The Anderson Bruford
Wakeman Howe album is released. Jon Anderson,
disenchanted with Yes, recruited Steve,
Rick Wakeman, and Bill Bruford to record some tracks.
The project developed into an album—and ultimately
a band—christened Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe; Bruford’s Crimson band mate Tony Levin
handled bass. ABWH embarks on a world
tour, with the ABWH performance in
Mountainview, CA, broadcast live over pay-per-view;
it is subsequently released to video as An Evening
of Yes Music Plus, the tag line for the tour. |
