| He was the mean guitarist in Yes, who stayed in the group when Yes
became the Buglyes.
He did one solo album which was called "The Steve Howe album". He can't
sing for toffee. The last one was a Vivaldi number which I thought was
dead good. I've got it on a Long Player. In fact I think the whole
album is pretty good.

| He was/is indeed one of the guitarists from Yes. A very accomplished
one at that. The Cd you refer to is a new one, and more information on
it can be found in the Yes topic in the MUSIC conference.

| 948.4 | Other shops? | KERNEL::SMITHERSJ | | Mon Dec 09 1991 16:53 | 22 |
| Thanks for everyone's inputs. I just rang Our Price to find
out the cost of the CD and how long it would take. They were
so unhelpful - they didn't know price - depending on which import
company we go to madam, it could cost anything above �20.
"Well, how much can I expect to pay - �50?? ", "If you are unlucky
madam".
They couldn't even ring the import company to find out price, as
its not their policy to do things over the phone and wanted me to
come in again struggling through the christmas shoppers so that they
could have the pleasure of ringing the company while I stood there
with my shining happy face. But says I, I've already fought my
way in once today - and that's enough. And then when I did come in,
they had never heard of it.
Are they are other shops I could do this over the phone? I don't
mind if they are not in Basingstoke, but as long as I can order it
without having to go there and have some idea of price etc,
before I order it.
Cheers

| He also did one solo album called "Beginnings" I think. On both his
solo albums I thought his guitaring was rough but good and the singing
was poor (some women were singing aswell as him) but I still liked them
at the time. Now they sound really old.

Julia,
The album is called "Turbulence", and is available on import. I've seen
it in HMV in Southampton for around 20 pounds, and I've also seen it on
mail order from some of the shops that advertise in the back of "Q"
for around the same price. I will try and remember to bring in a copy
so I can give you the telephone number, if you don't have one handy.

Never knew you had such excellent taste Chris! "After the War" (track
off the third (and final?) album (Asia "Alpha" ?) has to be my fave.
Once had the picture disk of the first album "Asia", but sold it a long
time ago.
Ta for the reminder of a brill band!

There were three full Asia albums and a complimation called
something like "now and then" which contained 5 or 6 new tracks.
This came out about six months ago.
I've never got around to buying it though I've read excellent reviews.

Oh, I thought it was a COMPILATION album Chris :-)
Sorry to hear about your little stroll the other night Chris!

| After having had not much success with the big records shops in
London, who don't import records on an individual basis, Nick
Hudson put me in touch with a company called Compact Disc Services
in Dundee. Not only did they have the CD in stock, but it only
cost me �11.95 and a pound for postage. I got it after a couple
of days.
Thanks, Nick. If anyone else would like to use them, their number
is 0382 76595.

I bought "Turbulance" on a trip to the States last week...it's very
good.
It also only cost me $13:00, a little cheaper than the run of the mill
HMV/Our Price ridiculous import prices.
Can anyone tell me if "Beginnings" or "The Steve Howe Album" are worth
getting, can anyone comment ?
Thanks,
Kevin.
