And to top it all off you look a bit like Geddy in disguise.
What amp/amps are you you using? Any effects?

Now, when are you going to tackle the Close To The Edge suite?

| | | | Thanks for the props, guys! These were a lot of fun. Sadly, CTTE isn't among the 4. Not much to do during the Wakeman solo section!
No FX pedals - just the bass going into an SWR SM-400 head & ADA MB1 preamp through a Hiwatt 4x12 cab (w/ 85 watt Celestions.) |

Back in those days Chris was using Sunn amps with 6 x 12 cabinets. Saw Yes two years ago and the clank factor was overwhelming when he used the old Rose Morris. A new Rick sounded better.
