Still can’t believe that guy briefly replaced Jon Anderson in “Yes”.

But Drama wasn’t a half bad album.

If you like Jon Anderson, let me share with you one of my favorite Sola Jon efforts; Olias of Sunhillow, from about 1978. Very spacey, esoteric, something The Hobbits would sing during a gathering, if you will. My favorite three cuts are rather short, but I have never forgotten them. They are #1. Meeting (Garden of Geda), sort of a Gregorian chant with synthesizer and islander’s percussion. #2. Ocean; A very spare, elegant weaving melody, with lots of whole notes, leaves you satisfactorily transported. #3. Dance of Raynart; The first moments after a summer rain, ground still steaming, you hear harp string glissandos and clarinettes. Try it, you’ll like it!
