The Yes Music Podcast has over 250 episodes so I have had to split the feed into two parts. This is one with the older episodes, the other one is the current episode feed.
Just some of the prizes up for grabs! Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier Well, here we are at episode 400 and as a result we are going to break the structure of the episode for one week only because we have 2 major pieces of content for you - an interview with a certain musician you will certainly recognise (OK, it's our own, Billy Sherwood!) and then our epic 400th episode quiz to win a ridiculous number of Yes and Yes related items. Billy Sherwood joins us this week! Photo by William Mulryne Billy talks about his new album - and about Yes! Listen and let us know what you think! Who will win the prizes?How did Billy approach his new album?Was playing on the Talk tour just like the Royal Affair Tour?

Song of Seven Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week Mark and I discuss the next musician to leave the band, Jo Anderson and what he did next. In the first part of our feature, we talk a little about the reasons Jon left in 1980 and the first solo record he released after leaving, Song of Seven. We will return to a more in-depth look at the album itself in a couple of weeks’ time. We are gearing up for next week’s 400th episode of the show which will feature a great interview with someone you’ll recognise as well as an epic competition to win lots of Yes and Yes related items. You’ll need to have your Yes thinking caps on to stand a chance of winning something. Lots more on that next week. Listen and let us know what you think! Were you expecting Jon's second solo album to be Olias 2?If so were you upset?What's this album like though?

Gates and Tim Morse's Yesstories Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier, Bill Govier and VR Hoisington This week we have a slightly different format to the episode. Mark and I enjoyed listening to three different live versions of Gates of Derilium a few weeks ago but we didn’t get around to posting our thoughts - so that’s what you’ll hear first. Then, we did a great interview with Yes book author, Tim Morse, this week for the Patreon community and I wanted to include some of that here because Tim once collaborated with Jon Anderson and also recently released his third solo album so there’s plenty to learn about him. So I’ve clipped out a few parts of our conversation to play here and if you want to see the complete video of our chat, complete with various drinking vessels and Tim’s cat, you need to head over to Patreon. If you are already a patron, it’s all there for you and if you have yet to join in, you can do that at the same time. Listen and let us know what you think! What do different performances of Gates sound like?What Jon Anderson piece did Tim Morse work on?Is Tim going to update his great book, Yesstories?

Ken Fuller's gift! Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week Mark and I take a look at Trevor Rabin’s collection of demos and early versions entitled 90124.

Syndestructible Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier In our somewhat delayed episode, Mark and I speak to The Syn front man, Steve Nardelli this week. It was an amazing conversation which delved deeply into all parts of The Syn's story including a residency at The Marquee Club, supporting Jimi Hendrix, inventing the Rock Opera, trying to get Chris Squire to turn up to gigs on time and the influence of Peter Banks amongst many other topics. Also this week, I announce the dramatic changes to the Yes Music Podcast which are planned for 2019. You can't afford to miss this information. Next year is going to be very special. What were Chris Squire and Peter Banks like to work with? Which Welsh icon was kind to the band? Why couldn't The Syn get out of their dressing room on the night Jimi Hendrix came to town?

Yesterday and Today Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week Mark and I speak at length and in depth to Dave Kerzner all about his Yes 50th Tribute Album Yesterday and Today which we reviewed a couple of weeks ago. Do listen right to the end of the interview because Dave also shares a tiny snippet of his forthcoming album which features, amongst many others, Jon Davison on lead vocals - and bass? Dave tells us about the remarkable concept for the new album and the story which underpins it - it’s fascinating stuff. Why did Dave choose these Yes songs? Who was he unable to persuade to take part? What's Dave new album all about? Listen to the episode then let us know what you think!

A Life in Yes Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week we listen to Billy Sherwood’s excellent Chris Squire Tribute album, A life in Yes. We also discuss what Anderson, Rabin and Wakeman could have brought to that album if things had been very different - which is a topic suggested by Steven Shinder and not Daniel Krohn as I say later on in the episode - sorry Steven.

Yessongs - the movie Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier Yessongs the movie - a different beast to the album of the same name, this is an iconic record of the band arguably at their peak.

Tormato! Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier Tormato, undeniably the greatest Yes album ;-) celebrated 40 years recently. So this week, Mark and I listen again to the much-maligned record to try and find out what everyone else seems to hate. We also dedicate our 2 pence to the 1978 'classic'. Was the production really that bad? Are there any aspects people who don't listen are missing out on? Are there any decent songs? Listen to the episode then let us know what you think!

Mark's Tormato Friday Music Vinyl photos: DBA (Downes Braide Association) Perform Debut live show at Trading Boundaries on 28th Sept & Announce release of Remixed version of Suburban Ghosts DBA - Skyscraper Souls Geoff Downes and Chris Braide 26th September 2018: DBA (Downes Braide Association) perform their first ever live show at Trading Boundaries on Friday 28th September, with a special showcase for their latest album Skyscraper Souls. The evening is sponsored by Prog Magazine. DBA is the musical collaboration between the legendary Geoff Downes and Chris Braide who joined forces as the result of their close friendship and passion for music. Bass player Andy Hodge, who worked on the Skyscraper Souls album will be joining DBA on the night. Other guests at Trading Boundaries will include David Longdon (Big Big Train) and David Colquhoun (Francis Dunnery, Go West). Barney Ashton Bullock (poet, songwriter; Andy Bell; Marc Almond) will be doing the narrative on the night. DBA also announce the release of a remixed version of their critically acclaimed 2015 album Suburban Ghosts 2018 on 30th November. The album features new musicians and is remixed by Chris Braide and mastered by Mike Pietrini. Joining original band members Chris Braide (vocals, programming, piano, bass guitar, electric guitar, keyboards) and Geoff Downes – (programming, piano and keyboards) on the remix are: Patrick Howley - electric guitar, Dave Gregory - slide guitar, Lee Pomeroy - bass guitar, Andy Hodge - bass guitar and on Drums - Ash Soan. Wherever musical history is made, Geoff Downes is there. From the first video ever shown on MTV, The Buggles’ Video Killed the Radio Star, Geoff continues to gain acclaim and break musical ground. He is a founding member of Asia whose album of the same name was the biggest selling in the world in 1982. Together with vocalist/bassist, the late John Wetton, they propelled the band’s global success. With the legendary YES, Geoff joined for the critically acclaimed album ‘Drama’ in 1980 and then re-joined for ‘Fly From Here’ in 2011. He continues to tour with both YES and Asia. Christopher Braide is a multi-instrumentalist, Ivor Novello award-winning songwriter and producer who is based in Los Angeles. He is known for his outstanding work with Sia, Lana Del Rey, Beyoncé, Christina Aguilera, Marc Almond, David Guetta and many more. GQ magazine named him one of the most successful and influential men in the music industry under 40, and he continues to work with A-listers on both sides of the Atlantic. DBA is a labour of love for both Downes and Braide and together they form a unique combination. They have produced three critically acclaimed albums with ‘Skyscraper Souls’ being their most ambitious yet, it features the talents not only of the principals but also guest stars Marc Almond, Kate Pierson (B-52s), Andy Partridge (XTC), Ash Soan (The Voice) and David Longdon (Big Big Train). Chris Braide states: “Working with Geoff on the Skyscraper Souls album and its two predecessors has reacquainted me with the kind of music I love. Epic and euphoric.
Songs from Tsongas DVD Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week Mark and I have been considering Songs From Tsongas in order to re-live the last time Howe, White, Anderson and Wakeman were together on stage along with the late great Chris Squire. With the recent ARW and Yes live offerings perhaps only offering us part of the story, does Songs from Tsongas now seem like the full picture? Was it better when the 'classic' lineup were with us?

Rick Wakeman returned and Going for the One was created. We listened to the studio recordings and the live recordings of the three Going for the One songs on Yesshows and discussed what happened when Yes changed once again. There's also time for a two pence segment on the newly-release YouTube video of the first full song from Yes featuring ARW's forthcoming release - Live at the Apollo. Wakeman returns - how does it go? Are we back to progressive rock rather then the jazz-fusion influenced Relayer? How do the new songs sound live?
