Episode 138  – Yes Part 20, Awaken

On the heels of our episode ranking Yes epic songs, we thought we would take some time to dive deeper into (perhaps) our favorite Yes epic, Awaken.  We considered five different versions spanning some 40 years.  While there are many more that we could have ranked (and that we listened to), we focused on the original studio recording and the live versions from the Union, House of Yes, ARW, and Yes50 tours.  These different versions each provide their own charms and experiences.  The good news is that there is no tiring of this classic track.

Special Episode – Tony Kaye

Tom, Ken and Joe have the honor to interview Yes founding member Tony Kaye.  Tony shares with us his perspective of the beginning of progressive rock in the late 60’s and the resurgence of Yes in early 80’s.  Tony shares some insights from his Hall of Fame career including his return to Yes for the 50th anniversary (and beyond).   Having worked with some of the best, most innovative producers in the world Tony has experiences few can rival.  What’s that Tony?  You were involved in Def Leppard’s Pyromania?  Do tell!  This interview with a prog rock legend and gentleman is everything we could have hoped for.  We hope you enjoy!
