Trevor Rabin-Something to hold on to. 

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.

For Sure! Because of him they had their first and only #1 album. The whole album were Trevor's songs and demo's.

Didn't belong in Yes.

@@scotabot7826 Nope. Not true. It was because of him they had their first and only number 1 hit single. 90125 only made it to number 5(in the US)but not number one in any country.

@@coogskr11 Why do you say that?

You can'y even spell his name right.

One style, not like Howe who has proven can play any style of guitar(s)

coogskr11 lol. Howe was good at a couple things, but was in no way comparable to Rabin.

Jeremy Shirland totally agree. I’m a recent convert to all of Trevor ‘s material. He has become my favorite guitarist of all time. Every time you think it can’t get any better it always does. He’s a magician

Without a doubt. I totally agree.

@@liontone I SO AGREE with YOU!!

Asia

@@donrogers4441 This was 1989, so Asia wasn't an issue. ABWH and Yes spat was.

Balls

Never felt that... Just glad Trevor shared music 🎶

Never was underrated, never will be.

@@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).

Please don't put down Trevor. hahaha

Pretty damn good singer, too.

Blackdog great analogy!

Definitely not Peodophile like that atrocious fuckwit Brian May 🤮

@@dischargesummary8794 Uhhhh... Where the Hell did you hear that?? Brian May is one of the greatest guitarists of all time, has a PHD in Astrophysics, and has been advocating for the rights of animals, badger culling. That and he’s a fantastic human being. Maybe you’re thinking of Gary Glitter? Or Pete Townsend?

Interesting! 🤔

Completely agree. Would have been amazing.

@@curtisboswell2619 Imagine Rick Wakeman with them as well.

I also wanted this.

Interesting for Rabin to have played on Biko.

I got mine in Pusan when I was stationed there too!!!

HOWE!

So did Eric Carmen remember him? Especially in the video Make Me Lose Control..

It is an amazing album. All killer no filler!

@@julio_scissors no not really

right on. i went digital too

One of the best music videos ever.

I know. So many iguanas were used and abused in the making of this music video.

@@nikelover76 I would hope the flying iguana was CGI'd.

Last McCartney album he's playing the drums too The voice is not quite there in a few songs But the "old fart" (just kidding of course) is not a slouch on drums \o/

zzzzzzzz

Jon - South African born 55. I did walk past him around 1975 at Jan Smits Airport. Glad he had a long career. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

I don't think that is how it went down....LOL!

Moebiuslink Ok so it may have been a few years later.. I was there, it happened, the performance was inspiring. who cares what day it was.

Rob Campbell Also, Trevor was 30 and you're full of crap. Just kidding, maybe you were just really really high in the 80's!

Nothing in this story is true.

Rob Campbell Wow you are so full of shit. 1: Yes was broke up after Drama. So, no Steve Howe did not quit before the tour as Trevor was not even in the band yet.2: 90125 came in 1983, in October. You missed it by 8 years.3: That tour NEVER played in LA, much less a university. Even the Big Generator tour did not play there!4: You are so stupid, you would try to drown a fish. What the hell is wrong with you? Trying to make shit up to sound cool instead of being a fool? I am posting your stupid ass on Facebook to see how many people laugh at you. You really should not lie and before you get in deeper water, this Trevor Rabin solo tour (IE the song above) was in 1989. You know how I know all this? I ran cables on his tour for audio...

Maybe homage to Buddy Guy

Do you have the Trevor Rabin signature Pantera? Very cool guitar.

Jack Cole No, I drool every time one pops up on E-bay. Way too expensive. I do have the pearl "regular" X300 Pantera and a X275, though. I took the X300 to the local Guitar Center and showed the manager. I didn't think he was going to give it back. He couldn't believe I had found one. I did find a Villian in great condition with the Modulus neck, but believe it or not the neck is badly bowed. I've read they never do.

Cool, enjoy those rare beauties!

Are they not cool kick ass guitars

I happened to pick one up for a song a few months ago. It will be painted powder blue in due course!

Love Will Find a Way was supposed to get into this Trevor's solo album (Can't Look Away), but the other Yes guys listened that song and smartly "stoled" it for the Big Generator album.

He's one of the few guitar players when you hear his notes you automatically know its him. Joe Walsh is another example.

JESUS CHRIST IS LORD GOD ALMIGHTY---"I AM THE LORD, AND BESIDE ME THERE IS NO SAVIOR."

Farrah Teague I agree. He kind of reminds me of Donny Osmond but better looking

Jennifer Felan And he's still handsome. I might have him go easy on the black hair dye (dark brown would be better heheh) but I was in awe when I saw ARW several weeks ago.

I was a bit bummed when I found out his wife was the model in this video.

He's also married young lady so don't even think about it. :P

I have seen pictures of his wife. That is definitely not his wife in the video. Not sure where you got that information from but it's wrong.

Not a doubt. When both played in YES , always playing around , making jokes and so....

Chris said in his opinion Trevor’s up there with Hendrix and Harrisson. Listen to “A Croak & a Grunt in the Night,” and you get an idea why Chris would’ve said it. I think Trevor’s as good as if not better than Brian May, and I love Brian May’s guitar playing.

@@Bikewithlove at first I laughed, but the more I thought about it the more sense you made. It’s a bold as hell statement and it’s all subjective but you might be right.

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.

Michael Sherwood Wow, that far back?? I know the two know each other quite well...

Todd Clemmer I just recently discovered this album and totally agree with you. There may be an equal but there’s none better.

MTV is not cool anymore . American TV is just awful altogether .

+Fabrício Assis MG MTV used to stand for MUSIC... but like everything else, the American dream has become a nightmare. Don't let go of your dreams.

Yup, very similar riff

Please check out the albums he did with YES. 90125, Big Generator, Talk. Wonderful stuff.

me too
