Title: Chris Squire tracks being played
Post by ProgMaster on 29^th Jun, 2015 at 9:58pm

All,

Due to the awful news that Chris Squire has passed away, I have queued a large selection of his music from Fish Out Of Water, Conspiracy, Squackett and of course Yes.

In his honour, I will be playing further blocks of his music throughout the course of this week.

Darran,

You are doing a STELLAR job in your Chris mix. Was absolutely devastated when I heard the news early Sunday morning Chicago time. I have had a 41 year bond with Yes, met Chris 10 times backstage, always sat "1st row-Squire" over the last 15 years of shows. Been to 57 shows in all. You hear of people golfing their age -- I guess, being 57, I have "Yessed" my age.

I have some comfort in knowing that I got yo witness him play all of Close to the Edge and Fragile the last time I saw him. 8-)

And sadness that I never will again. :'(

Thanks. Here's another one from 2012. Nothing made us happier than seeing the "Awaken bass" lined up for that night's show.

High vibration go on
To the sun,
oh let my heart dreaming
Past a mortal as me
Where can I be

Great to see you online, Jeff.

Thanks for sharing the photos - wonderful stuff !

I know personally how much of a Yes fan you are. In particular of Chris.

Continue to enjoy the regular programming with additional Chris for a few more days in his honour.
