Trevor Rabin- "Owner Of A Lonely Heart" 90124 2003

The 90124 CD was released with the name and cover obviously referencing 90125. With tongue in cheek Trevor sorted through the old demos of his solo session recordings. This collection gives one the rare insight to the evolution of a song such as the working versions of Owner of A Lonely Heart, Hold On and Changes. Would You Feel My Love comes from a more progressive production while Where Will You Be is an instrumental demo with Roger Hodgson on backing vocals. Love Will Find A Way was orginally presented to Stevie Nicks for her solo album, but eventually wound up on Big Generator. This album is a fascinating insight showing how Trevor developed his songs and demonstrate how much his presence influenced the sound of YES.

Exactly!

@vivelavidarocka Its cool.

That was more out of my dad's mouth than mine, but he's right; the notion that YES reached their pinnacle because of one guy AFTER their truly best material was released is assinine, plain and simple. It was a phenomenal song and superb album no doubt, and it "rebooted," so to speak, YES's career, but the guy is a bonehead, plain and simple for qualifying that.

Like it or not this is also YES. And Rabin, for us "post 80's fans", is OUR Wakeman, Howe, Squire or Anderson (+ Bill, Tony and Alan).

I mean, old timers of the band should ease up a little bit with some remarks. No, we're not all idiots, and we like The Yes Album, Fragile and Close To The Edge as much as you, but at difference of some of you, we also like 90125, Big Generator and Talk for a very special reason: we were young and those were OUR times. Peace.

@Truck111 Some of their 80's fans got to discover their earlier catalog, and love it as much as their works from that decade. I'm a YES FAN (we're all in this together) that could finally see the band live in the 80's (with this album) BUT had been listening to their music since I was probably - 7 months (in my mother's belly, a die hard fan) and was familiar with their material. Agreed, this is not their best song /album of their repertoire but it has a lot of quality and originality

Yeesh. No wonder "Cinema' couldn't get a contract. Hey, don't shoot me. I'm a Trevor fan. This version though....it wouldn't have gotton on FM radio in 1983, I know that. I was very there.....

@rejapgee Sorry, you are right. Rabin did a lot, but I guess not that....

[rejapgee]

@AcuraT You think Trevor Rabin wrote "Video Killed The Radio Star"?!! What planet are you from??!! The Buggles was Trevor HORN's band!!!

@CopperKingKid I just about died laughing. Wait, you were serious? Oh dear. Dude, put the crack pipe down and listen to Close to the Edge if you want to hear musical genius.

[Truck111]

@CopperKingKid lawl, you're an idiot.

All you post 80's Yes fans have zero idea of anything,...

@CopperKingKid lawl, you're an idiot.
