The Great Yes Technique Debate
Steve Turner, Rolling Stone, 30 March 1972
London — "I tell you this much," said the studio doorman, "its been a real eye-opener working here. See, my generation dont really appreciate how hard these lads work. Some of em come here and put in as much as 18 hours a day. Eighteen hours! I think if only people knew how much work they put in theyd be much more appreciative. See, I play the accordion so I know how hard they work."
