Podcasts about yes music podcast

This week I report back on my trip to see Jon Anderson and the Band Geeks at Symphony Hall, Birmingham. As you'll hear, I had a wonderful time and met some old and new friends. I also find time to torture Mark by making im answer the quiz questions from last week. See if you can do better than him. After he has a go, I reveal the winner of the competition to win a CD copy of the expanded From A Page album. How is Jon's voice? Was it a fun evening? How did the Band Geeks play? Do leave your comments on the show notes for this week over on Yesmusicpodcast.com 

This week Mark and I embark on a little navel-gazing. It's the first part of our celebrations of 15 years of the Yes Music Podcast and we look back to what YMP was up to and what Yes were doing 5, 10 and 15 years ago. We remind ourselves of several things we had forgotten, get trapped for a short time in a rabbit hole when I mention my new copy of Olias of Sunhillow and reminisce about how poor my presentation skills were when I started the podcast back in 2011. It's amazing that YMP still exists after all these years and it certainly wouldn't without your support and dedication to the world's greatest progressive rock band and the world's longest-running Yes podcast. When did Mark join the YMP team? Does it seem like years since the episodes we mention? Is Jon Anderson still a prog god?

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Doug Curran and Jeffrey Crecelius This week Mark and I listened to 2 medleys - the Big Medley from the The Word Is Live box set, recorded on 5th October 1978 at The Forum, Inglewood and a recording of Jon Anderson and The New Life Band playing their Yes medley in 1980 at The Royal Albert Hall from a BBC recording broadcast the same year.  Yes Medley - Jon Anderson - Royal Albert Hall Event 1980  The Big Medley (Time & a Word, Long Distance, Survival,The Fish, Perpetual & Soon) (Inglewood 1978) It was a very entertaining process and, as you'll hear, Mark has a particularly interesting reaction to the rather different style of the New Life Band's interpretations, on a tour that Jon Anderson arranged to promote his recently-released second solo album, Song of Seven. Having just left Yes for the first time, he ended up being out on tour at the same time as the Yeggles version of Yes, who boasted Geoff Downes and Trevor Horn as part of their (fairly hastily assembled) lineup. For his part, Anderson collected together brilliant musicians but with a rather different instrumentation to the classic rock band arrangement. The Big Medley wasn't played on The Drama Tour (unfortunately, some would say) so we can't compare these two performances directly, but they are very close in time. What songs were included in each medley? How does the New Life Band instrumentation work? Which ends up being a better Yes medley (and do we even make a decision on that)? Do take a listen to the recordings I have embedded into the show notes for this week and let us know what you think in the comments over at YesMusicPodcast.com  

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week, we start a new series of episodes in preparation for the forthcoming book Master of Images - Barry Plummer's Yes Legacy. One of the most intriguing sets of photos shared with me by Barry shows some kind of an event in 1981 with Rick Wakeman, shortly after he left Yes. I've added a couple of the shots (heavily watermarked) into the show notes for this week's episode but the whole set will be available in what is shaping up to be a very interesting book. Mark and I discuss the photos as well as the associated album. Let us know what you think of it via the comments on Yes Music Podcast.com What is Rick doing underground? Who is with him? Most importantly - why?

This time we once again talk about the band Yes and one of their most ambitious works, 1973's Tales From Topographic Oceans. Kevin Mulryne (Yes Music Podcast) is the author of a new book, Tales From Topographic Oceans: Yes Album Listening Guide, and we talked about not only what went into the making of the album, but how Kevin went about researching and putting together his book, which helps the listener gain new understanding  about this classic work. Kevin is a Yes expert and musician himself, and we had fun delving into the many stories about an album that divides some Yes fans while inspiring others.   Check out Kevin's Yes Music Podcast:  https://yesmusicpodcast.com/ Purchase Kevin's Tales From Topographic Oceans - Yes Album Listening Guide:  https://www.amazon.com/Tales-Topographic-Oceans-Album-Listening/dp/1739213343/ref=sr_1_1?crid=21Z2Y15W37FKJ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.HoKD3obRoD2WP0HA1RFqS6lH03nW-28KoxJAKtc3jZzb-cdPWaa7qcx1ebb0CulWymeY9GGJsVGxyNtcwVJnNhWIj6Dxsi84ziyMgC4FT2A.F3hl-l5qPdB1UTQp8CgaiAF6DYzoW8Kj96efIatuszk&dib_tag=se&keywords=yes+tales+from+topographic+oceans&qid=1769958934&s=books&sprefix=yes+tales+from+topographic+oceans%2Cstripbooks%2C118&sr=1-1

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius Mark and I return for the first time in the 15th year of the YMP this week to discuss some of what we believe are the most important aspects of the classic Chris Squire solo album, Fish Out Of Water. I do mention that it's 50 years since its release but, as you probably know, we are a bit late to the party. The official release date was November 1975 but that doesn't affect any of the points we make in our conversation. As we didn't celebrate the real 50th anniversary, we are making up for that today. Do let us know what your thoughts are on this amazing record by leaving a comment in the show notes for this week. What makes this album so good? Is it the best Yes member solo album? Who else was involved? Let us know what you think in the comments over at YesMusicPodcast.com  

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius Well, here we are - 14 years and 700 episodes of the Yes Music Podcast. Thank you to Miguel Falcão who has created the new jingles for 700 episodes and thank you to everyone who has sent messages of congratulation. I've inserted the audio ones fairly randomly throughout the show but I'll start with a few written ones. Over on Twitter or X, Oliver Wakeman said, "A fantastic achievement. I've been fortunate to be a guest on a number of occasions. Congratulations!" Thank you Oliver. Julio Scissors (@captainjellico) said, "Congrats!  Love your show!" and Jon Anderson pic of the day (@JonAndersonpic1) also said, "Congrats!" Thank you both. As you'll hear, Mark and I had an enjoyable conversation about a particular Yes 700 topic and then there's some actual music from Steve Howe. Stay tuned for that! What Yes '700' topic have we come up with? Who has sent messages of congratulation? What Steve Howe music do we play?

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week Mark and I took a careful look at the iconic Chris Squire Star Licks video from 1990. Chris is at his relaxed and chatty best and shows off his skills, his guitars and his pedal board. It's a wonderful time capsule of Yes goodness and Mark and I hugely enjoyed chatting about our reactions to it. The conversation goes down a couple of unexpected routes and we venture, predictably, into the weeds of both kit and musical theory! I promise it's not tedious though - how could it be with your two favourite podcast hosts in tandem? You'll find the videos we talk about at YesMusicPodcast.com What secrets does Chris share? What kit does he show off? What do we learn about Yes music from his bass lines here? See if you agree with us and then leave a comment.  

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius After the emergence online of another Drama Tour video - with sound - by James Ferrani on YouTube, Mark and I took a careful look at his 2 videos from consecutive days on the 1980 Drama Tour that featured Buggles men Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes. There are at least 2 revelations contained in the videos that I don't believe any Yes fans except those who attended the concerts in North America have experienced in the intervening 45 years. I knew they had happened but seeing them is quite remarkable. Stay tuned for our discussion, watch the videos in the show notes for this episode over at YesMusicPodcast.com and leave us a comment while you are there. What are the unique aspects of these videos? Was Chris Squire a bit 'under the weather'? Who looked more comfortable - Downes or Horn?

We interview Yes Music Podcast's Kevin Mulryne, who recently released a book: Tales from Topographic Oceans Yes Album Listening Guide! You can order it at https://yesmusicbooks.com/ and check out http://yesmusicpodcast.com

This week, Mark and I spoke to the redoubtable David Watkinson who has published another fabulous Yessay (see what he did there?) on Forgotten-Yesterdays.com. This time, it's about a subject that might appear a bit dry - the band's accounts books from 1969-1970. In fact, there is a huge amount that can be gleaned from the documents as you will hear in a few minutes' time. Can you guess what are the largest - and the most bizarre - expenses the band incurred at this time? Prepare to be amazed, as they say. Yes were into Coke!?! Which member of the band was an official Director of the first ever Yes limited company? Why was there a separate charge for taking a bath? You might - or might not - want to read Dave's Yessay before listening to us banging on about it. If you do, you can find the link on the show notes for this episode over at YesMusicPodcast.com.

In a different kind of time travel this week, Mark and I welcomed Henry Potts back onto the show to talk about his recollections of the first Yes online discussions he was involved with in the early 1990s. After I posted some photos of the Yes fanzines I have in my collection on the Patreon group, Simon Barrow suggested we speak to Henry who has always been at the vanguard of Yes fans on the internet. He shared some fascinating insights into exactly how the first systems worked and how the 'scene' morphed and developed over the decades. Of course, we'd love to hear about your own earliest online experiences of Yes fandom so please do add your comments to the show notes for this week over at YesMusicPodcast.com.   When did the concept of online discussion begin? What were the first websites and fan forums? How has it all changed?

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week, Mark and I considered what makes Talk from 1994 a great Yes album. The final Yes record featuring Trevor Rabin was a tour-de-force of progressive rock in many ways but what do you think Mark and I chose as our reasons to focus on? Perhaps we chose the same aspects as you would, perhaps not. In any case, do please add your thoughts on Talk to the show notes for this week's episode over at YesMusicPodcast.com Is this actually a great Yes album? Does it sound like Yes? Which musicians keep the Yes flame alive?

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Jeffrey Crecelius, and Ken Fuller Mark and I spent some time this week searching through both our memory banks and our shelves of Yes-related records. We wanted to uncover and promote some lesser-known deep cuts on albums that Yes men have been involved with outside the main group. We each came up with 3 songs you may not have heard or you may have forgotten about. We hope you enjoy revisiting them or discovering a little more of the breadth and depth of what Yes musicians have been involved with over the decades. Of course, we would be delighted to have your own suggestions of what other deep cuts we can all benefit from hearing - leave your suggestions on the show notes for this week's episode over at YesMusicPodcast.com

Unfortunately, Mark has been unwell this week so best wishes to him for a speedy recovery. As we couldn't record an episode, I've been delving into the archive to uncover the first Yes Tracks Through Time episode I ever did. That was back in April 2013. Wow. Here are the show notes from way back then: The seventy-ninth episode of the Yes Music Podcast featuring the first in a series of Yes Tracks Through Time. After the initial recording, what happened to songs live? How did different line-ups of the band alter the character of tracks – if at all? Listen and then let me know what you think of the different approaches by contacting me via any of the different routes on the right hand side or by leaving a comment below! Which of the three versions of Astral Traveller is the best? Should group members leave tracks alone or add their own character? Does the band's approach change over time?

Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller This week I'm feeding back on my trip to Trading Boundaries to see what Dave Watkinson has put on display alongside the permanent Roger Dean exhibition there. I made a video of Dave showing me around and we both enthuse about all the amazing items. I then had a chance to chat with Mark about what he noticed on the video - of course it's embedded into the show notes over at YesMusicPodcast.com What was on display? Where and what is Trading Boundaries? What has Paul Graf sent to Kevin? Let us know if you agree with us!

Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller It's 2025 and Mark and I are back for another year of the Yes Music Podcast. According to an online tool, it's 13 years 3 months 2 weeks and 6 days since I published episode 1. Wow. This episode focuses on Drama from 1980 - released 44 years 4 months 2 weeks and 5 days ago. Despite the shock of the dramatic lineup changes (Buggles Horn and Downes replacing Anderson and Wakeman) and the resulting initial dismissal of the album by some fans, the record is now amongst the most popular of all Yes albums. So why is Drama now regarded as a great Yes album? Mark and I have come up with our 6 reasons as you will hear in a few minutes. See if you agree and let us know in the comments for this episode. Why can we even call this a Yes album? What was the impact of The Buggles? Does it look like a Yes album?

Special Episode – Interview with Mark Anthony K of Projekt Gemineye – Oct 2024 The Palaver is very pleased to have another chat with Mark Anthony K (Projekt Gemineye, The Dark Monarchy, The Yes Music Podcast, and KissFAQ) about the latest Projekt Gemineye offering Canada: Stories and Legends. Mark is, as always, very engaging and insightful about the process that led to this latest record. He walks us through his inspirations, recording techniques, and overall intentions. We poke into almost every corner of this project to illuminate this collection for our listeners. We hope you enjoy. We are always thrilled to speak with Mark about his work!

Special Episode – Interview with Mark Anthony K of Projekt Gemineye – Feb 2024 For this special episode, we get to catch up with our friend Mark Anthony K (Projekt Gemineye, The Dark Monarchy, The Yes Music Podcast, and Kiss FAQ) to discuss the latest Projekt Gemineye release What's On Your Mind?. Mark provides his usual fascinating level of detail behind his writing and recording process and gives us all insights into the songs on this latest release. Of course, we have to delve into a wide range of related/unrelated topics including recording gear and technique, how to successfully produce an album, upcoming projects from Mark. We even have time to consider Joe's dream job of Pink Floyd archivist for a lark.

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller After a short break, Mark and I are back to consider what Geoff Downes was doing before being asked to rejoin Yes for the recording of Fly From Here, released in 2011, shortly before the Yes Music Podcast was established. We have been listening to the John Wetton album, Raised in Captivity which includes many prog rock heroes so listen out for our thoughts on that and what, if anything, we learned about why Geoff was re-recruited. Can we tell why Yes wanted Geoff Downes from this record? What do all those guests add? Is it a good record? Let us know if you agree with us! I received an amazing email this week - or was it last week I can't remember - informing me that Yes The Tormato Story has been shortlisted for a Selfie Award. These are handed out for self-published books so I think it has a lot more to do with the work Izzie Lawrence (cover designer), Bob Carling (production management and typesetting) and Simon Barrow (all round legend who kept me on track) had to do with it than me. It's also down to Mark, every Executive Producer, newsletter subscriber, pre-order-er, supporter, YMP listener, producer and patron and everyone else who had any role in its creation - see the full acknowledgements page in the book for more details. Anyway, I have to go to the London Book Fair in a couple of weeks' time to see if the book wins in the general non fiction category so keep your fingers crossed, please. https://youtu.be/8mfLQxwtwy8?si=_6Cm6fHMkoYFz5ir Check out the progress on my other podcast - https://anthem52.com/ Support the Fundraiser!

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller We had yet another lovely conversation with a relatively unsung hero of the Yes story this week. As you'll hear, you have probably seen Jeff Cumins' work, even if you don't realise it. He has a long and distinguished career as an artist and illustrator and revealed fascinating insights that neither Mark nor I had heard before. I'm sure you'll enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed talking to him. Do check out the images in this week's shownotes to see why were so pleased to be able to speak to Jeff. A huge thank you to everyone who donated to the YMP 6–th episode appeal for our 600th episode. We achieved our target in just a few days but don't let that put you off - you can still donate by clicking the link on Yes Music Podcast.com. As we have now passed our goal, Mark and I are planning our first ever YMP Live episode. I do hope you'll be able to join us for what promises to be an epic undertaking playing and talking about Yes music and lots more. Details to follow as soon as possible.

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller Stephen Lambe joins us in a moment to talk about his updated, comprehensive Yes book as well as touching on Tales and Trevor Rabin. https://burningshed.com/store/sonicbond What has Stephen added to his already great Yes book? What does he think of the current state of Yes? Where can you get his book? Let us know if you agree with us! We are entering another period of intense Yes activity this week with the band preparing for its US tour, Trevor Rabin releasing singles from his forthcoming album, Rio and perhaps the most seismic happening of all, the 600th episode of the Yes Music Podcast. We have a rather special guest lined up to join us in our celebration so it's bound to be one to remember. Mark and I are also planning a charity event to coincide with the milestone and more information on that will be coming soon, unless you are already a YMP Patron, of course - in which case I've already let them into the secret.

Special Episode – Interview with Kevin Mulryne, Author of Yes - The Tormato Story In this special episode we have the chance to speak with friend of the Palaver, host of The Yes Music Podcast, and now published author. Kevin provides us some insight into his new book, Yes - The Tormato Story. We go into all the usual Palaver corners covering his motivations for writing this particular book, his methods of research, and things that he learned along the way. Kevin's answers are, as expected, illuminating and entertaining. It's always an extreme pleasure to speak to such a well-versed gentleman about a topic we all love!

Tormato is an album that only hardcore Yes fans seem to know about. Without huge hit singles and a non-Roger Dean cover that many people do not like (including famously some of the members of the band), their 1978 offering often flies under the radar. But thanks to Kevin Mulryne, co-host of The Yes Music Podcast and author of the book Yes - The Tormato Story you can learn the most extraordinary details that went into the making of this album. From working with Hipgnosis on the cover, working at Advision studios to only move to RAC, the equipment the band used, the extra tracks that didn't make the album, to never before seen images from those sessions this book is a real treasure. Even rock fans who aren't that into Yes will be blown away by the detail Kevin has included through his extensive research from members of the band to their crew and all sorts of folks in the Yes orbit. Did you know they used a rotating stage on that tour? Did you know it went platinum in the US but you couldn't get it on CD until 1989? Though Don't Kill The Whale was a minor hit, the odd songs like Arriving UFO and Circus of Heaven make this one a bit different. And with rare epics like On The Silent Wings of Freedom, Onward or the baroque Madrigal, Tormato serves up some buried treasure which Kevin has helped to unearth. The book is a fantastic read and our conversation with Kevin was even more informative.

Steve Howe by William Mulryne Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius In a break from our very well-received technical episodes, Mark and I return this week to the what did they do next series. We are still in the so-called YES hiatus period of 2005-ish and we have just two band members yet to consider, the first being Steve Howe. SO we've taken a look around the various sources to see what Steve was up to at this point and one of the most useful was, perhaps unsurprisingly, his autobiography, All My Yesterdays. So, what do you think we chose to talk about this week and listen to next week? You will need to be a bit of a hard-core Steve Howe fan to know the answer, I suppose, but keep listening and see if you are correct then take the opportunity to listen yourself this week and then see how our opinions differ from yours next week. Do let us know, of course. What was Steve up to now?Who was he working with?What Yes connections can we discover? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think! Become a Patron!

Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius A small selection from my Tormato collection I asked our friend Miguel Falcão to tell me a bit about how Chris Squire achieved such a remarkable bass sound for Tormato. Instead of sending me a few bullet points, Miguel was kind enough to record a complete audio description of the technical minutiae of the master's solution. Mark and I listen to this amazing in-depth piece and discuss a few of the points Miguel makes. Many thanks to Miguel and if you haven't heard his staggeringly accurate Yes bass covers, then you are missing out a great deal. See the links below to remedy that immediately. How did Chris Squire achieve 'that' sound for Tormato?What technology did he employ?Was the approach the same on every song on Tormato? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

Paul K Joyce provided the orchestrations for a number of the songs on the record and worked closely with Steve Howe as producer. Paul takes us through the story of how this all came about as well as his Yes story and some of the remarkable and unexpected turns his career has taken. Prepare yourself to hear about Tangerine Dream, Noddy, Bob the Builder, Time by Steve Howe and more in a delightful interview. It's another deeply hidden part of the Yesstory and one which Mark and I enjoyed finding out about enormously. I hope you also find it an interesting diversion.

Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius This week we decided to go really deeply into the technical weeds of Yes and look at an instrument which appears on Tormato and not very many other places in the musical universe. We are joined by the remarkable Chris Dale who has devoted many years of his life to collecting and renovating this, rarest of all musical instruments, the Birotron. We discuss what Rick Wakeman had to do with this fascinating story, what the Birotron is and why it was never put into production despite 1000 musicians wanting to buy one. It's another deeply hidden part of the Yesstory and one which Mark and I enjoyed finding out about enormously. I hope you also find it an interesting diversion. What is a Birotron?Where can you hear one?Why is it the rarest musical instrument in the world? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

Produced by Wayne Hall, Jeffrey Crecelius and Preston Frazier In a truly epic episode, as is appropriate for the 500th, Mark and I present a competition and have the privilege and pleasure to speak to not one but two Yes keyboard legends - founder member, Tony Kaye and present band member, Geoff Downes. We talk to Tony about his recently-released and highly remarkable debut solo album, End of Innocence, as well as asking him some of the questions about Yes which have been keeping us up at night for years (well, not really). Geoff Downes discusses new studio album The Quest which is, of course, a must-hear interview and there are lots of audio messages from Producers, Patrons and friends of the show to enjoy. Miguel Falcao and David Pannell have very kindly provided brand new jingles and we think the episode is a fitting way to celebrate 10 years of the show. We hope you enjoy it! What was the inspiration for End of Innocence?Why has Tony only now created his first solo album?What is Steve Howe's production like on The Quest?How successful does Geoff Downes think the new record is?

Produced by Wayne Hall, Jeffrey Crecelius and Preston Frazier This week Mark and I embark on another 'what did they do next' quest. Once again we come to Rick Wakeman and what he did after leaving the band in 2005. So we discuss the next release from Mr. Wakeman which turns out to be a most unusual release, even for him. Take a listen below and then join in with our assessment of the package next week. Also, this week, you can't have failed to notice that Yes have released a second online single from the new album, The Quest. It's called Dare to Know and Marka nd discuss our first reactions to it in a special Two Pence. Let us know if you agree! What was Rick Wakeman doing in a cathedral?Can he even play the pipe organ?What is the new Yes song like?

Produced by Wayne Hall, Jeffrey Crecelius and Preston Frazier [Above] Photo of Scott by Jerry & Lois Photography This week I was able to speak to Scott Schorr about how he created the LEVIN TORN WHITE album. You may not know Scott's name but you're bound to have heard some music he has been involved with. Founder of record label and music publishing company, Lazy Bones Recordings, Scott describes himself as 'a successful Music Producer, Arranger, Songwriter, Beat Maker, Mixing Supervisor and Video Editor'. He has produced recordings for some people you might have heard of such as Jordan Rudess, Marco Minnemann and Mike Keneally as well as numerous albums by Tony Levin. If you haven't heard the LEVIN TORN WHITE album, then it's time to remedy that situation. How did this meeting of 3 iconic prog artists happen?What do the track names mean?What was it like working with these 3 characters?

Produced by Wayne Hall, Jeffrey Crecelius and Preston Frazier This week Mark speaks to one of the unsung heroes of Yes' recent releases (going back to the Like It Is live series), Maor Appelbaum. If, like me, you haven't a clue what a Timbre Farm is or what difference a Saturator/Clipper makes to the sound of a record, then you're in for a treat. It's a fascinating and in-depth conversation, so many thanks to Mark and Maor for making this happen. What IS mastering?Which Yes records has Maor worked on?How do you make a recording sound as good as possible? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!
