We were delighted to welcome Oliver Wakeman to the show this week to talk about the surprise new Yes album, From A Page.

We also have a copy of the mini box set containing From A Page and In The Present – Live From Lyon.

Here’s the question you need to answer: At which event did Oliver first see his dad playing ‘with Yes’? You’ll need to listen to the interview for the answer!

Send your answer to show@yesmusicpodcast.com and one winner will be chosen at random.

Theme music

The music I use is the last movement of Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite. This has been used as introduction music at many Yes concerts. My theme music is not take from a live concert – I put it together from the following two creative commons sources: thanvannispen and archive.org
