"…he turned up at reception with a crow on his shoulder" and other tales from Advision with Peter Woolliscroft – 512
10 DIC. 2021 · Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
Mark and I met someone who can fill in a few more gaps in the Yes story this week. We managed to track down and speak to Peter Woolliscroft who was only a short time into his studio engineering career at Advision studio in London when Yes turned up to record Tormato. He shares his recollections of the sessions which are rich and extensive and it was a pleasure to welcome him to the show. Listen out for revelations about Tormato and a little bit about Peter’s extensive list of work with some of the biggest names in rock and pop.
* How were things set up at Advision for Yes?* Would it have been better to employ a producer?* Who walked into reception accompanied by an avian pal?
Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

The ‘flared trousers' of 70s drums – Chris Kimball talks about Alan White's North kit – 511
3 DIC. 2021 · Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
Dave Watkinson in RAK studios with Alan's kit and Jeremy North's wonderful Tourmato photos from Wembley, 1978:
Alan's North drums at RAK StudiosBefore the concertJon lends a percussive handSide view of the drumsA fantastic shot of keys and drums (spot the Birotron)Farewell Wembley!
This week Mark and I spoke to Chris Kimball about a 70s oddity in the Yes instrumental arsenal - Alan White's North drums. After restoring, playing and recording with these strange objects, Chris is ideally placed to explain why they look so weird and why drummers like Alan White were interested in using them.
It's another engrossing story from a very knowledgeable musician and it's packed with detail so I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
* Why are North drums shaped like that?* What were they made of?* Why did they disappear?
Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!
Some North Drums artifacts are available here -http://www.drumarchive.com/North/
I mention and highly recommend Gerard Bassols' book, The Musical Instruments of Progressive Rock which is available here in the UK and here in the US.

Going For The One in the studio and live – 510
26 NOV. 2021 · Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
This week Mark and I have had a great time re-watching 3 videos from the Going For The One era. As you may know, there is an extensive behind-the-scenes film of what went on at Mountain Studios in Montreux in 1976 and I was wondering if the feel of that process was evident in the following tour. So Mark suggested the film of Glasgow on that tour and I added the mash-up of the title song which takes film footage from several different concerts and matches it to a good quality soundtrack.
All 3 videos are embedded below. You might want to watch them before listening to us discuss our reactions.
* What was the mood like when Yes were recording Going For The One in Switzerland?* Did the melodica trio end up on the album or not?* Why did Rick Wakeman take his shoes and socks off in Glasgow and what did he do next?

Stephen Lambe and David Watkinson – YES in the 1980s – 509
19 NOV. 2021 · Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
As always, it was sheer delight to welcome Stephen Lambe and David Watkinson back onto the show this week to talk about their latest collaboration, YES in the 1980s.
It's a great book which goes into detail about the often tortuous journey of the band in the decade of excess. Solo albums and other groups closely associated with Yes are included in a volume which boasts 2 sets of full-colour photos as well as countless other illustrations, a lot of which are presented in printed format for the first time.
A must for all serious Yes fans (particularly the five per cent), the book is available now from Burning Shed at the link below.
* Why write a book about the decade which could - or should - have killed off progressive rock?* What hidden stories are uncovered?* What untaken paths would the authors like to have see Yes take in the 80s?
Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!

Oliver Wakeman's Tales – 508
12 NOV. 2021 · Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
It was a great pleasure to welcome back to the show former Yes keyboard player and prolific solo artist, Oliver Wakeman.
We asked him about some of his latest releases including Dark Fables, Tales From Gaslight and his soundtrack to Yendor.
It was particularly interesting to hear recollections of working with original Yes guitarist Peter Banks and Oliver also shared some remarkable tales from his Yes days including what happened when he first joined the band in Canada, what Chris Squire said to him and something to do with sellotaping two keyboard pedals together...
* Was Oliver's entry to the band smooth and straight-forward?* What was Peter Banks like to work with?* Why does Oliver keep coming back to epic structures and story-telling in his music?

What did they do next part 26b – Steve Howe – 507
5 NOV. 2021 · Steve Howe by William Mulryne
Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
In this second part of our look at what Steve Howe did next, Mark and I listen to his solo album, Spectrum.
It includes contributions from Tony Levin, Dylan Howe, Virgil Howe and Oliver Wakeman and features many fabulous examples of Steve's virtuosity and versatility.
* How does this rank among Steve's solo albums?* What are the contributions of the 'guests' like?* Is that 'Hour of Need'?

What did they do next part 26a – Steve Howe – 506
29 OCT. 2021 · Steve Howe by William Mulryne
Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
In a break from our very well-received technical episodes, Mark and I return this week to the what did they do next series.
We are still in the so-called YES hiatus period of 2005-ish and we have just two band members yet to consider, the first being Steve Howe. SO we’ve taken a look around the various sources to see what Steve was up to at this point and one of the most useful was, perhaps unsurprisingly, his autobiography, All My Yesterdays.
So, what do you think we chose to talk about this week and listen to next week? You will need to be a bit of a hard-core Steve Howe fan to know the answer, I suppose, but keep listening and see if you are correct then take the opportunity to listen yourself this week and then see how our opinions differ from yours next week. Do let us know, of course.
* What was Steve up to now?* Who was he working with?* What Yes connections can we discover?

Miguel Falcão takes us through Chris Squire's setup for Tormato – 505
22 OCT. 2021 · Produced by Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius
A small selection from my Tormato collection
I asked our friend Miguel Falcão to tell me a bit about how Chris Squire achieved such a remarkable bass sound for Tormato. Instead of sending me a few bullet points, Miguel was kind enough to record a complete audio description of the technical minutiae of the master's solution. Mark and I listen to this amazing in-depth piece and discuss a few of the points Miguel makes.
Many thanks to Miguel and if you haven't heard his staggeringly accurate Yes bass covers, then you are missing out a great deal. See the links below to remedy that immediately.
* How did Chris Squire achieve 'that' sound for Tormato?* What technology did he employ?* Was the approach the same on every song on Tormato?
Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!
