If Chris Squire Played in U2

Just having a little fun here.

That is somewhat of an improvement.

While the extra business of Mr Squire isn't too distracting, this new arrangement is seriously lacking bottom end so they'd need some other instrument to fill in down there. Maybe a bass guitar? 😉

Out of interest and because I haven't listened to any Yes since 1975 which Yes song does the bassline come from for this mash up?

It's not a direct mash-up. I'm playing bass in what I thought would be Squires style. (And quoting a signiture lick here and there).  It's meant to be a parody.

Just shows that the often dismissed talents of Mr Clayton are in fact greater than many give him credit for.

Tough crowd.

I think its a very interesting mashup, being a massive CS fan, and quite liking some U2 stuff too.... fairplay to ya for trying something different!

Well I think it's a fun idea and one we should embrace and try with some other bands/bassists.

Hats off to AC - firstly for resisting the idea that good bass lines are complex bass lines (simplest is often best) and secondly for putting up with Bonio, who must surely be right up there as one of the most hypocricital, hubristic and monumental bell-ends of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

I guess the concept "irony" isn't too big in these here parts.  :  )

Not at all, it's just that Bonio gets on my nerves.

It is. We're agreeing with you.

Come on people, I’m sure Bonio is helping all those in the 3rd world with his tax haven. He’s using the system against itself.
