Huge inspiration to a lot of players! will be missed!!!

 

[rottingcorpse]

Thanks for the killer bass lines. See ya on the other side.

 

[RG955TT]

True innovator, loved his music. Way more than the typical bass player. He was the essence of YES. R.I.P

 

[Valtyr]

Chris was a huge inspiration and one of the major reasons my favorite instrument is a Rickenbacker 4001.

 

[amiller]

At their peak Yes was my favorite! I measured every other band by them. This is indeed a sad day...we have lost a true artist and inspiration!

RIP

I live in the same city as him.... Kent. I would run into him and a few of the other members of Yes once in awhile..... No one ever recognized them. Anyonercould walk up to them and start a conversation. These guys were always nice to me.

How Yes isn't in the HOF, I'll never know

 

[El Mariachi]

RIP Mr. Squire.

 

[TremoJem]

An epic loss for sure.

HOF is a joke...don't bother trying to figure that one out.

R.I.P. my Brother.

Saw YES around 91-92...think it was the Union tour iirc. Anyways, great live band and musicians.

And yes the HOF is a calamity of cluster-fucks. I enjoyed hearing Eddie Trunk getting lathered up yesterday talking about the HOF; his lament for how fucked up the loss of Chris is, coupled with nonregocnition by HOF. It's maddening really....

RIP Chris
