Ten Albums In Ten Days - Day 5

Ten Albums In Ten Days That Changed You 
 or hold significant meaning for you. 

5. “Yessongs” - Yes (1973) 

My first real dive into progressive rock. Their first live album, I actually bought it out of sheer curiosity. The fact that it was three discs long was part of it. And whereas the recording is not exceptional technically, the performance certainly is. Composed largely of material from their two most recent albums (“Fragile” and “Close to the Edge”), it features the most iconic of Yes’ many member lineups. Yes is still, by far, my favorite progressive rock band to this day. 

Favorite tracks: "Heart of the Sunrise", "Close to the Edge", and "Starship Trooper".

Ready for a Road Trip

Ok, I'm ready for a road trip. So, I got online to check out concerts this summer. There really aren't many good artists touring this summer that I want to see. Those few that I do, the available locations are on unworkable nights. Except for one.

Both Yes and Peter Frampton, on the same bill, are playing Biloxi on Friday night, June 11th. I can actually do that one. So, I've put the announcement out. But I'm determined to go whether anyone else goes or not. So now all I have to do is wait.

Other than that I don't know what I'm going to do for vacation this year. I pray that God inspires me.
