@riberto123

Thanks Robert. Moogs are the best since Patrick collaborated with Bob Moog. Its a narrow square wave with a bit of resonance and an open envelope.

I hate when people say I'm not a real Yes fan When I say Relayer is my favorite LP. And my favorite LZ LP is Presence so I guess I'm not a true LZ fan either

@FairDealDan

I get the same thing when I say I like Drama, the first concert I ever saw.

Great job. I'm just looking for such a keyboardist, as I often naturally compose arrangements, usually instrumentals, in the style of Yes mostly using guitars or elc bass and Rick, Tony, and Oliver are quite busy.

@ThruTube1

Thanks! How can I hear your material? Where are you located?

[grindoftheday]

I couldn't imagine this being any more perfect.

I see a lot of Talent!

I think Patrick credits Ray Gomez......a guitar playing freind as his solo playing influence....particularly for Pitch bends and Modulation...you can hear Gomez on some of the Moraz solo work......Sound wise, I saw him play it on the now retired Dual Minimoog as well as a Minimoog slaved to a Micromoog...I can get that sound using my Studio electronics SE1....its the playing..not so much the sound.....thanks for "laying it down", James ...a real delight.

@FairDealDan hang on, admittedly I only know two or three other yes fans (seeing as I'm 19 it's probably not that surprising), but all of them like Relayer. I never knew it was a frowned upon album, it's right up with "Close to the Edge" and "Fragile" in my opinion. Then again, I openly admit to liking "Tormato". Make of that what you will...

[megafunk88]

You Relayer freak, you! Nice job!!!

[drkam6]

Fantastic playing - you really need Moraz's double minimoog for the final part, which is at Cantos in Calgary, Canada.

[electricchaos]

Way to go buddy I'm sure Patrick Moraz would be proud. Hell even Wakeman would be as well.Keep it up !

@ifly65 dude, i love Drama

[marmas58ink]

@blormp1 The SC intro adds a definite flavor to the track, plus it has some of Alan's jazziest/(most Bruford-like perhaps?) drumming... Also it has what is prob Jon's only woodwind contribution to a Yes song! (Until just a few years ago I thought his tin-whistle was another synth sound.)

@marmas58ink

i know moraz wrote entire intro...he had credit on all tunes and wrote some sections on each

like theTBO keyboard break etc...

[blormp1]

awesome...i have 52 live versions(i know iknow im bad...)

...been way carried away with this stuff for 30+yrs...

each version of this song has a different solo

...he busts into star spangled banner on some...he is the top shelf.

he opened for coltane in the sixties w/patrick moraz quintet!

@FairDealDan

That's odd because Relayer is my fave Yes album, and Presence is my fave Zep album!

This video is top notch playing well done ifly65 you nailed my fave Yes keyboard solo.
