Mark shares the news of the loss of a member of our global Yes fan community, Phil Naro, and we re-play an interview Mark did with him back in 2016. Rest In Peace.
We also finish off our look at Conspiracy, the album by the band of the same name which features Billy Sherwood, Chris Squire and a number of very famous guests.
- What is Conspiracy like?
- What are its Yes connections?
- How does it compare to Open Your Eyes?

This week, Mark and I had the opportunity to think about the next person to leave the band – Billy Sherwood. What did he do next after the end of The Ladder tour? We’ll let you know a little later.
At the end of this episode, I’m going to play a very interesting piece of audio from Daniel and Amanda Krohn. It’s about From A Page, the Oliver Wakeman led Yes mini-album. We will return to this topic soon.
- What did Billy do next?
- Did it have any Yes connections?
- With whom did he collaborate?

It’s been a week for thinking deeply…or maybe not. Anyway, Mark and I have been listening to the oft maligned sides 2 and 3 of Tales from Topographic Oceans which have not been played as often as sides 1 and 4. Why not I hear you cry. Or maybe I don’t. In any case, that’s what we will be banging on about in this episode
- Why abandon sides 2 and 3?
- Are they really that bad?
- What was it like to be an early audience member?
Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!
This is the recording we listened to:

In part 2 of our occasional ‘What did they do next’ series, we listen to Return To The Centre Of The Earth. We also welcome Nic Caciappo onto the show to explain his personal connection to the Rick Wakeman album.
It’s a great conversation and a lovely treat to meet Nic, at least virtually.
- What is this album like?
- How was Nic involved?
- Was it a worthwhile idea?

This week we return to our occasional ‘What did they do next’ series and it’s Rick Wakeman’s turn again. After some fairly typical personal and legal upset, the band and Rick parted ways and there was to be no repeat of the Keys to Ascension positivity.
This left Wakeman free to indulge other passions and so he ramped up one of his long-held ambitions – to return to the centre of the earth. Mark and I discuss this project a little later on and then next week we will report back on the music itself.
- What did Rick do this time he left?
- Was it a typically low-key affair?
- What was he going to ‘re-tread’?
