Awaken justifies the entire existence of Yes. People (including me) get gushy about the CTTE album, but it all peaked at the album version of Awaken.

Mental as Anything band featuring the late 'Greedy Smith' on vocals with 'Live it Up'

Go Lemmy...

Well, I doubt almost nobody has heard this one.
It is about 5 years old.
And I just heard it on "It's A Jangle Out There".

Rarely? How about never?

Bram Tchaikovsky was also in a band called The Motors in the late '70s - I still have their first album somewhere. I heard them on WNEW-FM in NYC, which - at that time - had some DJs who played new, obscure, and cutting edge stuff.

An old favorite for certain.  The entire album is a gem in my humble opinion of course.

Underture from Tommy comes straight to my mind.  Many find this too long and boring.  I wish it was longer.

Nice New Wave, Cutting Edge and stuff nobody else was playing. It left a mark on me.

They featured Bram Tchaikovsky's first couple of LP's. I have those disc still. But I picked this up a few years ago which made listening a lot easier... https://www.amazon.com/Strange...
Great stuff that isn't played anymore.

Another one...

Wow, thanks for that memory. Had it on VHS. I’ve been following Copeland recently on FB and he’s - no surprise - still…exuberant. I love how there’s the little break where he tries to re-establish his claim that he’s the one that wanted to make Roxanne into a reggae beat.
And the whole percussion bed sounds like it might be cobbled together in pieces, which is fine, allowing for more complexity. 

If I made my fictional Best Drummer it would certainly include Copeland on cymbals/hi hat, Moonie on toms, Simon Phillips bass, and Bruford on snare.

Just saw/listened to your reply—that was quite good although I didn't catch a lot of the lyrics. How did you know about Bram? All I heard of him on FM radio back in the day was "Girl of My Dreams" and that was a minor hit.
