    Still my fav INXS tune...love how it slowly and gradually builds into imaginative guitar licks and drums that make you wanna move...poignant lyrics too.

    ...Incredibly under-rated band...Michael Hutchence left us way too young...yet another Rock and Roll casualty.

    Mama told me not to come (that's not the way to have fun, son)
    They were my first concert in Jr high school at the local armory where they had great shows...saw them, Mountain and Iron Butterfly, Steppenwolf and Sam Sham and the Pharoahs at that place as a kid....3 dog night was an underrated band, they were really talented.

    Fragile and (weirdly) TFTO are my two all-time Yes records, with The Yes Album, CTTE, and Drama very close behind.

    Nice to see Yes fans here. They were my favorite band when I was in high school. I went to many of their shows.

    That was a serious stoner album..TFTO...I saw them 3 times in concert and Rick Wakeman's solo tour of the wives of Henry the XIII with David Hemmings narrating. Last Yes concert I saw was at the Palace of Fine Arts in SF and Donovan opened for them...one of the greatest nights ever.

    It suits the Roger Dean cover art, which was also awesome to look at when you separated the stems and seeds.

    their late 90s era was great for live shows (even if their studio stuff was middling)… I wish I could have been at the San Luis Obispo shows they recorded for Keys To Ascension… the Awaken they played then was transcendental

    Most of the shows I went to were in the 70’s and early 80’s. I just loved Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, and Alan White.

    Wild, I thought you and I were the same age for some reason. By the time I got exposed to Yes it was already ‘95 so I kind of missed the boat on seeing them live

    Yes was my fathers favorite band of all time.

    I wouldn’t be named Jon if it weren’t for Jon Anderson.

    I have some of his Roger Dean art hanging on my bedroom walls. I also have his painting done and signed by Jon Anderson. It’s a vase of flowers.
