His son Adam played for them live for some years (visible or not, I don’t know)…
I wouldve thought any decent keyboard player would have wanted to remain anonymous 😂
Mick was a really good bass player who certainly impressed me.
Fly Guitars - an excellent resource - did an interview with him which explains the genesis of this instrument.

Pretty sure Rick only played with them on one studio track and was paid in beer!
Can you really see the man who ate a curry in stage with Yes staying behind a curtain? I can’t!
This is truly a classic thread…
Stop me if I have told this one before… In 1980 I had a band modelled on the Pretenders, whom I had seen and fallen in love with. Our Chrissie was an Australian girl who ended up being deported I believe - anyway she left us looking for a replacement.
We auditioned four girls at Alaska Studios in Waterloo, London. Among them was a lass fresh down from Scotland who was so shy she wouldn’t emerge from the corner of the room at first. Also she had a rather obnoxious boyfriend, as I recall. So we passed.
Months later I saw Eddi Reader on TV backing the Gang of Four, and later still duetting with Annie Lennox in Eurythmics. Bloomin ‘eck!
Bet she has had many a sleepless night regretting my decision😂

What is the quickest and easiest way to get a decent band logo please?
Rather than badgering the guitarist to ask his artistically gifted daughter😂

Admittedly they won’t be dancing on the spot, but when you’re playing to a packed house (plus a few upstairs) it isn’t too much of an issue.
Worst bit is playing strung out in a line. Looking at pics I shoulda maybe been closer to the drummer.
