I’m sad to hear the news of Alan White’s passing. He was a lovely person and a terrific drummer. My thoughts go out to his wife Gigi and to everyone in Yes.

Aw man what a day -

first Ray Liotta and now Alan White.

I’ll listen to Lennon’s “Imagine” album tonight in his honor – and then watch Goodfellas.

RIP gentlemen, condolences to the families/friends. https://t.co/2II45g0Epd

Dear friend & incredible drummer Alan White has left us way too soon. He was one of the most down to earth people I’ve known. When you next hear “Imagine” or “Jealous Guy” by John think of Alan as you hear his masterful playing. And all his wonderful work with Yes. RIP❤️

You get a text telling you that Alan White, the iconic YES drummer has passed on, then open up Twitter, only to find that actor Ray Liotta has ALSO died. What’s THAT LIKE?! Can SOMEBODY tell me what The Actual F*ck is Going ON right now?!! 🌹🌹R.I.P.

Alan White

Alan was a good friend and he will be missed by us all. I have been on many tours with Alan over the years. I will miss our chats and most of all I will miss him. My thoughts and love go out to all his family.

Alan White RIP. One of the greatest drummers ever. All the Asia family send love to Gigi and the family. Alan was a great friend of Asia, particularly @asiageoff and regularly sharing birthday celebrations with our @officialjwettonhttps://t.co/rOvf8kXSeB

Saddened to hear about the passing of Yes drummer, Alan White. This pic was November 2019 at Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp. Ironic and somewhat beautiful that he’s sitting beneath the words “give you rest”.
Rest Peacefully my friend. 💙🙏🏻 pic.twitter.com/gOnAeYj6jl

I was so sad to hear about the passing of Alan yesterday. He was such a gentle soul...except when behind his drum kit where he was so powerful and creative. I will miss you brother

Alan White was a wonderful drummer who was an essential part of the sound of ‘Imagine’, ‘Instant Karma!’ & more recordings. He was always gentle, kind & good humoured. We were blessed he was part of our family.
Love & condolences to Gigi, Jesse & Cassi White; JJ, Ellie & Andrea. pic.twitter.com/yrNFh0PQmy

Still heartbroken over the passing of Alan White. Here’s a classic photo of Transatlantic hanging out at “Club Yes” w Alan & Chris Squire while on tour in Germany back in 2001. White-Fish are finally reunited & jamming together again in R&R Heaven 🙏 #RIPAlanWhite#RIPChrisSquirepic.twitter.com/re11Fx2Oj0
