A great song (and album) by Yes.
Again, not the usual famous/hits you may know the band for.

The lyrics do seem to have a Zen/Buddhist feel to it (Jon Anderson influence, I think).
Examples: The more we live > the more we learn > the more we know The more we give > the more we love > the more we grow The more we see > the more we try > the more we show The more we fear > the more we lie > the more we hide

"The More We Live - Let Go" Lyrics
You and I can change the world The more we live, the more we learn, the more we know
From this moment on we share the world The more we give, the more we love, the more we grow
The spirit of imagination can lead us through the dark The more we see, the more we try, the more we show
The evidence of our confusion, life has left its mark The more we fear, the more we lie, the more we hide
As we walk into tomorrow (Turning away from the path we know) Holding the future with our hands (We carry the weight of the world we go) It's up to you and I (We hold the key; we hold the answer)
All our thoughts of doubt and fear (We leave it all by one) The more we live, the more we learn, the more we know
For each of us the road is clear and life has just begun; The more we give, the more we love, the more we grow
It's time to ease the thoughts we set for ourselves The more we fear, the more we lie, the more we hide
All we need is just to believe in ourselves We face the truth, we see it clear, with no disguise
Cast away our doubt and sorrow (Turning away from the past we know) The Universe and all can be (Showing the fate of the world we know) Together you and I, we hold the key to all the answers (Let go)

Trivia:
Some songs were originally written by the band ABWH (Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe) and some by Yes.
Initially recorded by both groups separately as their own compositions. Then, the producer and the label decide (along with Jon) to redo the bits originally recorded by Rick Wakeman and Steve Howe.
The song Masquerade (ABWH) received a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Instrumental Performance.
Cover art was (again) by Roger Dean.
From Wikipedia: "The number of people who worked on the album is highly unusual. There are seven different producers, roughly 17 recording engineers and mixers, six backing singers, nine synthesizer player/programmers and no less than four additional musicians who added parts as well. ... four pages of the album's CD booklet are dedicated to the song credits."
From Wikipedia: "Producer Jonathan Elias's decision, with Anderson, to have session musicians overdub Wakeman and Howe's parts proved to be controversial with fans and critics."
Song List, Original Writers, and (My) Recommendation Notation:
I Would Have Waited Forever (ABWH) - Recommended

Wonderful Land by The Shadows. One of their record 5 UK instrumental Number 1's. Written by Jerry Lordan and originally released by The Shadows in 1962, staying at No. 1 for 8 weeks. After Apache, which was also written by Lordan, this was probably The Shadows best known hit (although I think they should also have tried to get a catchy one word title for this).
This performance was broadcast 31 January 1970 and sees The Shadows using their 'other guitars'. Hank Marvin is most closely associated with his red and white Fender Stratocaster but here he and bassist John Rostill are seen with their black and white Baldwin-Burns Guitars. If you watch John, on the left, at the start of the clip it looks as if he wasn't expecting the backing track to start when it did. As far as I can tell Hank is playing live but its hard to tell at times as he can just play note perfect every time.
Rhythm guitarist Bruce Welch is missing as he had temporarily left the group. Other long time member Brian Bennett is on drums.
Completing the line-up is Alan Hawkshaw seated at the piano. Many won't realise he was in The Shadows for a while but may be familiar with his name and the music he composed for UK television shows such as the music from Countdown, the theme to Dave Allen's comedy shows and the library music that was used as the themes to both Grange Hill and Give Us A Clue.
John Rostill died in 1973 and Alan Hawkshaw in 2021.

August brings us 75 years of the Injustice Society! One of the longest running villain teams in the DCU, it set the stage for all later groups that posed the question "If the heroes can team up, why can't their respective enemies do the same?"

Tom and Jerry: The Magic Ring (2001)
My rating: 3/10
Some might have considered the fact that, after padding the script using several metric tons of pure unadulterated tedium, they still couldn't quite make this thing an hour long, and come to the conclusion that this was a bad idea. Not so whoever made this movie, though, they persevered in the face of all common sense and reason, and now we get to suffer for their mistake.

“Act Nice and Gentle” de los Kinks en versión de Duster Bennett en su último LP para Blue Horizon, “12 DB´s” (1970) y en el magnífico CD “Kinked!” (Ace, 2016) que recoge una interesante docena de versiones de canciones que los Kinks publicaron en los sesenta y otra docena de temas que cedieron a otros artistas. Como en “The Songs That Lennon- McCartney Gave Away”, el caso de Ray Davies es similar, las hay muy buenas, buenas y mediocres, pero nos da una idea de la grandeza de sus autores, que tenían para dar y repartir. 
youtube
Bennett era básicamente un purista del blues, pero en esta versión parece como si quisiese aproximarse a otro Ray (Dorset), a un sonido más comercial, un poco Mungo Jerry, que ese mismo año triunfaban por todo lo alto con “In The Summertime”.
Abajo “That Mean Old Look”, funky pantanoso a lo Tony Joe White.
