    YesKit Part 3 – 668

    Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller Mark and I always enjoy ‘getting into the weeds’ and ‘geeking out’ about Yes kit so here is another perfect example of this. This week we both chose 3 pieces of YesKit that took our fancy and went on about them for a long time. If you don’t consider yourself a 5%er who loves hearing about the minutiae of music tech as used by Yes, then feel free to skip this episode. If you do, though, I feel I should point out that you’ll miss Mark playing actual musical examples and me giving a little bit of a sneak preview of what’s coming up in the Tales book. You have been warned. * What bits of YesKit do we choose? * Did you know all about these already? * What do you think of Mark’s instrumental ‘chops’? Let us know if you agree with us!

    Delving into the archive for a Yes Tracks Through Time – 666

    Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller 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: Episode 200 with a new logo! 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? Let us know if you agree with us! I MADE IT TO ANTHEM 52! MY Other podcast - https://anthem52.com/ Yes - The Tormato Story Available now!

    Something’s Coming – Peter Banks and the new Yes album – 665

    Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller In a bumper double-feature episode (or something like that), Mark and I compare the Empire featuring Peter Banks version of Something’s Coming with the Yes studio version and we also indulge in a little bit of speculation about the forthcoming Yes album - and who doesn’t enjoy these kinds of guessing games? Well if you don’t, feel free to use the fast forward button.  Anyway, it was a lot of fun listening to some very early Yes and what Peter Banks did when he revisited it himself in 1979. Videos of the 2 songs are available below of course. * How similar are the 2 versions of Something's Coming? * Does Peter Banks play it the same way he did with Yes? * What do we have in-store from Yes' forthcoming new album? Let us know if you agree with us! https://youtu.be/OQl1xTU0y_0?si=36PV9sMZkP5OGYLS https://youtu.be/axDZyUvAXEs?si=8AkCMhR9RUutcdw1 Mark Lang's copy of the new CTTE! After we spoke about a forthcoming Washington DC exhibition that includes Roger Dean's Yessongs artwork, YMP listener Craig Tiren went along to see it. Here he is, suitable attired!

    Yes Tracks Through Time – Awaken – 664

    Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller This week, Mark and I return to one of our favourite pastimes - listening to Yes tracks through time. We each chose 3 different live recordings of Awaken to listen to and then discuss. So it’s time to put your Roger Dean thinking caps on and see if you would have chosen the same versions as us. * Which versions did we choose? * Why did we chose those ones? * Who does it best?

    Yes Album Listening Guides – Tales from Topographic Oceans – Part 13 – Extras on the Steven Wilson Blu-ray of Tales – 663

    Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller This week Mark and I enjoyed discovering the many delights of the Blu-ray version of the Steven Wilson remix set of Tales from Topographic Oceans. It’s packed full of obscure and unusual versions of the songs on the album - a delight for all Yes nerds fans everywhere. Do you have a copy of the Blu-ray version? If not, you might want to find one as explained in our chat in a few minutes' time. * What is included on the Blu-ray? * Does it sound good? * Is it worth choosing Blu-ray as an audio format over DVD-A or others?

    You’re playing my song! – 662

    Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller This week Mark and I consider 6 songs that were performed live really well by lineups of Yes that didn’t record them. With the revolving door policy of the band over the decades, there was a lot to choose from so see if we came up with anything you would have chosen yourself. Of course, as usual, we’d love to hear from you some of your own suggestions, so please do add those to the show notes for this week over at yesmusicpodcast.com * What have we chosen? * How do songs from different lineups sound live? * Who plays it better?

    David Watkinson, Roger Dean and Trading Boundaries – 661

    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 below. * What was on display? * Where and what is Trading Boundaries? * What has Paul Graf sent to Kevin?
