I'm not a Yes fan at all, but he was an amazing bass player. I'm glad I got to see him in concert.

I'm sure I've mentioned somewhere that he is one of my favorite bassists.
I'm a bit sad.

Play for Chris

I do hope this was shared with Squire before he passed.

Yesterday Chris was cremated at 3:00 pm Scottsdale, AZ time. His widow, Scotland, made the following request.
Scotland Squire wrote:My best friend and the love of my life Chris Squire will be cremated today in Scottsdale, Arizona at 3:00 pm.

However, knowing Chris, he might be running a bit late for the event; After all, he has always been the 'late' Chris Squire.

So at 3:00 pm Phoenix time, please take a moment to play your favorite Yes or Chris Squire song, or just think of your favorite Chris Squire memory.

Sending my love to all,

Scotland Squire
I chose to listen to the Chris Squire composition Onward at that time. However, Chris' song On the Silent Wings of Freedom would have worked just as well.

I've been busy all day and missed your information.
Good Tormato picks.

I keep very little music these days, but do have The Revealing Science of God.
Which I'll listen to later tonight on low volume, with some treble cut, and bass boost.
