Listening guide
Last week was the 80th birthday of the legendary Yes co-founder Jon Anderson. To mark this important milestone, Mark and I chose just 3 of our favourite Anderson moments – solo (or collaborations), with Yes on record and with Yes live.
Clearly, we both had to do a lot of thinking and leave out countless items we could have included. However, we did come up with 6 interesting and iconic items to celebrate Jon’s birthday. It’s remarkable that he is still so active and has created such an amazing collection of musical wonders over more than 6 decades.
- What makes Jon Anderson a special musician?
- What collaborations or solo albums are our favourites?
- What are our choices of the best Jon live moments?
