Hi,
I'm glad to hear of this ... I just hope that he can do real music and let go of the pop song routine ... I kinda think that he needs to go to Greece and spend a few months with Vangelis. ... and when you think about it, he's probably better suited for Mike Oldfield ...
Forget YES ... it's over!

I love the work he did with both Oldfield & Vangelis, and I hope he does more with both. But Moshkito, I really hope that you are wrong about Yes. I think they have one great album left in them as a successor to Magnification, and it would HAVE to be with JA. ------------- Enhance your life.

Indeed, great news. As I said in few previous posts, I like his vocal. Even on 1999 album The Ladder, Homeworld was true epic tale. He has proven that his voice still sounds good afterr so many years. His health problems last year were bad thing. Really bad, because in this late age, these problems aren't good for singer of such class.
We shall see how things will be. I can just hope for the best. ------------- There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless," -Andyman1125 on Lulu  Even my |

Brilliant news I saw & heard the Jonster a few years back on the Ladder tour and for his age his voice sounded pristine...maybe the rest will have given him fresh incentive to get the great Yes songs up and out again, ------------- 'I Know What I Like' and it's good music, well written and delivered with passion!! |
