Thanks Jeffman,
i think i will update my crackly copy for a cd. I remenber him as a very sweet natured guy who looked a bit like Jeff Buckley (If my memory serves me well). He certainly entertained the folk music audience at the Beehive with his songwriting.

Fascinating stuff, Dylan. As for his whereabouts, he pens a short and rather cryptic essay in the booklet for the CD reissue, so I presume he’s still knocking about somewhere.

I met Bruce back in 1977 and he gave me a copy of his album Puritanical Odes. I still have the copy signed by him but it is so scratchy now. I used to play a few songs in the Beehive Pub in St albans on the folky night and Bruce sang there a few times.

It is a truly interesting Album. complex, beautiful guitar playing and almost operatic voice. I wonder where Bruce us now. anyone know?

I’ve just played Greg Lake’s pension plan at our regular acoustic music evening; that and Mud’s Lonely This Christmas. Have a good Crimbo. J

An excellent mix bringing back floods of memories of concerts long gone and vinyl I still have stacked in a spare room. Have an outstanding festive season.

Beyond Fragile, Close to the Edge and parts of the The Yes Album, I've very little time for them (the live Yessongs aside). I'm all for bloated, outrageous audacity, but in the case of Yes, it all too often came with an extra helping of dull.

Two sides to this coin – when Yes nicked the blueprint from 1-2-3 they forgot to include taste and restraint in the package. Even so, they still succeeded where the Scottish band failed, in that they produced a symphonic blend that at its best was even better than the originators, mainly because of the additional outstanding guitar and synths. The snag was it only came together properly on a few albums, the band took commercial success as a sign that they had carte blanche to do what they liked, and there,for want of a nail a kingdom was lost.

Thanks Nick, even though I missed the ‘o’ in ‘glorious’ – it was a typo, honest!

Very nicely put.

Indeed so, Laura. I know who I’d rather get stuck in an elevator with and it’s not the one that seems to think people calling him “god” is a substitute for a personality.
