Chris Squire pictured in the booklet of The Word Is LiveProduced by Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill GovierIt’s another week of normality, courtesy of the YMP. I hope you are well and coping with the current situation.This week in a bit of a departure from the usual format, Mark and I took a look at some of the sleeve notes which come with Yes records, CDs and so on. We both choose our favourite 3 examples and talk quite a bit about the different kinds there have been through the years. There’s an invitation to suggest your own favourites on the show notes for this episode and also the news that we will be speaking to Sid Smith next week on the show. In case you are unaware, Sid recently updated his essential King Crimson book and is also the author of many essays for sleeve notes including the Steven Wilson Yes remixes. We are very much looking forward to that conversation.* What different styles of sleeve notes are included with Yes albums?* Which are the best?* Which are our favourites?Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!If you would like to support the Yes Music Podcast financially and also have access to exclusive activity and opportunities, there is a special page you can use to sign up and 2020 is the time to join us:Become a Patron!Show notes and links:YMP Patrons:Producers:* Jeffrey Crecelius* Preston Frazier* Bill Govier and* Wayne HallPatrons:Aaron SteelmanDave OwenMark James LangPaul TomeiJoost MaglevDavid HeydenMartin KjellbergPaul WilsonBob MartilottaLindMichael O'ConnorPeter HearndenBrian SullivanDavid PannellMiguel FalcãoLobate ScarpChris BandiniDavid WatkinsonNeal KaforeyRachel HadawayCraig EstenesDemPaul HailesMark 'Zarkol' BaggsDoug CurranRobert NasirFergus CubbageScott ColomboFred BarringerScott SmithGeoff BailieSimon BarrowGeoffrey MasonStephen LambeGuy R DeRomeSteve DillHenrik AntonssonSteve PerryHogne Bø PettersenSteve RodeIanNBSteve ScottJamie McQuinnSteven RoehrKen FullerTerence SadlerMichael HanderhanTim StannardJimTodd DudleyJohn CowanTony HandleyJohn HoldenJoseph CottrellJohn ParryKeith HoisingtonJohn ThomsonWilliam HayesBarry GorskyRobert and DavidPlease subscribe!If you are still listening to the podcast on the website, please consider subscribing so you don’t risk missing anything:Subscribe on AndroidListen on StitcherTheme musicThe music I use is the last movement of Stravinsky's Firebird Suite.
