Never played one, but I remember Jon Lord had one hooked up to his C3  
in some way. I am thinking "Rat Bat Blue" is probably the best  
example of that, if I'm not mistaken.

I also remember hearing one on "Yessongs" with Rick Wakeman on keys.

Got tickets to the latest Yes show here in town. Rick's son Oliver is  
handling the keyboards. I guess Rick's health is not bad, but is not  
great for doing lengthy tours. Just some stuff I read on yesworld.com  
and some of the other Yes related email lists.

I had to laugh a little as there's also Adam Wakeman. Both of Rick's  
sons are fine keyboardists.  I couldn't help but notice that Oliver  
looks a little more like Rick, though and wondered if that anything  
to do with the decision.

Who knows?
