It looks as if Rabin has done very well in the soundtracks business.

What song did he do with them? Owner? Changes?

Apples to oranges. Steve's awesome with Yes up through Drama. Some of the best guitar playing you'll hear on record in that decade.

Trevor kills, too, but he wasn't able to show it as much with Yes. I think that's why he got bored and left after that piece o' shit Talk album. And the next one (with Sherwood) might be the worst thing they ever put out. Fortunately, they got Wakeman and Howe back and recorded the music for both volumes of Keys To Ascension.

I actually prefer "Talk" to the other Yes albums Rabin was on except for "90125". You're right about "Open Your Eyes", though...Terrible. The music on both KTA albums was certainly a breath of fresh air.

Rabin wasn't on "Open Your Eyes", but it was definately a weak Yes album. Most of the record is cast offs from other solo projects.

It's no mystery that Rick Wakeman and Trevor Rabin are literally the two coolest guys that have ever been in Yes. They even hung out together and drove the way between shows on the Union tour, while the other guys flew. I still hope the 'RAW" (Rabin-Anderson-Wakeman) project happens one of these years.
