It was a delight to welcome the bass maestro Miguel Falcão back onto the YMP this week. As you would expect, he knows a lot about how Chris Squire created the bass lines for Tales from Topographic Oceans. You may have heard Miguel’s bass covers of both The Ancient and The Remembering, and if not they are embedded below.
We found out many things including what basses Chris used to record and play Tales live. So stand by for a massively in-depth look at the album…once again…
- What basses did Chris use to record Tales?
- Were there differences when Yes played Tales live?
- How does Chris’ playing on Tales differ from Close to the Edge?
Let us know if you agree with us!

Our (not really) new Facebook YMP Discussion Group is open to anyone to join but I’ll be adding rules and joining requirements when I have time (one day…). One of the advantages of the new format is that all members of the group have the same ability to post content, so it’s a bit more egalitarian, or somesuch. Please do search for the group and join in.

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: archive.org
