Also, not as technically pure a voice but a nicer tone and far more emotion in Fish's singing.

Wait till the Yes fanboys put in their usual bloc votes, though. Fish will soon fall far behind.

Yes fan boys!! What trite.Anderson was a focal point of the greatest prog/rock band ever and as much as I love Fish the comparison is plain stupid.I agree Fish's lyrics are at times simply superb but before the man lost his way to his mother earth shennanigans his lyrics to 78 were amazing.Anderson's voice has more emotion than any other singer and his voice whilst not the best that is Hammill, Jon's sounds the best just

I like Anderson`s vocal style better, but as a lyric writer Fish is much better in my opinion.
If anyone knows where I can get a copy of some Flute and Voice (Indo-Prog/Raga Rock) albums please PM me! Many thanks!
