Next week’s YMP episode will be a proper tribute to Alan White so please add your contributions in the comments section below.
This week, rather than a ‘standard’ episode we thought it would be appropriate to re-play our interview with Alan from January 2020. He was in fine form, as always and it was a joy to speak to him.
‘Legendary’ is an entirely apt description of this true gentleman, extraordinary musician and friend to all he encountered. R.I.P. Alan.
Mark and I have ticked off another of our top ambitions on the podcast by speaking to Yes drum legend, Alan White. We cover a number of different topics and Alan is absolutely delightful, as I’m sure you know.
For the first time in ages, I also managed to do a news catch-up which features a few highlights from around the social webs in recent days and/or weeks and do listen out for a couple of new items. I hope you enjoy the whole episode!
Listen to the episode and let us know what you think.

This week Mark and I spoke to Chris Kimball about a 70s oddity in the Yes instrumental arsenal – Alan White’s North drums. After restoring, playing and recording with these strange objects, Chris is ideally placed to explain why they look so weird and why drummers like Alan White were interested in using them.
It’s another engrossing story from a very knowledgeable musician and it’s packed with detail so I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

This week I was able to speak to Scott Schorr about how he created the LEVIN TORN WHITE album. You may not know Scott’s name but you’re bound to have heard some music he has been involved with.
Founder of record label and music publishing company, Lazy Bones Recordings, Scott describes himself as ‘a successful Music Producer, Arranger, Songwriter, Beat Maker, Mixing Supervisor and Video Editor’.
He has produced recordings for some people you might have heard of such as Jordan Rudess, Marco Minnemann and Mike Keneally as well as numerous albums by Tony Levin. If you haven’t heard the LEVIN TORN WHITE album, then it’s time to remedy that situation.

Across the globe from Canada, Indonesia, the UK and the US (I think!) it was a real pleasure for Mark and I to speak to Kevin Currie and Ted Stockwell this week about their band, White, which has featured Alan White and Geoff Downes in the past. It’s a great, in-depth interview in which we delve into the fascinating history of the band and their strong links to Yes.
The whole conversation was organised for us by Daniel Krohn so many thanks to him.
