More on Yes keyboard players – 278

Yes logo by Roger Dean - of course! Produced by Preston Frazier,
David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault. After a
suggestion by Jeremy North, we look at live performances by Yes
keyboard players including Kaye playing Wakeman and Wakeman playing
Kaye. There's a great video doing the rounds of four Yes keyboard
players playing the same Close to the Edge solo and it was a lot of
fun to look at that carefully. Mark also reviews the debut Flash
record which features Tony Kaye soon after he left Yes for the
first time and we enter the dangerous waters of what Yes and ARW
need to do (if anything) to legitimise their claim to the name of
'Yes'. Who plays the best Close to the Edge solo? How do Rick
Wakeman and Tony Kaye approach each other's parts? Which approaches
work best? Listen to the episode then let us know what you think!
