Re: Jon Anderson of the 70's group "YES"
Great music, I was brought up on YES. much better than other Prog Rock, up there with the Floyd. Awesome.

Spend as much time as I can trying to educate Morocco with Going for the one and the Yes Album......

Just found this, Eilands, think Jon might enjoy it.

I don't think "Yes" are a patch on "Pink Floyd" but I think "Find my Way Home" is a great Christmas record as it was released back in Dec 1981 - I think it snowed a lot that year.

Coincidence: It was on the weather forecast this evening that we are in for the longest cold spell since 1981! So what happened to Global Warming!
