Geoff Downes on #Yes50 and Topographic Drama – 305

YES-Topographic Drama Produced by Michel Arsenault, Wayne
Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier. We had the absolute
pleasure of welcoming Yes keyboard player Geoff Downes onto the
show this week to talk about the forthcoming #Yes50 celebrations
and the wonderful, new Topographic Drama - Live Across America
album. Geoff shares his thoughts on the inclusion of Tony Kaye in
the concerts on the 50th Anniversary tour and how he expects it to
work. We also listen in depth to the new live album and share our
thoughts on that. What does the new album sound like? What are the
performances like? How does Geoff see the Tony Kaye special guest
situation working? Listen to the episode then let us know what you

last movement of Stravinsky's Firebird Suite. This has been used as
introduction music at many Yes concerts. My theme music is not take
