Title: Yes, Tales From Topographic Oceans

Hard to believe it was 40 years ago...

Here is a great interview with Jon Anderson.

And an older interview from 2008 with Rick Wakeman.

I especially liked this paragraph.
"In those days, I used to have my roadie actually lying underneath the Hammond organ throughout the set. If anything went wrong he could try to fix it. Also, he could continually hand me my alcoholic drinks"

BTW, the 24/192 HiRes recording of TFTO is exquisite.
