No Jon no Yes? Well as luck would have it, there's a Jon in the group currently.

No Jon no Yes? Well as luck would have it, there's a Jon in the group currently. Yes , Jon in the group. But as sadly he's not a good one . Now let's look at the band. Singer. A singer who's doing an impersonation of the singer of a founder and probably the greatest lyricist in Prog history . The Bass player. Don't know who it is , but he's no replacement for one of Progs greatest Bass player's and a founder member. Steve Howe. Let's be honest here His glory days have passed him by . So much so he's been just a guitar player since he returned from his days in Asia . Keyboard. Geoff Downes . Not Rick . I've never been a flag bearer for Rick but he's been Yes's best and man he's funny . Drums . Alan White . Is it Alan ? He's had ill health for many years and I'm surprised he's not called it a day . It's sad that they have to use the Yes mantle to sell a few extra albums and I'm sure they can not be short of a bob or two to still bring out "sounds like Yes " albums . I could be wrong it may be a good album and I can not wait to Review it ! The song , The Ice Bridge? Not got me excited . Edit bit . Billy Sherwood ! Yes , didn't they dump him and then bring him back ! I remember him on The Ladder tour . But for the life of me I can't remember what instrument he played. I also remember he was the first out of the stage door after the Gig and I got his autograph and he just hung around and he got "When's Jon coming out ?" throw at him . Nice bloke though

Good interview I listened to half and will definitely finish listening. Made me think of when I started collecting back in the mid 50's, 78's by Fats and Little Richard. Wasn't too big an Elvis fan back then, but I did like his music. Buddy Holly & Chuck Berry I still have my old 78's sixty years later! His part in the interview where you got to collect, after awhile, everything an artist has done is really true. I have every 78 Hank Williams Sr. released (50) except the first four on Sterling which are expensive now and were hard to find back then. But I was lucky when I got a job at a record warehouse and got to meet the salesman for the diff. record companies and they would give me promo records of the artists latest recordings. I have a bunch of Dylan's which are quite expensive now. He was right up there with the Beatles for me back then and everyone else was second. So I still have about three thousand LP records in my collection and sold or gave away about that number to friends.

Glad to see you have resurrected the prog rock thread Mr K. this live version of 'Routine' is fantastic and Ninet Tayeb's scream at 7.19 is spine chilling.

You carnt beat a bit of Prog !
Looking forward to Wilson`s new album . I did enjoy Future Bites and I know Wilson likes to mix it about and knows you can not just do Prog , Prog , Prog, but this is the 2nd track from the new album and it reeks Prog ! Wilson is Prog ! As much as he may not care about upsetting his fans and going down different styles his entire audience are Prog fans . Anyway ... Routine is a masterpiece and every time I hear it, it sends shivers down the ol`spine .
Thinking about what will be the album my of 2023 , and the more likely it will be Wilson I have I.D. Entity by Riverside at the top of a very small pile so far . Here is my fav track from the album
