      Well, the only thing where it's really boring is I was used to sing my guitar solos at the same time I was improvising 'em... It was also sometimes funny, e.g. the young guitarist that got me the ticket for the Satriani's concert thought I didn't knew Satch's stuff... He was stunned when I sang Surfing the Alien and Satch Boogie in his ear at the same time Joe was playing it...
      But, as a singer, my former very high head voice was simply REALLY HORRIBLE, even according to black metal's "standards"🤣🤣🤣🤣 (which I do not condone! My views on any cult are rather similar to Frank Zappa's or Lemmy's)...
      The good sides are :
      - my voice deepened and this was greatly appreciated by women...
      - I could already growl with a voice between Gene Simons and Lemmy, now I can really go lyrical with classical baryton voice and even a bit lower, e.g. a very good portion of Barry White, as long as he's not showing how low he can go on some rare occasions... The only time I could get that low were times of serious flu or bronchitis 🤣🤣🤣🤣
      _" Then, I joined the Army and got hit with gas, during a NBC training session that went haywire, changed my voice."_
      Ah, I dodged the draft (we still had drafting in the early 90's) : thanks to a mixture of clomipramine, maprotiline, clobazam, lorazepam, alprazolam, alcohol, codeine, pseudoephedrine, vitamins and some "phytotherapy", I even didn't washed for 3 weeks and had old clothes in the trash-can for a week in order to look and smell like a tramp.So, I led them into understanding they'd better be off with me, I'm one of the very few having ever been told : "we don't want people of your kind in the military". Some hi-school buddies that were here at the same time told me about the militaries chatting about me and they never had seen someone like this. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 C'mon, hippies are way too dangerous for the military! A single hippie can screw a full regiment without any weapon. Imagine a hippie in an ICBM silo : "Oh, what's this nice big red button? Must be the "ON" button for the HiFi!
      Well, I just hope you didn't ended with Mark W. Shelton's voice (listen to Manilla Road's _Witches Brew_ LP version) or I pity you kids when you read 'em stories before they sleep, they will be freaking afraid and won't sleep at all...

Three or four long white limos running, waiting to whisk the band away to safety. Ran up to the 1st or 2nd limo in the line... came face to face with Chris Squire... I was knock-knock-knocking on that window: "Roll down the window man! Roll down the window!!" He just turned, gave me a big grin, & a big thumbs up! The window didn't open, & the garage door did...

The fact that they continue to play with such energy and attention to every detail after 50 years is astounding. Stever Howe has to be one of the finest guitar players of all time. Technical brilliance. Jon Anderson sings as well in his 70's as he did as a thirty something. Wakeman - what can you say - outstanding. Rabin slotted in like he had always been there playing alongside Howe. Geddy filled some very big boots and did so perfectly. And as ever, not a single beat missed by Mr White. My late partner treated me to Andersen, Rabin and Wakeman in Nottingham just a few months before cancer took her away. What a night but this tops it.

    Greetings from Brazil!
    This is a real art and no matter age, but classics never get old. This is a big shut up for all the fake artists nowdays. Make noise and all respects for Yes!

    Geddy Lee is the perfect stand in for this iconic piece. Some really great moments with him and Wakeman lighting the stage on fire.

    "Original audio suffered from low volume and severe data compression artifacts which I could not remove completely" - you did an amazing job, looks and sounds great! I have been in love with this band for the last 40 or so years, and so good to see Geddy with them, an amazing and absolutely fitting tribute to Chris in every way
