    One of the most beautiful piano pieces ever... when I was going to college I would wake and play this song over and over again to start my day back in the early 80’s
    RIP John

      John's voice was perfect

    When I was a kid in high school, I would listen to the local college radio station every morning before leaving for school. One morning this song came on. I SCRAMBLED to turn on my tape deck and record it! I got most of it. I would play this song for DOZENS of musicians (I play keyboards) and people who were basically "music encyclopedias". Nobody had the slightest idea who it was, nor had anyone ever heard the song!!! For DECADES I searched for this song. Then one day I told my wife about a snippet of the lyrics. She HATES all music except old fashioned country music. However, she searched the internet and casually told me later in the week, "That song you've been searching for is called 'Rendevous 6:02' by a band called 'UK'". I didn't believe her, but upon looking it up . . . This is one of those songs that sticks with us for our entire lives. I sit in the dark and play it over and over. Thank you, John Wetton and UK - RIP!

    This piece is just stunning and let's not leave out Eddie Jobson's superb accompaniment. So many of these wonderful musicians are leaving us - but they leave a superb legacy of real music which, sadly, our younger folk will miss unless we educate them! I know that sound pompous, but we are lucky to have had these guys from our time and still luckier that we have the means to preserve their work. God bless them.

    Can't believe I did a 2 week tour of Germany and Vienna opening for Saga (right around this time of year, 26 years ago.
    We opened the show (my band was called Britton) and Saga closed. In the middle was Mr Wetton and his acoustic guitar. I would stand off the stage at the side and watch him very time he came on. I used to have breakfast with him every morning. He was such a nice guy and a BRILLIANT musician. Godspeed, John Wetton. Time flies...

    It's five o'clock
    Driving down Park Lane
    As London leaves
    The weekend again
    Through the dark citystreets
    And the clinging rain
    I take my car towards the Thames
    And Waterloo
    Rendez-vous, 6: 02
    Rendez-vous, 6: 02
    Is that a face I saw?
    No, just a trick of light
    It's getting clearer now
    We're moving out of sight
    It's cold and late
    And I can't miss that train
    I turn around, walk through the arch
    Of Waterloo
    Rendez-vous, 6: 02
    Rendez-vous, 6: 02
    I see that same wooded face
    It backens me from the gate
    Did you not know, my friend
    Two years ago, watch the end
    After the war
    Waterloo was no more
    But your ticket states
    There is one train
    It's leaving now
    There is a place
    Remember my face
    And Waterloo

    I was lucky enough to see them live way back when they opened for Jethro Tull at the Oakland Coliseum. It was without Holdsworth but Holy Shit. Alaska into Time to kill sounded just like the Live album but loud and powerful. Watching Terry Bozzio leap at those China Pang Cymbals was breath taking. I wanted to play every UK tune I could learn (I play keys). Steve Smith, the drummer for journey was there that night as well and commented that it was one of the best shows he had ever seen. His other one was seeing Bonzo with Zeppelin. UK was an amazing band to see back then

    John Wetton. Uno de mis referentes musicales a lo largo de mi vida desde la época de King Crimson.
    Esta canción es inmortal. Me trae el recuerdo de cuando era joven y compré el segundo disco de UK, "Danger Money".
    También les recomiendo que escuchen el primer disco de UK, y el que se grabó Bill Bruford, "One of a Kind". Imprescindibles en la historia del jazz/rock progresivo por ser para mí unas obras únicas en la historia de este estilo musical.
