The last time Anderson and Wakeman worked on a Yes album together was Keys to Ascension 2 so Mark and I take this opportunity to think about the studio tracks which are collected on the Keystudio album.

The most recent Yes studio album There's a huge amount going on in the extended world of Yes but Mark and I take some time out to look back at the most recent studio album and re-assess its merits.

I recorded this episode early in the week shortly before the news of Prince's death was announced. Another musical genius is gone. It's turning into a terrible year for our heroes. On the show, I have a chat with Mark Anthony K about Yes current obsession with playing whole albums live and we come to some conclusions...or maybe not...take a listen and then let us know what you think. Are all albums great in their entirety live? Should Yes persist with this approach? Should they also play a variety of other tracks?
