2023 – A New Hope – 564

Produced by Ken Fuller, Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius

New Year and time to look forward, rather than back. Join Mark and me talking about what’s coming up based on two sources:


  1. http://bondegezou.blogspot.com/ – companion site to http://www.bondegezou.co.uk/wnyesm.htm from the legendary Henry Potts
  2. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1255122348371376 from the knowledgeable and erudite Jon Dee

  • What Yes and Yes related albums can we look forward to in 2023?
  • Is anyone touring?
  • Who is publishing a fascinating book about Tormato?

Take a listen to the episode and then let us know what you think below!


Facebook has just changed how pages work which means that I’ve had to establish a new place for us to post and discuss Yes-related happenings. It’s a new group entitled, rather creatively, YMP Discussion Group. For the moment it’s open to anyone to join but I’ll be adding rules and joining requirements when I have time. 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.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/3216603008606331/


If you haven’t already done so, please sign up at tormatobook.com to the email newsletter. PRESALE IS UNDERWAY! If you sign up now, for free, you can have access to the newsletters you’ve missed. It really helps to know people are looking forward to reading the culmination of my decades of Tormato obsession.

Goodbye 2020 – 462

Lewis Clarke / West Devon : Yes Tor / CC BY-SA 2.0

Recorded on the last day of 2020, we bid a grateful farewell to a year which has been difficult for everyone. However, it’s also been one of the most successful years for the YMP!

Mark and I have chosen our own 6 favourite episodes from the past year and we invite you to add your own selections to the comments below.

We also look ahead briefly to 2021 which is, of course, the 10th Anniversary Year of the YMP, hence the photo of Yes Tor above. It would be fantastic if you were able to join in the recording of the 500th episode from the top of Yes Tor in Devon, UK on 17th August 2021. Many more details to follow!

We hope to see you there!

Happy New Year From Mark and Kevin to all!

Plans for 2012

New Year 2012

After a fantastic first four months of the Yes Music Podcast, here is a very short episode for the New Year, with a few ideas I’m thinking of developing in 2012.

Please let me know what you think of the ideas.

I hope you all have a great 2012 and thanks so much for listening and getting involved in 2011!

Apologies that the sound quality is not as good as usual. I need to do a lot more experimenting with the new set up!

Normal service will resume next week, barring unforeseen circumstances…

What are your Yes music champagne moments?

Nominate your champagne moments!

Over the coming holiday period, I won’t have time to record the usual album episodes. What I’d like to do instead is create a couple of episodes made up of what you regard as the best moments of Yes music – the moments which remind you why you love listening to Yes – your ‘champagne moments’.

I’d like as many YMP listeners as possible to submit their ideas by Tuesday 13th December through any one of the following routes:

  • Leave a comment on this blog post
  • Ring the voice mail number (on the right) and leave a message
  • Send an email to show@yesmusicpodcast.com
  • Upload an audio file to the new ‘GoAruna’ site (click the link on the right) – please make this .wav or .mp3 (44100Hz and 128bps if you understand this stuff)
You can submit as many champagne moments as you like but I might have to select one or two if lots of people get involved – as I hope they will!

Please get involved!
