Streaming Stars, Then and Now

David Foster was born in Liverpool, England. His family moved to Accrington, Lancashire where he attended Accrington Grammar School. At the age of 12 he heard rock and roll music and was immediately afflicted. Two years later he was in his first band, The Warriors, which later featured vocalist Jon Anderson. Foster wrote their 1964 song "Don't Make Me Blue", which the band performed in the film 'Just for You' (1964).

The Warriors split up in Germany in 1967. Back in London in late 1969, Foster and Jon Anderson teamed up and wrote the songs "Sweet Dreams" and "Time and a Word" for Anderson's band Yes.

In 1970, Foster formed the band Accrington Stanley with fellow former Warriors guitarist Rod Hill. In 1972, he formed a second short-lived band, Badger, with former Yes keyboard player Tony Kaye, recording the album "One Live Badger" at London's Rainbow Theatre in December that year.

Foster later moved to the highlands of Scotland. He made an album titled "Open Road" and wrote his autobiography, titled "Yours Is No Disgrace" after the Yes song he contributed lyrics to - albeit without credit.

Foster died on 2 November 2017, in Scotland. A celebration of his life was held at Inverness Crematorium on the afternoon of 10 November with attendees invited to wear their favorite band T-shirts.
