R.I.P. to the bassist of Yes, Chris Squire, who passed away today. I will always remember the first time I heard Roundabout on the radio, and being amazed by the bass in that song. He has probably been one of the most influential bassists in rock and metal, influencing such great bassists such as Geddy Lee and Steve Harris.

Sad news. I can´t Count the hours of listening to Yes albums and Squire´s inventive bass playing. As mentioned probably one of the most influential bass players.

Indeed but you forgot to add the ever or all-time. You are 100% correct though

Very sad news, what a phenomenal bass player. Had the pleasure of seeing him play with Yes a dozen times or so. Unhappy
