Jon Anderson - Animation

Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

It's back to the 1980s this week as we listen to Jon Anderson's third solo album, Animation. The two pence is about Roger Dean and his influence over the Yes music buying population.

Is Animation prog?

Would you buy a Yes album without a Roger Dean cover?

Levin Torn White album 2011

Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

We enjoy listening to music neither of us has heard previously and which combines Yes (Alan White) with King Crimson (Tony Levin). It's an amazing album and well worth the time and effort to listen! Then we are joined by none other than Jeremy North for a 2 pence discussion all about when it would have been best for Yes to call it a day...you'll need to listen to understand why we were talking about this!

What kind of music do this supergroup create?

Instrumental prog rock - why?

If yes had given up after Close to the Edge, what would you miss?...and many other questions!

Bill Bruford book

Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

It was brilliant to be able to welcome Preston Frazier to the podcast this week to talk about Bill Bruford and Alan White. Mark and Kevin join with Preston to review the two drummers' contribution to the music of Yes over the years.

Which drummer is your favourite Yes skinman?

Could Bruford have carried on in Yes?

What about Union live and 'those' Simmons drums?

As it's half term holiday in the UK this week, I haven't been able to add all the 'bells and whistles' such as news and in-depth analysis to this episode but there was time to speak to bass maestro, Miguel Falcao, and Mark about Yes music and why it endures. Mark also reviews another Flash album - 'Out of Our Hands'. Back to normal next week I hope!

What is it about Yes music which means it has lasted for almost 50 years?

What will make it endure further?

What makes Yes music special?

A whole lot of Fish!

Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

This week it was great to welcome long-time listener, Ken Fuller, onto the show. We listen to the bass master-work, The Fish, and its second iteration, Whitefish, from a variety of different Yes periods. We had a great time!

Which version is better?

Bruford or White?

How good was Squire?

My 90125 and 9012Live collection

Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

We were delighted to welcome Joost Maglev onto the show this week to discuss 9012Live from 1985. We all really enjoyed this fantastic live concert film and the 80s fashions it contains! Mark also reviews the Patrick Moraz album 'Syrinx - Coexistence'.

How does the band look and sound on this film?

Is ARW the same as Yes in the Rabin era?

How did selling millions of records affect the live show?

The Steve Howe Album

Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

We finish off listening to The Steve Howe Album this week and there's a bit of a difference of opinion about it! The two pence segment is about the news that Billy Sherwood is working on a new Yes live album and Mark reviews Trevor Rabin's solo outing, 'Wolf'. Plenty to get your teeth into...

Is side two as good as side one?

How do the orchestral arrangements work?

Who is this Vivaldi bloke anyway?

The Steve Howe Album

Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

After looking at Yes keyboardists for a while, we are turning our attention to guitarists and this week we listen to side 1 of The Steve Howe Album. There's also a two pence about the 50th Anniversary and Mark reviews Flash's second record, 'In the Can'.

Does this album sound like Yes?

Who are the guest musicians?

How many guitars does Steve use?
