    I’m one of only a handful of people to see and hear Jon sing the “sound like a signal from You” at Tait Towers in Lititz Pa. in 1989 July during the ABWH rehearsals. Rick Wakeman provided simple C major root chording with a choral/string patch; my wife and I almost passed out!! lol… just amazing and SUPER RARE. I am blessed not only to have witnessed this along with the several talks Jon and I had over a 5 day period, but also to have had my wife and one year old daughter with me. So many memories; gives me tears as I type. God bless Jon Anderson; “just another” one of Gods messengers 🙏

    I'm a very long time Yes fan, and I've all heard all of the whining about different band members over time, but I think Jon should re-record all of the Yes songs with this ensemble. They are tremendous; I thought only a few songs brought me to tears ( And you and I, Turn of the century, et al, but this is truly magnificent. He is, and always will be, Yes, though I miss Squire's voice and bass
