ABWH days! 
The Album in question
This is our first episode in the YMP’s 10th Anniversary year and it’s a real epic. I asked Patrons and a few others for their contributions to this week’s topic and the response was amazing. So this is another episode you might want to listen to in parts. It may well be the longest episode ever but I also think you’ll really enjoy hearing everyone’s thoughts on Rick Wakeman and The Yes Album. Incidentally, if you sent me a contribution but I haven’t included it, please do let me know and I’ll apologise and add it to next week’s show.
- Was this the right time for Rick Wakeman to join Yes?
- Was Tony Kaye’s style not right for the band?
- How different would it have sounded if Wakeman had been there?
Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

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 the following two creative commons sources: thanvannispen and archive.org

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?

- What more is there to learn about the early days of the band fromt he DVD?
- Who will carry the prog torch?
- Will Yes fans be priced out of seeing ARW?
