Listener comments!
9:03am : Happy Birthday USA !9:06am : Welcome to the birthday party! Thanks bb! :)9:08am : Good morning! Lovin' this Banana stuff and Dillard and Clark!!9:10am : Morning All!9:10am : This Dillard & Clark reminds me of Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris.9:12am : Morning Bobert!9:14am : Happy Fourth, Bob and everyone. Kicking the show off with a nicely appropriate Americana feel. But I've also been curious to hear if Bob will have any reflections to offer on the occasion of bassist Chris Squire's passing.9:16am : No more rain, please, even if it is pennies.9:19am : Clay Pigeon played some Yes in the second half of his show the other night. www.wfmu.org...9:22am : Wow! Between the Buttons tune9:26am : Nice pile of Rolling Stones right here.9:28am : Sorry to be *that* person, but what advert was this used on?9:29am : My favorite Nicky Hopkins song.9:30am : Oh crikey! It was this one... no wonder I remembered it.. I helped make some of the bunnies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLUAbkRUvVQ9:34am : Cool, Calm & Collected?9:36am : Didn't Brian Jones play oboe on Dandelion? Pretty sure The Beatles had him play oboe on at least one of their tunes too.9:38am : According to a Lennon interview, Brian Jones played sax on "You know My Name (Look Up the Number)."9:44am : I always thought Yes must've really dug the first C,S&N LP. Similar vocal harmonizing.9:53am : True dat Jim D.9:55am : Makes sense William. I think ~everybody~ was blown away by the CSN(&Y) sound. Obviosly they were fans of the "father bands" Byrds/Springfield/Hollies9:58am : Early Byrd and Yes fan, but never heard the very first Yes album, found them with Starship Trooper... Byrds cover... Thanks, Bob...9:59am : Squire (who had been a kind of "all-star" choir boy in his youth) and Yes lead singer Jon Anderson were both madly in love with that "California" vocal harmony style, from the Beach Boys to the SF folk rockers. Guitarist Stev Howe told me once that fans never guessed that the band which had been the huge-est inspiration to Yes was the Byrds...10:00am : Happy 4th, Bob!10:00am : Jon Anderson has cited CSN as an influence. You can really hear it on "Yours Is No Disgrace."10:00am : Agreed Bob. You were spot on in with opinions on Yes.10:02am : Well, I think I'll take a chance on the rain holding off for a while and check out the parade in town. Will bring umbrellas, of course. Enjoy the day!10:09am : Saw one of their early seventies shows with wake an, buford, etc. Steve Howe had a merry go round guitar rack that he spun mid song for different guitar sounds and effect...10:12am : Any cut in a Yes song is making it too short. Also, Peter Banks was still there for Time And A Word. Howe joined after it was recorded, before it was released10:14am : Banks is on Time and a Word, The Yes Album is Howe's first.10:28am : A brilliant blend of music, Bob,
That first set was perfect for the Fourth of July. Deep roots of this country's music, founding fathers.
And now, an hour later, we hear a kazoo and some chicken pickin' guitar.10:30am : You are correct sir Moe. But isn't that Howe on the cover? That's what I went by. Banks is credited on the back.
Thanks for correction.10:30am : The Intro to this awesome Kinks tune had shades of Blind Faith...10:36am : Credit goes to monstrositor10:37am : Ok, thanks monstrositor.10:42am : Thanks, Moe, and you're welcome,Bob. Atlantic in the US didn't approve of the original artwork for TAAW, so they just slapped the most recent photo of the group on the front, which had Steve Howe.10:46am : Love this Utopia track!10:46am : Now we're talkin'...10:49am : and thank you for the in depth background on Yes...10:50am : Another fine show today, BobB!10:50am : Is it just me, or is Bob, in recent weeks, playing more straight blues than he normally does?10:50am : ooohhh, this sounds like Emmitt Rhodes!10:54am : could never understand Buford saying he left Yes for Crimson for more money, saw the Buford Crimson and they were playing smaller halls than Yes, who were playing MSG size venues...10:56am : Stuart I ~think~ I am!10:57am : nice show Bob!10:58am : Thanks, Bob!10:59am : Unless he was just a salaried member...11:00am : Thanks for the show bob...
