In 1989, four notable "Yes-men" — Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman and Bill Bruford — recorded a new album and toured under the obvious moniker ABWH (which does sound better than Affirmative, or Da). They filmed a video for "Brother of Mine," which eMpTyVee played a fair bit when it was new, but amazingly, it is not on YT. So here's the live version.*
*I saw this show at the Greek Theatre in L.A. a couple days earlier. Their touring bassist Tony Levin wasn't there, but in his stead was another bass-playing heavyweight, and former bandmate of Bill Bruford's: Jeff Berlin! So Jeff's in the live clip, which is taken from the full ABWH concert release An Evening of Yes Music Plus.
Greg Lake is reissuing his two early '80s solo albums Greg Lake and Manoeuvres as a two-fer with additional tracks. Gary Moore provided the lead guitar attack for the opening tune on Greg Lake, called "Nuclear Attack." Gary also toured with Greg.
In 1983, Gary recorded his own version of the song for his Dirty Fingers album. Needless to say...this one's better! Here's a positively smokin' live rendition, with ace support by (keyboardist) Don Airey, (bassist) Neil Murray, and (drummer) Ian Paice.
Rare Carl Palmer, the band is PM, alternatively Carl Palmer's PM, "Dynamite". Carl formed his own band, PM, for which he recruited vocalist Todd Cochran from the band Automatic Man and blues guitarist John Nitzinger, along with Erik Scott and Barry Finnerty. The band, an attempt at Top 40-style rock, released one album, entitled 1:PM, which was released in 1980 in Europe only. Success eluded the album and the band, which broke up shortly thereafter. Really quite awful, formulaic pop-rock.
Neil Young satirizes the sponsorship of concert tours, Whitney Houston, Bud, Miller, Coke, Pepsi, Spuds Mackenzie, and Michael Jackson on fire. "This Note's for You".
Yngwie J. Malmsteen's second album (and the first to call his backing band Rising Force) was called Marching Out (1985).
Jeff Scott Soto, metal's best-kept secret when it comes to great singers who deserve more recognition, recorded lead vocals for the entire album. But he was absent for the video shoot of "I'll See The Light Tonight." (Future Rising Force vocalist) Mark Boals stepped in to do a less-than-adequate lip sync.
