Some news about the new Yes album has trickled out via Prog Magazine and the web! Titled Mirror to the Sky, this album is slated for a May 19, 2023 release. We'll go over the info that has come out about it, including the team behind it, the formats, and the tracklist. And we'll go over our thoughts on the album art and our expectations for the music.

We remember Peter Banks ten years after his passing, as well as Chris Squire, who would've turned 75 on March 4, and we also talk about Billy Sherwood in honor of his upcoming birthday. We'll mention recent tribute posts and talk about some of the material we've heard each of these musicians on, including a little bit of Pink Floyd tribute albums discussion (with Dark Side of the Moon now 50 this month).
