Re: Bill Bruford (no who content)
Hi Jordy!
You are right! I didn't mention Bruford's stint in the 1980's with KC. Are
you sure that Bruford didn't also drum on the last Yes album? I thought
that all the original and non-original members collaborated on it (i.e.,
sent in recorded tapes and merged them).
Later.
Doug.
