Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller
This week, Mark and I were joined by Jon Pickles to talk about the latest (greatest?) Yes Record Store Day offering - Live at the Rainbow London, England 12/16/1972 - a catchy title if there ever was one. I haven't forked out the considerable amount of money for a copy - yet - but both Jon and Mark have, so at least they are speaking from a position of knowledge. No change there then.
Have you managed to get a copy of this new release?
What does the music sound like?
Is it a good performance?
Is the high cost justified?
Let us know if you agree with us!

Yes songs with great contrasts – 669
Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller
This week, Mark and I had a think about the Yes songs we like that include contrasts - one of my favourite aspects of progressive rock - and Yes music. We both chose 2 songs to talk about in depth but also went on a bit about other songs that also fit this category. It was another very interesting conversation - at least I thought so.
What songs do we choose?
What do we mean by contrast?
Do our selections cover a wide range of eras of the band?

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!
