Needed to hear Chris Squire play this week.I know every note of the 70s Yes line ups forwards and backwards. Most of what they recorded between 90125 and Magnification has been a bit iffy. So I had to wander a little further afield for anything less familar. Interesting thing is how much of his trademark approach he abandoned from the 80s onwards. That familiar bass sound is kind of still there but the endless melodic, harmonic and rhythmic surprises of the 70s records are not. What he still had in abundance was a genius for arranging and singing vocal harmonies. Impossible to think of them continuing to play live with that double hole in their side. Though I am sure they will give it a good try!
