Having finished the album the drummer, Bill Bruford, joined King Crimson, another favourite of mine. Maybe I'll come back to that in the near future... :)

Great choice! When I was young I had the Roger Dean poster of the cover framed and hung in my bedroom. I probably had it right next to my Jimmy Page double-neck guitar picture (framed in orange tape, of course"!

Have you heard the anderson bruford wakeman and howe concert from the mountain view amphitheater circa 1989( with tony levin on bass- although they may have replace him for the broadcast with someone else)? it's quite interesting-I I think you would enjoy it .

@dutchzaphod Would I be correct in thinking that your background image was taken just outside the Amstelhoeck? Great choice of music though, I love Yes!

@spook_school You are incorrect (but I won't hold it against you) :) It actually shows the 'Oudeschans'. In terms of alcoholic beverages, when I took this picture I was standing next to café 'De Sluyswacht', named after the lock there (Sint Antoniesluis). The tower you see in the distance is the 'Montelbaanstoren'.

Lest we forget, Bruford did such a good job sitting in with genesis in 1976 that they released it as a live album!
