Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall and Preston Frazier In part 2 of our occasional 'What did they do next' series, we listen to Return To The Centre Of The Earth. We also welcome Nic Caciappo onto the show to explain his personal connection to the Rick Wakeman album. It's a great conversation and a lovely treat to meet Nic, at least virtually. What is this album like?How was Nic involved?Was it a worthwhile idea? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think! Join us as a Patron!

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall and Preston Frazier This week we return to our occasional 'What did they do next' series and it’s Rick Wakeman’s turn again. After some fairly typical personal and legal upset, the band and Rick parted ways and there was to be no repeat of the Keys to Ascension positivity. This left Wakeman free to indulge other passions and so he ramped up one of his long-held ambitions - to return to the centre of the earth. Mark and I discuss this project a little later on and then next week we will report back on the music itself. What did Rick do this time he left?Was it a typically low-key affair?What was he going to 're-tread'? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think! Join us as a Patron!

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall and Preston Frazier It’s been quite a week. Mark and I managed to scoop an amazing world exclusive thanks to Bob Cesca and Tim Panella. They joined us to talk about the period in which they both worked with Yes on remixes, artwork, videography and more. We discovered not only untold stories but also Yes music which has never been heard in public before, 20 years after it was recorded by Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Alan White and Steve Howe. Listen out for the full, fascinating conversation as well as some undiscovered Yes music. Why has some Yes music not seen the light of day for 20 years?What did Bob and Tim get up to with Yes?Was it a positive experience? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week, Mark and I have been listening to and watching some recordings of the Union Tour in 1991. It’s a special one for Mark as it was his very first experience of Yes live - what a way to start. Listen out for our thoughts on that a little later in the episode when we compare notes on a couple of live versions of songs from the Union album and a couple of older songs.

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week, Mark and I complete our look at what Tony Kaye did after leaving Yes in 1995. We listen to Run Like Hell from the album, catchily entitled, 'Pigs And Pyramids - An All Star Lineup Performing The Songs Of Pink Floyd.. We also have time to consider the other Yes-related song on this album, 'Comfortably Numb' which features Chris Squire, Billy Sherwood and Alan White. Finally, we muse on what other line-ups of a Yes Power Trio might look like. How much does Kaye play on this song?What is that other Yes-related song like on this album?What's your fantasy Yes Power Trio Line-up? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week, Mark and I return to the perennial favourite series, What Did they Do next. When Trevor Rabin left Yes to pursue film scoring after the Talk tour, Tony Kaye also said goodbye not only to the band but also to the music industry, as we will hear a little later. What did he do next and when did he return to music? Stay tuned to find out. How long did Tony Kaye 'take off' from the music business?What was his first project after 'dusting off his Hammond B3?How did the project come about?

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier This week, Mark and I had the pleasure of speaking to Billy Sherwood about Arc Of Life, the band and the album. We also asked him about the widely rumoured new Yes studio album and he was, unsurprisingly, less forthcoming about that. It did lead to some light-hearted moments which we think you will enjoy though. Where did Arc Of Life spring from?Who plays what?What are the plans for the future of the band?

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier The original title! It was a delight to welcome Yes and DBA keyboardist Geoff Downes back onto the show this week. Mark and I speak to him about his excellent new DBA album, Halcyon Hymns as well as a couple of aspects of what’s coming up for Yes in 2021, specifically the rumours around the new album and the possibilities of touring.

We also have time to think about a 2 pence suggested by Jeremy North and I need to correct an omission from last week when we played Daniel and Amanda’s contribution to the What if Rick Wakeman had joined Yes before the Yes Album question but didn’t have time to add any feedback. What is the full Arc of Life album like?Is the music different to the singles?Is it prog - and does it matter? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think! Join us as a Patron!

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier 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?

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier Jon Anderson with Jon-Luc Ponty It’s been a bit of a challenging week on the technical side with Mark in lockdown and without proper internet access and my move of the YMP Towers into a new location in the house. However, we did manage to listen to the Jon Anderson Christmas album, 3 Ships which was very enjoyable. What's Jon's Christmas album like?Are all the songs 'Christmassy'?Why listen to 3 Ships?

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier Trevor in rock mode Rabin-esque blog: http://rabinesque.blogspot.com/ This is going to be a really long episode so maybe you should listen in a few parts. There are several really important pieces of news about releases, some audio contributions, a special 2 pence about Arc of Life and a wonderful interview with Julie from the Rabin-esque blog about Trevor Rabin’s movie score-writing career and The Glimmer Man which was the first thing he did after leaving Yes in 1995. Wow. So unfortunately I will need to postpone the full round up of social webs until next week. Incidentally if you’ve ever wondered how to see the community posts on the YMP Facebook page, you just need to click on the community tab towards the top of the page. There’s lots on there to enjoy and, as I say, I’ll get back to all that next week. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Arc-Life/dp/B08NF334WL/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Arc%20of%20life&qid=1607095396&s=music&sr=1-1&pldnSite=1&fbclid=IwAR0Pu57j7o5Ec3IjXCgh8LgtqMX8LEHseZd0IjqFq-Dleo1Dwzh3zWcPDiw Frontiers Music Srl is excited to announce the release of ARC OF LIFE's self-titled debut album on February 12, 2021. Arc Of Life is a new progressive rock supergroup featuring three members of the current YES line-up, vocalist/guitarist Jon Davison, bassist/vocalist Billy Sherwood, and additional drummer Jay Schellen, one of the most interesting talents in the “new” progressive rock scene in the US, Dave Kerzner (Sound of Contact) on keyboards, and Jimmy Haun (also featured on YES albums in the past) on guitar. Fans can get their first taste of the band's forthcoming debut with the new single and video, 'You Make It Real'. Watch HERE:https://youtu.be/_84UCEDeEkc Pre-order/save "Arc Of Life" HERE: https://orcd.co/arcoflife The concept behind Arc of Life is, in keeping with the progressive rock philosophy, to craft creative, challenging, and ear-pleasing music that pushes boundaries.  Billy Sherwood describes the music as, “interesting, with well-crafted songs, performed with precision and grace. All songs feature memorable melodies and lyrics that take the listener on a sonic adventure. Dynamic arrangements with peaks and valleys... it's all there.” The other idea behind the band is that YES would be a clear point of influence. But while YES is clearly the main point of comparison, a lot of musical similarities can be drawn to describe Arc Of Life’s grandiose and epic approach to music.  In Jon Davison’s words, “Each YES member understands and supports when others may desire to explore and thrive along new artistic avenues. We then each find further inspiration to bring back to the YES fold.” But all the descriptions are best left to the listeners to discern for themselves as repeat listens will reveal more layers.  Arc Of Life is a true garden of delight for progressive rock fans and the band is looking forward to performing live. “Once the world gets over the COVID hump, Arc Of Life will be planning as much touring as we can fit in between YES and our other projects. Quite honestly, we’re all chomping at the bit to be out performing again!” concludes Jon Davison. Tracklist: 1. Life Has A Way2. Talking With Siri3. You Make It Real4. Until Further Notice5. The Magic Of It All6. Just In Sight7. I Want To Know You Better8. Locked Down9. Therefore We Are10. The End Game Line-up: Billy Sherwood - Bass and vocalsJon Davison - VocalsJay Schellen - DrumsJimmy Haun - GuitarsDave Kerzner - Keyboards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_84UCEDeEkc What is Trevor Rabin's film music like?What do we need to listen to?What do Arc Of Life sound like?

Produced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier Trevor in rock mode This week marks something of a departure for us here at YMP Towers. In our ever-popular what did they do next series, we have reached the point where Trevor Rabin left the band after the Talk Tour in 1995. He went off to pursue his other musical avenue of choice - film scores. So that means we will be listening not to a rock or progressive album next week but a film soundtrack. That should be very interesting. We are also hoping to have Julia from the fabulous Rabinesque blog with us next week because she knows rather more than we do about Trevor’s soundtrack work and should be able to fill in a lot of the details for us. We also have a 2 pence this week about the new band, Arc Of Life. Here's their first album, courtesy of Daniel Krohn who found it on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Arc-Life/dp/B08NF334WL/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Arc%20of%20life&qid=1607095396&s=music&sr=1-1&pldnSite=1&fbclid=IwAR0Pu57j7o5Ec3IjXCgh8LgtqMX8LEHseZd0IjqFq-Dleo1Dwzh3zWcPDiw https://yessolidmentalgrace.com/2020/12/04/a-next-generation-yes/ Simon Barrow's blog post on the possibilities of Arc Of Life So, what did Trevor do next?What do we need to listen to?What is Arc Of Life?
