Which Yes is your Yes?

Yes is now rightfully in the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.  I know, I am a bit of a Prog Rock guy, but even if you’re not, you have to admit that Yes did play an important part in the History Of Music.  And I was fortunate enough to have seen Yes Live In The Round back in the late 70’s.  But if Yes came to town, I would pass on the show.  Because as far as I am concerned, Yes music is sung by Jon Anderson.  I have nothing against Jon Davison, current Yes frontman, but, well, JON ANDERSON!  Now Jon, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman, known (up till now) as ARW, is now Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman.  The real Yes, with Steve Howe, Alan White, Geoff Downs, Billy Sherwood and the previously mentioned Jon Davison, issued a statement basically saying Jon Anderson has the rights to use the name he is using, please if you’re somehow involved with promoting the bands, make sure fans know which band is which!  Confused?  It’s a bit of a puzzle, but if I see that Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman are coming to  town (they will play Layton Utah’s The Kenley Amphitheater September 12th), I will go!  Oh, and Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman have also announced they are working on new music.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is a complete guide to all the Yes lineup changes!
