Yes Music Podcast Kevin Mulryne

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller







Mark and I had a great time this week thinking about interesting or unusual Yes musical textures. We both came up with 3 examples that we thought were surprising or different so do have a look below to hear the clips we are referring to and add your own examples to the comments section. You may be surprised with some of our suggestions - that’s somewhat the idea, after all.









* What interesting textures can you think of in Yes music?







* Is it down to instrumentation, arrangement or a combination?







* Do Mark and I choose the same things again?

Yes - The Tormato Story

























a href="https://yesmusicpodcast.

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller







This week Mark and I attempted to choose 3 Peter Banks era Yes songs each. As you’ll hear, we turned out to be thinking along similar lines but it was still a very enjoyable experience listening to the earliest days of the band and discussing what made Yes unique even at that stage.







Yesterdays label







This topic was partly in response to a tweet or X post or whatever they are now called from Phil (Primarily_Prog) @primarily_prog who posted a photo of Time and a Word and said -







Continuing tonight with perhaps the most undervalued album in the Yes discography.I seldom hear it mentioned, yet the interplay between Banks, Bruford, Squire and Kaye is quite something.And Jon’s voice to top it off … pic.twitter.com/tiO0ZlZQ5E— Phil (Primarily_Prog) (@primarily_prog) April 21, 2024









* What was special about the Peter Banks era?







* What are our favourite songs from way back then?







* What can we learn about how Yes music developed?

Geoff Bailie and some other bloke







It was lovely to welcome back onto the YMP our friend and patron, Geoff Bailie this week. Mark and I spoke to him about the recent news that Yes will be on tour with Deep Purple in the US and Canada this Summer. What do you think of that idea? Well, self-confessed Deep Purple fan Geoff shares some thoughts with us and we discuss pretty much every aspect of the forthcoming tour, as you would expect. Do leave your own thoughts on the show notes for this week.









* Why are Yes touring with Deep Purple?







* Is this a co-headlining tour or are Yes the support act?







* Will Yes always play first?

It seems like a long time since the last episode but it’s not.







Anyway, it was delightful to speak to a warm and friendly unsung hero of Yes last week. As you will hear, despite being very keen to be involved, Mark wasn’t able to join in the conversation due to timing and technical issues but he will be back next week. Genaro actually contacted me quite some time ago and introduced himself.















It’s taken ages to coordinate a time to speak but I’m sure you’ll agree that it was well worth the effort and I’m sure he will be joining us again soon.







The console Eddie Offord designed and Genaro Rippo operated at Yes live concerts.

He has asked me not to open the comments function on the show notes for this week but you can still send comments on what you hear to me via email show@yesmusicpodcast.com or by using the contact form. Please do send me your thoughts.









* What was Genaro's role with Yes?







* Why is he a 'mystery man'?







* What albums and live events was he involved in?

I'm publishing this episode on Good Friday so there's been no time for the usual news roundup. However, Mark and I did manage to talk about 'Talk' receiving the box set treatment.







We discuss what's going to be included - and what doesn't seem to be included as well.







It one of our favourite Yes albums so there's plenty to be excited about in this release.

















* In what sense is Talk 'lost'?







* Is this going to be a worthwhile release?







* What's going to be on all those discs?

We were delighted to be able to speak to Jay Schellen this week about the upcoming Yes UK and Europe Tour and many other topics, particularly his relationship with the late, great Alan White. As you will hear, Jay's connections with Yes are numerous and he is a truly talented all-round musician, not 'just' a drummer.







Stand by for surprising stories, tennis and visits to the pub...

















* How did Jay find himself playing with so many Yes men?







* What did he learn from Alan White?







* What is it like playing with Downes, Howe, Davison and Sherwood?
