Damn, that sucks. Most of the fave prog rock bassists gone now. Glad I got to see a handful of them live, Chris Squire in particular a couple of times.

Yeah I saw all the Yes shows throughout the mislate 90s through their 2005 tour before Anderson left again. Haven't seen one since.

I'm dismayed now that I never saw Tony Levin. I don't THINK I have at least.

I've of course seen Geddy LEe a dozen times.

I saw them back in the early 2000s when they did what I think was called the masterworks tour. It was a great show, played a lot of my favourite tracks. Saw them again a few years ago on the We Can Fly From Here tour with the dude from the Yes cover band and I was actually surprised how good they were - Squire in particular was leaping around like a man man and was definitely star of the show (not surprising considering who else was in/not in the band!). I actually think it's a pretty great album, the only thing Yes have released since the 70s that I listen to fairly regularly - "Sad Night at the Airfield" is worth a listen in particular, best Yes song in decades.

Ray Shulman, Levin (hell, Kings Crimson in general), Richard Sinclair and Mike Howlett are probably 4 of the biggest living that I've never seen and probably never will, unfortunately.

Minor correction - he was the singer/bassist for the classic trio of Crimson records "Larks' Tongues in Aspic", "Starless and Bible Black" and "Red", but the original singer/bassist for the group was Greg Lake who also passed recently.

oh that's right! heheh King Crimson always was a big ball of spaghetti thanks to Robert Fripp's ego haha

I thought the Bruford years was a foursome tho. I don't know. Hard to keep track.

And what is also funny is that when Greg Lake died I thought that was HE doing the Easy MOney track I had seen before :)

I did know he was first. Just forgot that now. IT's so confusing

The lineup has been ever shifting. "Lark's Tongue" was a quintet, "Starless" was a quartet and they were down to a trio for "Red".

One certainly gets the feeling that Fripp can be a challenge to work with...

and then there was the time they did a "double-trio" :)

2 each of guitar, bass, and drums.
