When things / people get too far up there own arses silly things happen (look at Marco and AoS for example). Prog got too far up its own arse. (human)Nature always comes along to give a yin to the yang.

Now older and somewhat milder in my preconceptions I am widening my vision to include discs that I would have cursed, mocked and burnt on a raging pyre while (preferably) naked virgins danced around it. Under this category falls the oft-maligned genre known as easy-listening, Geritol-AORPwog.

Fret: oldage brings liquification of the vitreous and brain. Hence it is common to open oneself more to the poppification of YES and Howe.

I will ask The Deacon to pray for you.

The current version of Yes with Rabin is better than the one with Howe! Something to do with Wakeman and Anderson?

There are 2 Yes formations active at the moment; Howe's band with Alan White (supported by Howe's son Dylan on tour), Geoff Downes, Billy Sherwood and Jon Davidson. This outfit is touring in 2019 with Tony Kaye as guest.

Then there is the "Yes featuring Anderson, Wakeman, Rabin" group who are also apparently still operative having released one live album so far.

You all are gathering ranks now, ehh?

"For they have consulted together with one consent; they are confederate against thee."

Well, understand this:

Blind Childe never was out to convert youse. Blind Child is fully cognizant of wot it is to deal with the DOUBLY-BLIGHTED Progless AND Audiofool.

Blind Chile may be blind, but him ain't blinkered.





Blind Child reviews shit horror films here. You should have noted by now that Blind Child does not review Prog. He knows better. Pearls beefwhore swine, loikes.

I yam not disappointed wif youse fuckchuckles.
Its not vain expectation, since there was no expectation in the first place.

I KNOW this audience and its grade-school notions of taste in music.

Blind Chile is not going to indulge in a game of attempted rebuttal and exposition/easy-going enlightenment and example . That is all too fruitless a pastime . Monkeys will always play one false.


Blind Chile is just here to make audiofools look....unfulfilled.
