Doerfler Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Great Sunday morning read. Thanks for posting. I am a huge fan, saw him solo twice last year, and with Yes in the 1970's. Hope I can see him again someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KuruPrionz Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 That is awesome, thanks for sharing!!! I did see him with Yes twice, the whole band was fantastic. Live much better than the records.

GRollins Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Vanity Fair? Whoa. Never saw that one coming. Still, good read. I'd have been happy to have him bunk with me during his homeless days. That'd have been loads of fun. Grey Quote I'm not interested in someone's ability to program. I'm interested in their ability to compose and play.

Markyboard Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Those stories are captured in his Grumpy Old Rock Star book iirc. Or maybe it was Further Adventures of a G.O.R.S. Both are really fun reads- highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
