Jon's health problem is manageable after an operation--he still can't keep up a full time pace and does a concert here and there--he also asked to be let in Yes earlier this year and would re-jion with Davidson And Downes in the band and was rejected---I like FFH---I don't like mock prog like Glass Hammer---Besides Keys and Mag many albums led by Jon have been mediocre at best---but it seems that a special event which includes Jon A may happen if it can be arranged---Personally I think  most of solo Jon A sucks---he is no great solo artist and has always needed Howe Squire, Bruford, White, Wakeman and Moraz to co-create the masterpieces (or even Vangelis)---a Garbriel or Hackett he is not. I thiink both Drama and FFH are both proper Yes albums and do not include Jon A. Are they in the same league as 70's Yes---? no but not too many prog giants created masterpieces after the 70's.
