    Stephen Lambe on his book – Rock Classics – Yes 90125 – 651

    In Production: Tales from Topographic OceansListening guide YesMusicBooks.com Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller We spoke to publisher and Yes author Stephen Lambe this week about his (relatively) recent book Rock Classics - Yes 90125. The book delves deeply into the story of the 1983 album that became Yes’ best selling record of all time and saw the rebirth of the band after the events following the Drama tour. It could all have been very different if Trevor Rabin, Chris Squire, Tony Kaye and Alan White had stuck with their original plans of creating a much more stadium rock orientated band called Cinema. Stephen Lambe helps us to discover the unsung hero of the album’s creation and the man who was responsible for bringing Jon Anderson back into the fold. Listen out for that later on in the episode and get hold of a copy of Stephen’s book at Burning Shed or your favourite retailer. * Who is the unsung hero of 90125? * Did the members of Cinema want it to morph into Yes? * What are the keys to the longevity of the album?

    Anam Cara with Oliver Wakeman – 649

    In Production: Tales from Topographic OceansListening guide YesBooks.com Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller It was a pleasure once again to welcome Oliver Wakeman onto the YMP. He came along to talk about his new album, Anum Cara, and, as you might expect, I couldn’t help throwing a couple of Yes related questions in as well. Listen carefully towards the end of the conversation and you’ll hear about an abandoned Yes project that Oliver would have been involved in. Head over to the show notes for this episode to see the videos Oliver has created to accompany the album and why not order yourself a copy of the CD rather than streaming the album. * Is this a folk album? * Who else is playing? * Is that really Oliver on guitar?

    Happy 80th Birthday Jon Anderson! – 647

    In Production: Tales from Topographic OceansListening guide TormatoBook.com Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller Last week was the 80th birthday of the legendary Yes co-founder Jon Anderson. To mark this important milestone, Mark and I chose just 3 of our favourite Anderson moments - solo (or collaborations), with Yes on record and with Yes live. Clearly, we both had to do a lot of thinking and leave out countless items we could have included. However, we did come up with 6 interesting and iconic items to celebrate Jon's birthday. It's remarkable that he is still so active and has created such an amazing collection of musical wonders over more than 6 decades. * What makes Jon Anderson a special musician? * What collaborations or solo albums are our favourites? * What are our choices of the best Jon live moments? Let us know if you agree with us! Song of Seven a href="https://yesmusicpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/firefox_2017-06-30_16-39-27.
