Attended Topographic Oceans, Relayer and Union all top concerts.
Yes has had a lot of musicians performing under its band name over the years so far just Chris and Alan are gone I think but Anderson, Wakeman, Howe, Banks, Bruford are getting up there too
A collaborator of his, Rick Keller, has worked with him and a variety of other musicians.
I met Rick in the bar at Winstar after a Frankie Valli concert on NY Eve close to 10 years ago. I recognized several of the musicians from the concert, so I raised my glass to them, and said "Prosit Neu Jahr". Next thing I know, Rick starts rapping at me in German, kicking off a 90 minute gab fest. We still correspond infrequently on Linked In.
He lived in Germany for about 20 years, told me several great stories about performing in East Germany. I told a couple of stories about my 4 years in Germany with the Army.
He introduced me to his bandmates, and I mentioned that my son was a trumpet player in his middle school band. When I mentioned the school (Coppell), one of the vocalists said, "I know that program, it's one of the best in the nation!"
Rick's produced several albums, at least one which had Bill on drums.
