Chris Squire, Rest in Peace

I just learned that we have lost yet another Rock icon. As the only member of YES that played on each release plus some solo works, he will be missed. At age 67 he lost his battle with Leukemia yesterday. As a YES fan, it is sad that any future releases will be void of the innovative bass rifts and signature work of this musician.
Rest in Peace, Chris. You leave behind many fans that now are Owners of Lonely Hearts...

I live near Phoenix, and saw him with Yes twice at the Celebrity Theatre in the last two years, and he was as exciting as ever. I had seen Yes on the east coast a couple of times over the years, and have been admired and enjoyed his playng for well over 40 years.
I was hoping to see him again in the future, and along with many of us, I will truly miss him. It comes so soon after th passing of Jack
Bruce, my all time favorite.
