As 1971 was coming to a close, David Bowie was going through some "Changes" -- from a Dylan-inspired singer-songwriter to the space-age rock star named Ziggy Stardust. He was broke, a new father, and in desperate need of some commercial success. So he recruited a band of musicians from Northern England, including a brilliant guitarist and arranger named Mick Ronson. And together they created an album called Hunky Dory. It laid the groundwork for his big breakthrough album to follow. But it is recognized today as one of his best-ever albums. Randy Renaud has the story behind its creation on the Chronicles of Rock.

On this killer episode of Talking Guitars on Johnny Beane TV, we kick things off with a cool story straight from Guitar World—then it's full speed to the workbench
Yes has been around for more than 55 years. They've made some of the world's best progressive rock music and even had some success on the pop charts. While The Wolf was living in London, he got to see Yes at Royal Albert Hall on the Close to the Edge 50 Tour which was a special night. It was there that he truly came to appreciate the talents of Jon Davison, the lead singer who is very close in age to your hosts. A friend of the late Taylor Hawkins, he does justice to classic Yes songs from throughout the catalog. After that show, The Wolf wanted to make sure he never missed his heroes again as long as Davison was fronting the band. On October 27, the boys came to his town and not only did he attend but he brought The Wolfcub, an aspiring guitar player, to see Steve Howe do his thing live. And they both loved the show (and The Wolfcub was handed an official Steve Howe guitar string!). They performed classics throughout the catalog and then after an intermission played Fragile in it's entirety straight-through, including big hits like Roundabout and Long Distance Runaround. But fan favorites like South Side of the Sky and Heart of the Sunrise really got the diehards on their feet! Steve Howe had his time in the sun on Mood for a Day and Geoff Downes had his spotlight doing the Rick Wakeman penned Cans and Brahms. Billy Sherwood showed why Chris Squire chose him to carry on his legacy, especially on The Fish and Jay Schellen kept them all in time. For those who wouldn't go because not enough original or heyday members are still in the band, we understand your argument. But this version of Yes fronted by Jon Davison delivers solid shows doing classics you love and the big screen behind them featuring Roger Dean artwork coming to life makes for a killer night out with Yes.

And he's a proud nerd with a deep love of things like superheroes and Star Trek. He allows what has been to inform the possibilities of what can be all the while staying very true to himself and the music he creates. We discuss it all on this very special extended episode of Into The Music.

Ever bought an album just because you should love it... only to file it under "respect, but no thanks"? This week, Andrew Culture and Dr. Sam go full chin-strokey and dive deep into the bands, albums, and entire genres that make them go, "I get it. I just don't want it." We're talking Flux of Pink Indians' sonic assaults, John Zorn's sex-jazz chaos, Minutemen's minute-long jazz-punk spasms, and yes, that unholy racket from Merzbow. Along the way we also chat about Damon Albarn's trouser-based stage antics, Janis Joplin's wardrobe malfunctions, and what happens when Rick Wakeman tries to write a stadium-rock opera about Henry VIII's wives. Seriously. It's an episode filled with love for the bold, the bizarre, and the borderline unlistenable. So grab your brandy, light your pipe, and stroke your chin in a disapproving-yet-respectful fashion. What you'll learn this episode: Why Andrew would rather chew tinfoil than listen to Merzbow again What makes Dr. Sam say "this is basically an angry Jackson Pollock painting" Who wins the battle of "I admire them, but no thanks" — Apex Twin or The Minutemen? Why Flux of Pink Indians were literally banned by the police (hint: it wasn't for being catchy) The sexy noises of John Zorn and why jazz speedrunning should be a sport Plus! Music recommendations, tangents about driving in America, dodgy cod reggae, and why you should never trust someone who plays saxophone and wears a beret.
Dan and Steven chat with keyboardist Adam Parrish! Hear about his gigs and check out his site https://adamparrishmusician.wordpress.com/ He has assisted on Rick Wakeman's crew before, has seen Rick's recent shows, and has performed with Gordon Giltrap! There's also some Yes music chat, and a fun bit of info regarding his sparkling outfit!
Ouverture d'émission par un hommage, encore...Cette fois, c'est John Lodge, le bassiste des MOODY BLUES qui s'en est allé tutoyer les étoiles ce 10 octobre, il avait 82 ans. S'il n'en était pas membre fondateur, il était très vite devenu un élément essentiel suite à un changement de personnel deux ans seulement après la création du groupe qu'il rejoindra avec Justin Hayward en 1966. La musique classique s'invitera dans les compositions et arrangements de Moody Blues, direction les routes de ce qu'on appellera plus tard... le rock progressif. Extrait dans ce numéro de l'album "To Our Children's Children's Children" paru en 1969 et un titre fort à propos et composé notamment par John... Puisque nous sommes dans les légendes de sa Majesté, un certain PAUL MCCARTNEY, certes le Grand Maca ne fait pas spécialement dans le rock prog, mais c'est un touche à tout, et c'est en réécoutant cette semaine son album "Chaos And Creation In The Backyard" (l'un de mes préférés ! ) que j'ai eu envie de partager un extrait avec vous et j'ai choisi un titre somme toute, pas complètement hors de propos ici... Un (petit) YES, pour se faire plaisir avec un extrait de l'album "TORMATO" paru en 1978, dont la pochette n'est pas (pour la 2ème fois consécutive) attribuée à Roger Dean mais à Hipgnosis, célèbre collectif de graphistes anglais avec le fameux Storm Thorgerson. Mais le rendu n'était pas à la hauteur des attentes du groupe, puisque la légende veut que son claviériste Rick Wakeman mécontent du visuel proposé, lui jettera une tomate (sur le visuel, pas sur Storm ! ) L'album qui devait s'intituler "Yes Tor", deviendra un mix de "Tor" et de "Tomato" (tomate) et la pochette conservera le graphisme original gratifié de la solanacée écrasée...Yes qui par ailleurs est en pleine tournée américaine pour célébrer l'album "Fragile" et dont son vétéran, le guitariste Steve Howe, s'apprête à publier un EP vinyle en tirage très limité (qui devrait toutefois sortir sur les plateformes) consacré à Bob Dylan... En parlant d'Hipgnosis, on associe forcément ce nom à PINK FLOYD dont la quasi intégralité du catalogue est signé de cette boite mythique ! Et quand deux mythes se rencontrent : un visuel parfait pour représenter l'absence, thème d'un album majeur (voire pour beaucoup le meilleur) du Floyd, on obtient "Wish You Were Here". Vous le savez, depuis la fin de saison dernière on revient sur cet album dans l'ordre des morceaux. Depuis la rentrée nous en sommes à la face B et dans ce numéro c'est au tour de la chanson-titre d'être mise à l'honneur. Fans du groupe préparez vous à mettre la main à la poche, depuis que Sony s'est offert le catalogue des anciens de Cambridge, ils doivent chercher à rentabiliser leur investissement ! Bref, une nouvelle édition spéciale 50 ans paraîtra le 12 décembre prochain sous différent formats (CD, digital, LP, Blu-ray, coffret) avec des démos et versions inédites (en plus des quelques unes déjà parues dans la réédition de 2011) et un bootleg live à Los Angeles de 1975 restauré et remixé par un certain... Steven Wilson... Je parlais de musique classique intégrée au rock des Moody Blues, ce qui fut la même tendance chez leurs collègues du BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST qu'on réecoute toujours avec beaucoup de plaisir, ici avec un extrait de leur 2ème opus "Once Again" ce qui nous amène à l'année 1971... Pour limiter ce vertige temporel, quelques anglais contemporains mais également talentueux comme NICK FLETCHER considéré par un certain Steve Hackett (Genesis) comme le meilleur guitariste rock/jazz du Royaume de Sa Majesté, rien que ça ! Il faut dire que Nick nous entraine dans une fusion efficace, ici autour d'un concept à propos de "La Persona", théorie du psychiatre suisse, Carl Jung selon laquelle un individu présente un visage social au monde pour donner une certaine impression et cacher sa vraie nature, ce qui donne pour titre à cet album concept :"The Mask Of Sanity". C'est tout nouveau et fort recommandé par votre serviteur (qui fait de la radio pour éviter de mettre un masque ! ) Il n'y a pas que les anglais dans la vie ! La Pologne par exemple nous gratifie de belles formations rock prog que vous pouvez parfois entendre dans cette émission ! Ainsi PINN DROPP qui vient de publier son 4ème album (après un EP numérique à leur débuts en 2017). "For The Love Of Drama" est le titre de cette galette toute chaude, et là encore c'est un régal pour les cages à miel ! Et puis l'Italie, avec RANESTRANE, ce groupe formé en 1998, inspiré par leurs aînée Goblin ou PFM mais aussi par les cousins britanniques Genesis ou Marillion... Marillion dont deux représentants (le guitariste Steve Rothery et le chanteur Steve Hogarth) ont ramené leurs talents sur l'album inspiré de Stanley Kubrick et son "2001, L'Odyssée de L'Espace". Ici extrait du 1er volet de la trilogie consacrée à l'œuvre Kubrickienne : "A Space Odyssey Vol.1", paru en 2018 avec la guitare de Mr Rothery sur le titre diffusé ce soir... En France, nous ne sommes pas en reste avec deux générations dans ce numéro. Celle de ANGE, avec un 2ème extrait du tout nouvel album fort réussi "Cunégonde", album qui sera entièrement présenté au cours de la saison ! Pendant ce temps là, le groupe poursuit sa tournée "Quitter la Meute", vérifiez les dates près de chez vous. Pour notre belle région, il faudra attendre le 13 février 2026 (Tours) ou le mois de mars pour la Bretagne mais on en reparlera d'ici là ! Enfin, l'espoir de voir briller le rock progressif français passe aussi par la jeune génération et je mise notamment beaucoup sur "PLEDGE OF HEALING" dont "One Step Closer" le 1er album a fait les belles soirées d'Amarok en 2023. Fondé par Claire et Cyril, le projet ne peut et ne doit pas en rester là ! La bonne nouvelle c'est que le groupe est entré en résidence et semble avoir du boulot sur la planche...Tant mieux, je ne sais pas vous mais j'espère et rêve de connaître une suite discographique à l'aventure.... Thierry Joigny Chaque jeudi, à 20h Suivez Amarok sur Facebook également sur Instagram
We review Rick Wakeman's latest piano album, Melancholia! In Rick's own words, "Though often misunderstood as mere sadness, melancholia - as Wakeman himself notes - is more textured, more intricate. It is a temperament as much as a mood: sensitive, thoughtful, loyal, creatively driven, deeply analytical, and quietly steadfast. That richer definition lies at the heart of this album. These compositions are neither bleak nor morose. They are generous in spirit, filled with moments of light and resolve, reflecting a mind that has learned to make peace with melancholy - not to escape it, but to transmute it." Hear what we have to say about the album! And you can see the places to purchase it at https://www.rwcc.com/product.php?int_titleID=206

WBCQ/The Planet airdate - 2/8/25 Welcome to Fluxedo Junction, I'm Scott Kuchler. Each episode we bring you the best music of all genres from throughout the world, and this week we'll be speaking with legendary drummer Liberty Devitto. Widely known as the drummer for the Billy Joel band from 1976 through 1993, Liberty has also played with many of the most influential musicians in the world, including Paul McCartney, Carly Simon, Stevie Nicks, Rick Wakeman, and Meat Loaf. He's most recently been active with two different bands - The Lords Of 52nd Street, featuring other members of the classic era Billy Joel band Richie Cannata and Russell Jacobs, and the Slim Kings featuring bassist Andy Attanasio and vocalist/guitarist Michael Sackler-Berner. His book: "Liberty - Life, Billy and the Pursuit of Happiness" is available at all major booksellers and web services.
Send us a text In this episode, we dive into Drama (1980), one of the most surprising and divisive albums in the Yes catalog. With Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman gone, the band recruited Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes of The Buggles, reshaping the group's sound for a new decade. We explore the bold risks Yes took during this turbulent lineup shift, the mix of progressive rock tradition with fresh new wave energy, and the album's long-lasting legacy among fans. From the thunderous opener “Machine Messiah” to the radio-friendly “Into the Lens,” we break down what makes Drama a fascinating turning point in Yes's history.

For one of our first episodes back in 2018 (S1E3), we discussed 'Hunky Dory' by David Bowie with then co-host Barry Stock. Honestly, though, for our first 20 episodes or so we were still finding our way and weren't even playing any music clips at that point. So when this week's guest, musician David J (Bauhaus, Love and Rockets), suggested taking on Bowie's fourth studio album, we couldn't resist revisiting this stone cold classic with such a thoughtful, well-informed guest. Essential listening!

Rick Wakeman's infamous prog rock ballet was captured on video tape, and thank God. While the majority of incidents have been edited out--one skater losing her top, another unable to pull the sword from the stone, still another being a knight who has to fall on his own sword due to a lack of choreography--there's still plenty of baffling choices being backed here by Wakemans' attempt at a modern rock show about the legendary Once and Future King.

In this episode of LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl, host Scott Dudelson sits down with legendary guitarist Steve Howe of YES to explore the timeless impact of the classic 1971 YES album, "Fragile." Known for his masterful blend of acoustic and electric guitar playing, Steve shares in-depth insights on the album's creation, lasting influence and his preparation to perform the record live on tour in 2025. Listeners will be taken on a journey through the album's unique sound, characterized by clarity and innovation, and learn about the collaborative dynamics that brought tracks like "Roundabout" and "Heart of the Sunrise" to life. Steve reveals how the addition of keyboardist Rick Wakeman contributed to the album's distinctiveness and the bold artistic choices that made "Fragile" stand out. Further enriching the conversation, Steve recounts his experiences touring with iconic musicians like Delaney and Bonnie & Friends (Eric Clapton and George Harrison), and reflects on Yes's evolution as a band. From the album's striking Roger Dean cover art to the solo pieces that highlighted each band member's individual artistry, this episode offers a comprehensive look at the music and moments that defined "Fragile." Beginning in October 2025, Steve and YES will be touring and performing the album in it's entirety. Check www.yesworld.com for all tour dates If you enjoy this episode please follow, like and rate.

Most casual Yes fans aren't familiar with their 1980 release Drama. After 8 years of gold and platinum releases, Drama failed to sell as well as its 70s prog counterparts like Close To The Edge or Fragile. When they went to the south of France to record in late 1979, it was the most celebrated Yes lineup of Jon Anderson (vocals), Chris Squire (Bass), Steve Howe (guitars), Rick Wakeman (keyboards) and Alan White (drums), Coming off two solid efforts in Going For The One and Tormato, there was strong interest in the band, especially in America where they'd prebooked a tour including 3 sold out shows at Madison Square Garden. However, factions took over and cracks were exposed in the harmony of the band. Howe, White and Squire would come later and bring producer Roy Thomas Baker with them. Those four would dismiss the airy and ethereal efforts of Wakeman and Anderson in favor of their own heavy and proggy riffs. After Alan White injured himself roller skating with Richard Branson (as one does), the retreated back to England but Anderson and Wakeman had had enough and they left the band. Under the same management of Brian Lane and using the same studios were The Buggles, Geoff Downes (Keyboards) and Trevor Horn (vocals) vehicle for their worldwide hit Video Killed The Radio Star. Chris Squire invited them in to help write some songs but really, he wanted them in the band. Though Trevor Horn was reluctant to try to replicate Jon Anderson's high pitched vocals, they eventually joined and recorded Drama. Critics said it sounded remarkably like Yes, maybe more than they expected. But while Trevor's vocals aren't an exact match of Anderson's, they do hit that high register and the work by the musicians of Yes is off the charts strong. Tempus Fugit is a quintessential Yes song and Run Through The Light gives Trevor something closer to his own range while Geoff modernizes Yes' sound. Many Yes fans decided that no Anderson and No Wakeman meant No Thanks. But Drama has aged well and even the Roger Dean cover, which was never a big favorite of The Wolf compared to most all he did with Yes and Asia, is something that grows on you. This is a hidden gem in the Yes catalog, one that The Wolf includes among his favorite Yes albums. Give it a chance, see if you agree. * And if you can get the 2004 remaster do so - it sounds great and has lots of bonus tracks including some from the Anderson/Wakeman sessions.

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week Mark and I had all sorts of fun thinking about whether there are any short Yes epics - or if this idea is even possible. We set ourselves the restriction of only choosing Yes songs less than 6mins in duration so can you guess what we came up with and how we justified our choices? It was sad to hear that Ozzy Osbourne died this week, only a few weeks after performing his last ever concert with his Black Sabbath bandmates. I can't say I was a dedicated fan of Ozzy or Sabbath but my introduction to heavy metal was when a friend of mine took me up to his room in a slightly creepy Victorian mansion and played me the self-titled album by the Birmingham band. How appropriate the setting was. I also learned to play Paranoid on the drums when I was a teenager and my younger son taught my daughter, when she was a toddler, to sing the alphabet to the riff from War Pigs. My elder son was a true fan so he was upset when we heard the news. As you know if you've read the new Tales book or get your information from many other sources like Matthew Paine on Facebook, Rick Wakeman was a huge fan of Ozzy who he met at Morgan Studios while Yes were recording Tales. He ended up playing keys on 2 songs on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath which was being recorded over the road in another Morgan studio at the time. Eventually, Ozzy returned the favour by singing on Rick's "The Return to the Center of the Earth", as pointed out by Paul Graf also on Facebook. Our own Doug Curran interviewed Ozzy for his radio show in 1981 so do make a point of reading his reflections on that on the YMP Facebook discussion group Rest in Peace Ozzy. https://www.quora.com/What-makes-epic-songs-epic https://youtu.be/YGsq3ya1-8Y?si=_4zjczWxt3grbwzH https://youtu.be/UF2P_qgi7YA?si=n9Vbim5fGeLPjfEN https://youtu.be/63nZud3Xu1Y?si=Y0PMEIxL5dxYXNHS https://youtu.be/CBtZ8exhRPQ?si=rt0xacK2W8SeZXl4 https://youtu.be/8-hJFoSgXfM?si=OTCdWuAB7U2zg-1- https://youtu.be/qEUkRRLe6vQ?si=SwOTImHn3DIXFIYe Yes - The Tormato Story & Tales from Topographic Oceans - Yes Album Listening Guide Available now!

Although this album was the fourth Elton John studio album, it was also the third album released in 1971. John had released a film soundtrack album and a live album previously in the year. Madman Across the Water is a more progressive album than his previous outings, containing nine tracks with all but the final track exceeding four minutes. Elton John also had Yes keyboardist Rick Wakeman sit in on the sessions for two of the tracks, playing Hammond organ. Although it went to number 8 on the US Billboard 200 chart, it did not do as well in his native UK. The mediocre results in England may be partly explained by the song lengths not fitting nicely into the 3-minute span typical of singles. Nevertheless, the album contains two singles which would prove to be amongst John's greatest hits. Contemporary critics had mixed reactions to the prog rock bent of the album, with some finding the lyrics confusing and the album as a whole too deep for new fans. As with much of the discography of music icons like Elton John, reviews would trend more positive over time. Madman Across the Water finds Elton John on the cusp of his ascent to superstardom, when his next several albums would trend towards a glam rock approach and would start regularly topping the charts.Original host Brian Dickhute returns to "What the Riff" studios to help us finish off our podcast series focusing on the Months from 1965 to 1995. Tiny DancerThe lead off track takes its inspiration from two places. Generally, it is inspired by the spirit of the women Bernie Taupin met in California, and how their styles contrasted with those in the U.K at the time. More specifically it references Maxine Feibelman, who really was the "seamstress for the band," and supported John's elaborate stage costume style. Feibelman and Taupin were married in March 1971, with Elton John serving as best man.LevonThe first single from the album tells the story of Levon, a man who is successful in the family business, but trapped in his lifestyle. "Levon wears his war wound like a crown." This symphonic piece uses a backing orchestra written, arranged, and conducted by Paul Buckmaster. Madman Across the WaterThe title track to the album was originally supposed to be a track on John's previous studio album, but it was rearranged for this album. The lyrics are about a man in a coastal mental institution who doesn't know if he belongs there or not. Many have speculated that Taupin wrote this about then President Richard Nixon, speculation to which Taupin responds, "That is genius. I could never have thought of that."Indian SunsetThe story about an American Indian warrior on the verge of defeat was inspired by Frederic Remington painting and/or a visit that Bernie Taupin paid to a reservation. John has stated that the song is not a protest song, but a story. The opening acapella verse sets the wistful tone of the rest of the song. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main theme from the children's television series “Electric Company""Hey you guys!" This children's educational show debuted in 1971. STAFF PICKS:Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey by Paul and Linda McCartneyBruce begins the staff picks with a song from "Ram," the only album attributed to Paul and Linda McCartney. It reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in September 1971, making it the first post-Beatles McCartney single to top the US charts. It is actually a compilation of several song fragments assembled by engineer Eirik Wangberg. The lyric "hands across the water/heads across the sky" refers to Linda and Paul being American and British.Rain Dance by the Guess WhoRob brings us a song penned by Burton Cummings and Kurt Winter which was the lead-off track from the Guess Who's eighth studio album, "So Long, Bannatyne." Randy Bachman had departed the band by this time. Many of the lyrics reference landmarks or businesses in their native Winnipeg, Canada. You Say It by Al GreenWayne's staff pick is a fusion of funk and soul off Al Green's third studio album. Green got his start at the age of nine in a gospel quartet. The lyrics from this song discuss the difficulties a guy has in picking up the phone to call his girl. Al Green became a minister in 1976 and returned to gospel music in the mid-80's.I'd Love to Change the World by Ten Years AfterLynch features a song that is the sole top-40 single from the British blues rock group in the U.S., peaking at number 40 on the Billboard Hot 100. The lyrics express the frustration of the counter culture movement in wanting to change the world, but realizing that solutions are harder to reach than thought.Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves by CherBrian finishes out the episode with a story from Cher. The lyrics are told from the perspective of a Gypsy girl born to a dancer in a traveling show. When she is 16, she becomes pregnant from a young stranger who runs off, leaving her to raise a baby girl in the same situation as her mother raised her.

Guitarist Gordon Giltrap joins us for an interview about his EP Starfield, which you can get here: https://www.giltrap.co.uk/cds/f/CDs/6230/ Yes fans may also know Giltrap collaborated with Rick Wakeman on their 2010 album From Brush & Stone, as well as with Oliver Wakeman on 2013's Ravens & Lullabies, even performing together on what was later released as From a Stage.

Scottish pop-rock legend David Paton is one of the most quietly influential musicians of the past fifty years. Born and raised in Edinburgh, David made his mark as the founder, lead singer, bassist, and chief songwriter for the 70s pop band Pilot — the group behind the timeless hits “Magic” and “January.” These catchy, melodic tracks flew up the UK Singles Charts in 1974 and 1975, cementing Pilot's place in the classic pop-rock hall of fame.Pilot began when David, fresh from playing in local Scottish bands and even a short stint with the Bay City Rollers, teamed up with the late Billy Lyall, a fellow ex-Bay City Roller and brilliant keyboardist. With guitarist Ian Bairnson and drummer Stuart Tosh, Pilot quickly gained attention for their crisp harmonies, soaring hooks, and the polish of producer Alan Parsons, who helped shape their signature studio sound.At their peak, Pilot was more than a one-hit wonder. Their debut album From the Album of the Same Name (1974) and the follow-up Second Flight (1975) gave pop fans not just “Magic” but the No.1 UK single “January,” a song that topped the charts for three weeks. The band's unique blend of soft rock, glam pop, and radio-friendly hooks made them stand out in a crowded 70s scene.Though lineup changes and industry missteps led to Pilot's split by 1977, their legacy has endured. David Paton, the creative force behind the hits, went on to carve out an impressive career as a vocalist, bassist, and songwriter for other iconic acts. He played a vital role in The Alan Parsons Project, lending his vocals and bass to albums like Tales of Mystery and Imagination and I Robot, and fronted the progressive rock band Camel, where his vocals on “Heroes” from The Single Factor still mesmerise fans today.David's talents didn't stop there. As a sought-after session musician, he played bass on Elton John's hit “Nikita” and toured with Elton, worked alongside Kate Bush, Rick Wakeman, Jimmy Page, and even folk legends like Phil Cunningham and Dick Gaughan. His solo work reflects his Scottish roots too — with hauntingly beautiful arrangements of traditional songs by Robert Burns and Sir Walter Scott.Still writing, recording, and performing, David's latest album, Communication (2024), shows that his knack for melody and emotional connection is as strong as ever. His autobiography, Magic: The David Paton Story, gives fans an honest, often funny look behind the curtain — from Pilot's dizzying success to the reality of life as an unsung rock hero.If you love timeless pop hooks, Scottish rock history, and the real story behind a band that gave us one of the catchiest songs ever written, dive deeper into the world of David Paton and Pilot — and experience the Magic for yourself.I know you'll enjoy the story of David Paton and relish the contribution he's made with his music.

Episode 169 Chapter 28, Moog Analog Synthesizers, Part 2. Works Recommended from my book, Electronic and Experimental Music Welcome to the Archive of Electronic Music. This is Thom Holmes. This podcast is produced as a companion to my book, Electronic and Experimental Music, published by Routledge. Each of these episodes corresponds to a chapter in the text and an associated list of recommended works, also called Listen in the text. They provide listening examples of vintage electronic works featured in the text. The works themselves can be enjoyed without the book and I hope that they stand as a chronological survey of important works in the history of electronic music. Be sure to tune-in to other episodes of the podcast where we explore a wide range of electronic music in many styles and genres, all drawn from my archive of vintage recordings. There is a complete playlist for this episode on the website for the podcast.

Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller This week Mark and I consider the conflicting aspects of Rick Wakeman's musical character. We have both chosen one piece of sublime and one piece of ridiculous Wakeman playing on a Yes record or on a live recording. What will we choose? Listen on to find out and then supply your own examples via the comments below. What were Rick Wakeman's best contributions to Yes? What did he do that was more 'questionable'? How should he be rated?
