Topic: Igor Khoroshev: Sexual harassment? Posted: February 18 2007 at 17:39 |
As many of you know, The Ladder is one of my favorite Yes album, and Igor Khoroshev's keyboards are featured prominently on it. I wondered why he wasn't the keyboardist on the Magnification tour, so I did some research, and it appears that he was fired for sexual harassment at a Montreal concert, backstage. I could find no further details. ...did he try to molest Jon? Anyone know?

Saw him on The Ladder tour in Boston and was quite impressed.
From what I had heard, it had to do with some underage fans in Montreal.

More than one underage fan at a Yes concert?
Too bad they ran into Igor I guess.

How would he be on the Magnification tour? He wasn't even on the album. He left after The Ladder which is why Magnifiaction has an orchestra instead of keyboards.

Exactly. I was wondering what caused him to leave Yes; if he hadn't, he would've been on that album, ne?

If it's related to underage fans, wasn't that a bit of a Wakeman thing also ? I remember reading he preferred teenagers (16 yr old). Mind you, Pimmy Jage had an american girlfriend during the mid70s, that would've reminded you of Jerry Lee's better days ...

allegedly of course....
...if you are reading this Igor sue Aaron, not us....
And Panta, 16yrs old is the age of consent in the UK.....
if this guy had been around when Igor was at school maybe this alleged misunderstanding in Montreal might never have happened...err allegedly...
