Hi Bill, been a big fan since the early seventies. You were the first drummer I ever heard where I could instantly hear the music in the drumming... I always think of your work in Close to the Edge in that way. Best regards!!! Dave

Hey Bill,

Thanks for the add.

The first time I seen you in concert was with Yes back in 1971 (I believe) when Yes opened up for Emerson, Lake & Palmer at the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago.
If memory serves me, that was on Yes' first tour of the states after "Your Move" hit it big on the radio.

You have been one of my musical idols for the better part of my life.
