As a side note I also remember on the same excursion we visited Kings Cross the red light district to visit the wax museum 

Kinda of makes a guy wonder...  Did he leave himself that wide open or should I just scroll on down???  Nope, not gonna bite.  Just scroll  😂   :)   😂

But as a young boy I did not know what the Red light district was 🤪🤪

Good evening friends!  Enjoying being back home after the convention week away.  So, I am listening to side 3 and 4 of the Steve Hackett LP, one more to go after this, but I will save that for tomorrow evening.

I need to be quick with my post as Suppers Ready is just about to start and I will be persona non grata for 20+ minutes 🤪

The scattered pages of a book by the sea
Held by the sand, washed by the waves
A shadow forms cast by a cloud,
Skimming by as eyes of the past, but the rising tide
Absorbs them effortlessly claiming.

They told of one who tired of all singing,
"Praise him, praise him."
"We heed not flatterers," he cried,
"By our command, waters retreat,
Show my power, halt at my feet,"
But the cause was lost,
Now cold winds blow.

For from the north overcast ranks advance
Fear of the storm accusing with rage and scorn.
The waves surround the sinking throne
Singing "Crown him, crown him,"
"Those who love our majesty show themselves!"
All bent their knees.

But he forced a smile even though
His hopes lay dashed where offerings fell (where they fell).
"Nothing can my peace destroy as long as none smile."
More opened ears and opened eyes,
And soon they dared to laugh.
See a little man with his face turning red
Though his story's often told you can tell he's dead.

Good evening once again, Sunday evening here, and though I have to work tomorrow, as promised, finishing up the Steve Hackett LIVE from Royal Albert Hall 2013 remastered on 3 vinyl discs.  Here, side #5 ready to go on the P6 🍷IMG-2169.jpg

Moving on..........The living members of YES have been leaving tributes to their friend and fellow musician that recently passed away.  Today, I landed on a new youTube video with Steve Howe paying a tribute to Alan White.  He played a tune from this album on his acoustic (Turn of the Century).   Prompted me to play this tonight.
