This week, Mark and I start off the next instalment of the perennially popular What Did They Do Next series with a certain Billy Sherwood’s activities post Yes. Can you guess what album we will be talking about? Stay tuned to find out if you’re right.

  • What did Billy do after ‘leaving’ the band following the Talk Tour?
  • How does he manage to fit so much in?
  • Would Yes exist today if it wasn’t for Billy?

Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

The Yes Album vs. Going For The One – 453

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier

Going For The One and its singles
Going For The One and its singles

Unfortunately, both I and Mark have been a bit under the weather this week but we recovered in time to listen to two classic Yes albums and record our thoughts. There’s also time for a few thoughts about Jon Anderson’s new very controversial song!

  • How do these two albums compare?
  • What changed between them?
  • What is Jon Anderson up to now?

Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

First thoughts on The Royal Affair Tour: Live From Las Vegas – 452

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier

I’d like to say Mark and I have been enjoying listening to the new Yes live album, The Royal Affair Tour: Live From Las Vegas this week and actually I have enjoyed the majority of it but you’ll hear a little later in the episode why we’re slightly concerned about the latest release. You may find our comments difficult or you may agree – please do let us know either way.

At the end of the episode Mark also helps me out to gain a proper understanding of the significance of Eddie van Halen who, as I’m sure you know, sadly died at the tragically young age of 65 this week. Do stay tuned for that.

  • Do we need another Yes live album?
  • What’s different about this one?
  • Is it worth buying?

Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

Roine Stolt talks about Yes, Jon Anderson, The Flower Kings’ new album and more! 451

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier

It was a great pleasure to speak to Roine Stolt this week about his forthcoming album with The Flower Kings, ‘Islands’. We also chatted about Yes, working with Jon Anderson on the Anderson Stolt record ‘Invention of Knowledge’ and other projects. He’s another very busy musician – even in these pandemic days.

  • What is the new Flower Kings music like?
  • Is anything happening with Anderson/Stolt?
  • What was the most challenging part of working with Jon Anderson?
