New Yes Album: Fly From Here.
Posted: Tue Jun 12, 2012 11:41 pm
Just purchased the latest Yes album:
"Fly From Here".
It's quite a quaint & decent piece of work ~ new singer ~ Benoit David from Quebec. Great thing is he doesn't really sound like Jon Anderson but he does have a beautiful voice. I miss Jon Anderson but some things change, I suppose. The Buggles (Video Killed The Radio Star) are back involved. Originally there was Oliver Wakeman (Rick's kid) on keyboards but he got the sack (like his dad) and Geoff Downes took over (remember Drama?). Trevor Horn is the producer.
Reaction from Jon Anderson
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Anderson stated that on hearing the single "We Can Fly" he felt it sounded "a bit dated" and that Horn's production "wasn't as good as I expected". He did, however, praise David's vocal performance.
