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

Jon Kirkman joins us this week to talk about his new Yes book, Dialogue. He reveals some fascinating things about 2017 connected with Trevor Horn which are contained in his book and it sounds like it's going to be a must-have item for serious Yes fans.

What's different about this Yes interviews book?

Is this prog?

Does it feel like a solo album?

Is there a concept?

'The Story of I' by Patrick Moraz

This week Mark and Kevin look at The Story of I by Patrick Moraz. This is the third solo album from the 75/76 collection. The 2 Pence is about Kevin and Mark's choice of solo albums after this period and there are also a couple of listener voicemails and a written review of ARW to enjoy!

Does this keyboard-based album stand the test of time?

Is there a theme or concept?

'Beginnings' by Steve Howe

Produced by Preston Frazier

This week we have reached Steve Howe's Beginnings in our survey of Yes members' solo albums. We also have a slightly exasperating 2 Pence about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and an ARW review from Ken Fuller.

Steve Howe sings all the lead vocals - why?

Does this album hang together as a coherent whole?

What would happen to ARW and Yes if the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted Yes this time?

Ramshackled by Alan White

Produced by Preston Frazier

Mark and Kevin start a series on Yes members' solo albums with the Alan White album, Ramshackled. There's also news on a new YMP Classic Feed containing the archive of older episodes and the 2 pence segment is about ARW - and it's a bit controversial...

Why is Ramshackled the least well-known of the Yes solo albums?

Is it possible to hear Alan White's influence?

What style is the record?
