Trevor Rabin-Something to hold on to.

[@AmpAHolic-wn6mr]

Monster musician and producer. Trevor’s talent is simply off the charts. Crazy that most had to wait until 90125 to figure it out.

[@DanielBobke]

Most had to wait until 90125 because he was in South Africa and mostly unknown to the rest of the world. It is not like a lot of South African musicians are well-known elsewhere.

Cant Look Away was a superb album. Trevor is an amazing musician. Chatted to a South African friend many years ago, and happened to mention Trevor. He knew him from the Rabbit days. He certainly gave Yes a massive boost.

@@villebooks What the hell does that even mean??? He is TOTALLY underrated here in the States. Most people will never even have heard his name, must less give him the full credit that he deserves for resurecting Yes from the scrap heap of history (outside of the legacy Yes fans). Do you think that if 90125 wouldn't have been released (or "Love Will Find A Way") that the vast majority of listeners to popular music would have cared about Yes? Trever picked-up that band and NO doubt helped them along their way to fatter pay checks. Andf I say that as a HUGE prog rock fan, and one who knows and understands legacy Yes addicts. But Steve Howe didn't make Yes a household name like Trever did. No comparison. Steve's biggest commercial/household name project was Asia (whom I also love).

So, when did Trevor play with YES. Some of the chords sound so much like a couple of Yes tunes. Love will Find a Way, and Rythym of Love for example. He is definitely a great guitarist. This song brings back good sex memories. On the roof of a highrise in Detroit. Nothing but us, the stars, the city lights, the warm summer breeze and this Trevor Rabin song. Hell yeah baby.

Chris has gone on record and said Tevor's a better than Steve Howe hands down and that the difference betweent the two is that Trevor can play all of Steve's parts from classic Yes pretty much to a "T", but Steve can't perform Trevor's parts with nearly the same aplomb.
