Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there. One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you.
I had this song on my 8-track set
“Superstars of the 70’s”
Ordered it off the TV phone number about 1973

Progressive rock music star - and independent candidate for President in 1980. Got 6% of the vote!
What a career!

I voted for him in 1980.
Should have voted for Reagan.

RIP Chris Squire.
When Rush announced Yes’s induction into the R&R Hall of Fame, Geddy Lee played bass with Yes, and played Chris’s bass part perfectly, as very few bassists could.
I loved Yes growing up.

One of more favorite things of late has been watching on youtube younger generations react to music of the 70’s and 80’s. And one of my favorites is watching their heads explode as they listen to Yes’s “Roundabout”.
It starts as incredulity and ends in them being speechless at the sonic tapestry of it all. Happy birthday Mr. Anderson, and thanks again for the music.

Another fan here! (YES and Prog Rock in general)— DH went to Jon’s concert a month or so ago, he still has his voice, great setlist, super memories.

I listened to Chris Squire’s isolated bass track on Roundabout, totally blew me away.

It’s definitely a tour de force for bass playing.

Close to the Edge is just out of this world. Absolute masterpiece. I don't think either Yes nor anyone else ever topped it.
