Yes Awards
Lee Gately
I can find. What awards has YES or it's individual members been honored
with since 1969? We have a little list going, but we need more:

If there's an award like "Greatest Concert Attendance" and a ranked list
follows, we'd like to know whose company YES was in, so the information
has more meaning. Here are the few items we've gathered so far, without
great detail:

Best Group - Yes
Best LP Cover - Yessongs
NME 1974
Best LP Cover - Relayer
Melody Maker 1974

You might want to include the category of each nomination; the first
two were "Best Rock Instrumental" and the last "Best Long-Form Video"
if I remember correctly.

My memory is telling me that "Amazing Grace" from the 9012Live album was
nominated for Best Rock Instrumental that year.

Yes, although as I said, my memory *may* be playing tricks on me. I also seem
to remember that an instrumental by the Art of Noise actually won that year.
Why can I remember this errata, while other more important items slip through
my synapes?
Must be all the heavy drinking...
