ABWH - Brother Of Mine (Shoreline Amphitheatre, Mountain View, CA 1989)

Personally I think this is a little too fast, for which I blame myself entirely. The album version is around 103 beats per minute, this is more like 108 b.p.m. Contemporary drummers on rock tours usually have some kind of a ‘clock’ (metronome) by their sides, so they can count the song in at least in an agreed tempo. They then may well be entirely governed by an automated track that they play along with through the entire song. In my era, we just played it at the tempo the drummer – primarily - thought appropriate. But there could be difficulties with the perception of tempo, depending upon what stimulants had been consumed by the participants. If everyone is in the same cloud of joint smoke, that’s sort of OK; it just means it’s going to take a while to get through the song. If everyone is on cocaine, that too is arguably OK – you’re going to get through it very fast. Trouble starts when the guitarist is grassed out, the bass player coked out, and the drummer entirely neutral. Then the drummer gets shot at from all sides. I hadn’t seen a gold record in a while so the success of the ABWH album came as a pleasant surprise. Interestingly, I have never received such a thing for my efforts with King Crimson. ‘Larks’ Tongues in Aspic’, ‘Red’, or ‘Discipline’ would certainly have racked up sufficient sales by now, but I believe the sales have to be with a single company. Yes had Atlantic Records, and in this case ABWH was on Arista. ‘Brother of Mine’ was released as an edited single and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. Its music video was directed by Storm Thorgerson. Clive Davis, head of Arista, produced the edit. There was a fair bit of groaning as Clive master-minded what many thought was a massive missed opportunity. Everyone at radio just wanted an obvious single from this song, and Clive managed to omit the hook. The upside was we would probably have turned into Asia, which is something of a relief. #billbruford #yes #jonanderson #drummer
