Steve Howe Trio Live Swindon Arts Centre

My love affair with Yes began in 1971 and 1972 The two albums from that year took me in, hook, line and sinker. I often reflect as to why I have stayed with the affair over 42 years, given I am a person whom loves the dynamic of change. The answer lies in the Yes families ability to keep on producing audacious moments of creativity which build on the promise of those albums. The first projects from Jon & Vangelis, The first version of Earth Works from Bill and Jon's acoustic progressive vision expressed on Change We Must and more recently "Open". The Steve Howe Trio are beginning to build the same kind of momentum. The three new pieces "Buzzard...", "Devil...." and Joni Mitchells "Conversations" show the band on a creative wave, building on the first set of new recordings on the Haunted Melody. There was a focus and sense of purpose to these pieces which indicate they are pushing on developing the dynamic of their relationship explor
