One of the best drummers ever.

I'm going to see them next month and got an email yesterday saying he wasn't going to be playing with them on their tour which starts in Glasgow. 

When Bill Bruford left to join King Crimson I was worried that Yes wouldn’t be the same without him. Instead Alan White drummed with Yes during their most creative period and their various incarnations until now. Sad loss.

Had the pleasure of meeting him once , well I say meeting , I was in a room he thanked his hosts and then he disappeared.
This famous quote sums Lester up 

A good jockey doesn’t need orders and a bad jockey couldn’t carry them out , so it’s best not to give them any .

Lester pigott rode in a different era if the money was down he made sure he won(he was partial to a wee brown envelope),nowadays he would get banned as his treatment of some of the horses he rode bordered on cruelty.The whip rule would see him banned for months at a time
