Jon Anderson, 1000 Hands. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *

Despite the popular saying, Time will find ways to wait for the sensational to make itself known, it might not wait for the dull, for those whose belief sees them find ways, despite evidence to the contrary, to class themselves as ordinary and routinely static, but in the hands of the extraordinary, in the matters to which perfection is arguably sought, it will grant a seeming pause in the knowledge that what will appear, will be worth the wait, that the exceptional has the ability to become timeless, even when Time is still moving on.

Jon Anderson, Gig Review. Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool.

Originally published by L.S. Media. August 4th 2009.

After a much publicised health scare, in which he nearly lost his life, Jon Anderson has taken the first tentative steps back to touring and recording. The Lancashire born entertainer shows a lot more of his spiritual side these days as he looked less tense and more happy with himself and his long admired vocal ability.

Coming on stage to some of the loudest applause the Philharmonic Hall in Liverpool has seen for a one man show, Jon seemed surprised to see so many people there to hear him play. The audience knew that there might be a few awkward moments for Jon as he readily admits to not having been able to sing whilst recuperating but from the off everybody was on his side.
