Chris Squire - Live 2006 House of Blues - Part 1

Chris Squire with Henry Jackman (son of Andrew Jackman who was in The Selfs, wrote songs for The Syn and produced Fish Out of Water) and members of Spock's Beard at the Hollywood House of Blues in celebration of the 75th birthday of the Rickenbacker guitar. 27 August 2006. Recorded with a Sony T7 pocket camera from my hip, so I wouldn't attract attention. The short set included "Hold Out Your Hand / You By My Side" "Your Move" and "Roundabout"

Dear Iyesmuseum, it was Lee JackSON who was in The Nice as bassist and singer. It was Andrew JackMAN who played piano and orchestrated Squire's album "Fish Out of Water".

Oops. Yes, I agree. When I typed this note 3 years ago, I must've been tired! I had just listened to Emerlist DavJack by The Nice. I meant The Selfs. Thanks for setting the story straight. The same thing happened to Jon Anderson in an L.A. interview when the D.J. asked Jon about his time in The Move (which was the next guest's band - Jeff Lynne of ELO)

Happens to the best of us. Oh, another slight notice on my part, if you will indulge me. Emerlist DavJack (or full title being "The Thoughts of......") was by the Nice from their Autumn To Spring album featuring Davy O'List on Lead Guitar...unless it was also recorded by someone else I'm not familiar with, like the Selfs you mention.

[yesmuseum]

The album I reference was "The Thoughts of Emerlist DavJack" 1973, which does include the same titled track. I actually don't have "Autumn To Spring". I'll have to get it!

If you have the first 5 YES cd's, there's NO question Squire's importance in rock bass History Books.

Fantastic:)Say YES to YES

Chris' Rick maybe is made of pure steel. It is so old and still looks and sounds great.

[arweiss100]

Awesome! Chris sounds amazing! Henry has really come up in the world, as a very esteemed film composer..including scoring "X-Men First Class"!

This song plus lucky seven from "Fish out of water" forced me to go out and get a bass and learn to play..............excellent!!!­!

[TheBoulderbassist]

How come nobody ever mentions Michael Rutherford from Genesis in this conversation. Go back listen to Foxtrot and think about it. I thought Squire was like a God when I was teaching myself to play bass in the 70's!

Great music will hold up for ever. Fish Out of Water is one of the most under-rated, masterworks of the 70's and still sounds fresh today. Amazing. This performance gives me chills, witness the pure brilliance of Chris Squire. Hallelujah!

[chungiemunchin]

Thank you for the courage and generosity to video this performance and post it. Chris and Yes mean so much to me as a musician growing up and developing in the Seventies. They gave so many of us something to shoot for in terms of standard. The bar was raised high with Chris and the boys. His smile at the end of the song says it all.

Chris's only real solo YES vocal is on "Can You Imagine" off of the wonderful "Magnification" album

[quarqill]

[ginaonthebass]
