Encounter with YES
Yes was a big influence on my music world. I was always fascinated by the mixture of styles, the richness of its music and the uniqueness of its concept. Based on this fascination, I work on versions of YES music on my own style. After twenty one years the album "Yesterday Is Tomorrow" was completed. The album was a major success, including the YES community, to the point that I was able to meet YES, and in particular the keyboard player: Rick Wakeman, and tell him how important his influence was in my music.
Chris Squire, Jon Anderson, Alan White, Rick Wakeman and Steve Howe
