Sweet! it’s really cool to have a yes database now! i’m working on the whole close to the edge album, i have clabboraters already but if i need more i’ll post em’ here. Also i did a live version of “long distance runaround”, but i don’t know if you wanna put live material in the DB.
Outside of my current Yes pack, I will help to upgrade Gates Of Delirium and AJFOne’s currently released stuff. I do intend to get around to finishing Tales from Topographic Oceans after I release the “excerpts” version.
Songs planned and will work on in the future:
The Clap
Tales From Topographic Oceans (The Revealing Science Of God, The Remembering, The Ancient, Ritual)
Tormato (Future Times/Rejoice, Don’t Kill The Whale, Madrigal, Arriving UFO, Circus Of Heaven)
Songs from Paris Sessions, unfinished third album of late 70s Yes (Golden Age, Go Through This, etc.)
Machine Messiah
Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe (Fist Of Fire?, Brother Of Mine, Quartet, Order Of The Universe,
Let’s Pretend)Union (I Would Have Waited Forever, Shock To The System (maybe), Miracle Of Life)
Talk (I Am Waiting, Real Love, State Of Play, Walls, Where Will You Be(?), The Endless Dream)
There are plans to do solo work by former members of the group, but those are separate.
Wakeman (Stuff from Six Wives Of Henry VIII up to Rhapsodies)
Squire (Fish Out Of Water)
I have listened much to Yes beyond Talk and will do so to get a better idea.
EDIT: Consolidated list better
just an opinion… Ladder and Magnification are great albums too

I wasn’t sure where to put in my request for songs from “Big Generator”. So I’m putting it here. (AND I’m most grateful for any and all Yes songs that do get done)
Specifically, I’d love to see “Love Will Find a Way” ,and if at all possible – “Shoot High,Aim Low” (easily the best song from that album,IMO)
Thank you all for all of your hard word w/RBC.
I would be more than happy to work on America and Perpetual Change if no one else is doing so already.
I was planning on starting on Perpetual Change with stems. What instruments do you prefer to author? I most like drums and bass guitar.
I see that Into the Lens is listed as “synched”. What does that mean exactly? Does that mean it’s being worked on? If so, I might be able to help. I was planning on doing “I Am A Camera”, which is highly similar to it. Just wanted to make sure I’m not duplicating any efforts 😎

Synced means I have a tempo map ready for adding notes. It’s still being worked on with the other Yes. As for “I Am A Camera”, depends on how different the song is, I haven’t listened to it myself. To my knowledge, the song is half the length, so I assume that some of what makes Into The Lens great is missing.
You are correct. “I Am A Camera” is a less fleshed-out version of “Into the Lens”. Apparently Yes added their input to it while Trevor and Geoff “merged” with Yes for the Drama album, then the two made their own version as The Buggles. I definitely like the Yes version much better though 😎

I’ll cast my vote for “Love Will Find a Way” from Big Generator as well. I’d also love to play “Rhythm of Love” from that album.
If you care to venture beyond the Rabin era, I could suggest some songs from Open Your Eyes. I seem to be in the minority, but I think it’s is a pretty good Yes album, at least as good as Talk or Big Generator. “New State of Mind”, “Fortune Seller” and “Man in the Moon” are all among my favorite Yes songs.
