressive rock with less keyboards parts. (should be Now, the band performs powerful and energetic progressive rock with more guitar and less keyboards than their first album)

They released three albums with a sound much like early YES. The first FLASH album, a self-titled one, is a great piece of 70s style prog rock, featuring long compositions, thick bass, twisty guitar, keyboard flash (hmmmmm), and complex YES-like arrangements. GREAT STUFF FOR ALL FANS OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK! "In The Can", released the same year, revolves around BANK's guitar with a more guitar-dominant sound (should be BANKS' guitar with a more dominant guitar sound). Compared to the two first albums, "Out Of Our Hands" is the last and least good of the FLASH albums (should be Last of three FLASH albums). There is also a live FLASH album called "Psychosynch" (should be Psychosync, recorded at the Biscuit Flower Hour). 
 
(new addition) FLASH is planning on releasing a new album around Q4 of 2009 or Q1 of 2010. The line-up will feature long-time members Colin CARTER and Ray BENNETT, with BENNETT moving to guitar, and new band members replacing ex-drummer Mike HOUGH and ex-guitarist Peter BANKS.

Maybe like this (without a comma after "Now"):
"Now the band performs powerful and energetic progressive rock with more guitar and less keyboards than on their first album."?

Thanks, done.


Though I changed your text a little, now it is:

"Formed by YES-members Peter BANKS on guitar and Tony KAYE on keyboards, FLASH are completed by guitarist-bass player Ray BENNETT (GUN), drummer Mike HOUGH and vocalist Colin CARTER. The BANKS/KAYE partnership was to last only one album, though after which KAYE quit FLASH to form the "Christian-progressive" band BADGER. The group carried on as a four-piece.

GREAT STUFF FOR ALL FANS OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK! "In The Can", released the same year, revolves around BANKS' guitar with a more dominant guitar sound. "Out Of Our Hands" is the last FLASH studio album and least good in comparison to its predecessors. There is also a live FLASH album called "Psychosync", it makes a nice addition to the collection. THAT ONE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

FLASH are planning to release a new album around Q4 of 2009 or Q1 of 2010. The line-up will feature long-time members Colin CARTER and Ray BENNETT, with BENNETT moving to guitar, and new band members replacing ex-drummer Mike HOUGH and ex-guitarist Peter BANKS."


Is it OK?

I did not include the words "recorded at the King Biscuit Flower Hour", because the sources I've found tell me "Psychosync" album was released by Blueprint label.

I added the new members' names.
