Tag: Chris Squire

This week we listen to Billy Sherwood’s excellent Chris Squire Tribute album, A life in Yes. We also discuss what Anderson, Rabin and Wakeman could have brought to that album if things had been very different – which is a topic suggested by Steven Shinder and not Daniel Krohn as I say later on in the episode – sorry Steven.

Who is on this collection?
How do the versions sound?
Is it a fitting tribute to Chris Squire?

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

While we wait for the German version re-issue of Time and a Word on Record Store Day Black Friday, we decided to listen again to the original record and choose our favourite songs. We also muse on the recent trend of private pressings in our 2 pence segment.

What 3 singles did we choose?
What can we tell about Jon Anderson’s solo work?
Are there any clues to 1000 Hands?

Half Term Replay – 357

As it’s half term for me and my family this week, I dipped into the archives and found the episode I released almost exactly 5 years ago. It was recorded in my car as I travelled to Nottingham for work. It tells the story of finding a Leave It 12 inch single in a charity shop and includes my thoughts on the item. It’s a bit of a blast from the past!

Where did I come across this item?
Is it any good?
What was the point of 12 inch singles?

This week Mark and I have been considering Songs From Tsongas in order to re-live the last time Howe, White, Anderson and Wakeman were together on stage along with the late great Chris Squire. With the recent ARW and Yes live offerings perhaps only offering us part of the story, does Songs from Tsongas now seem like the full picture?

Was it better when the ‘classic’ lineup were with us?
How does the acoustic section come over?
How is the band interaction?

We’ve (finally) reached the end of the Yes singles series with Heaven and Earth which didn’t really have any proper singles at all. However, it does give us a chance to think about Yes’ latest studio album again and we also have a bass focus in our 2 pence segment.

What’s is it with Heaven and Earth?
Were there any singles?
Why was RTB used again?

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