@TimothyNiland @thesidsmith No Timothy. It was the music journalists that slated the album. The Yes fans I knew loved it.

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@andertonsmusic Would I get money off for it being a bit scratched?

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@SkySportsGolf Why no coverage of Michael Stewart? Get your act together Sky Sports!

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@SkySportsGolf Not much coverage of Michael Stewart’s round. He’s doing better than Rory.

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@thesidsmith Don’t know which look is more menacing

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@thesidsmith I have a real soft spot for Little Movements. I saw that wonderful line-up on the tour for that album. Charlie Mariano, Rainer Bruninghaus and John Marshall. Brilliant and moving music.

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@yesofficial They’re not doing anything anymore

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@yesofficial Shouldn't they be doing "Tales at 50" rather than Relayer?

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@Idster65 @burningshednews The only one I haven't got is CD 5 (the Japanese only release). Is it worth buying the set for that and the booklet?

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@TimBowness @jethrotull He was a master of the acoustic-based song. "Life is a Long Song" is a big favourite of mine.

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@ToneInToyland @TimBowness My favourite is Duck Soup

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@TimBowness @Sofa_sound @treygunn I liked that track so much I've pre-ordered the album. Thanks for the tip!

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@TimBowness @Sofa_sound @treygunn Sounds really good. Great to hear Peter's amazing lead vox.

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@TimBowness Some of Trevor Horn's best work, methinks.

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

Really pleased by my new #PhoneCase from #IATO

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

Surely the best contemporary British composer, in my opinion. He leaves an amazing body of work and will be sadly missed.

Composer Harrison Birtwistle dies aged 87 https://t.co/BDvN6QBjff

@thesidsmith Me too Sid! Richard Strauss and Ligeti opened my mind to much more interesting music than what I'd been listening to up until then.

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@Sofa_sound Brilliant gig in Edinburgh. Thanks chaps!

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@thesidsmith Agree Sid. I loved even more the version they played on the Old Grey Whistle Test https://t.co/RhdGWUx0W3

[David Crossen @davedigidesign]

@thesidsmith This was the album that got me into ECM records. I think I heard Terje Rypdal first on Michael Mantler's the Hapless Child and had to investigate.
