Anderson, Wakeman to release new cd

Yes!

listened to lot's of  it on line and sorry to say---it's not my cup of tea---a real rambling snooze fest.

Yes that's my thinking!  Anderson and Wakeman project will be touring and we'll play the nostalgia card by playing some old classics Yes songs with some new songs, where that i am not sure if it's going to be more interesting then some new Yes songs. I am not the greatest fan of Wakeman or Anderson solo projects made in the past. But i am curious to see what they can do together.

Here's a link on the planet rock web site, where they talk about the tour and new songs.

I can almost guarantee you. Now, the cheesy, hippie lyrics might keep me from enjoying it as much as I would have with classic Anderson lyrics, but the music will be good.

Whoa, exactly what I was thinking! Really can't wait for this one. Probably my most anticipated release for the next year or so.

Another Yes West versus Yes East? No, probably not.

^ I kinda agree, But Trevor Horn producing the new Yes album sounds interesting. I think the Anderson/Wakeman release with be " Lite" but worth checking out all the same.

For me, Wakeman has released more 5 star albums on his solo career than Yes. And those 5 star albums from Yes feature Rick Wakeman.

I think it's already available during their concerts. I don't know if they will release it in a more widespread version later on. However, I think they will release a CD/DVD of their concerts, perhaps they will have all the new songs there too.

They used to have some information at Yes's official site, but they just took it out. However, you may be able to find more information at Jon Anderson's and Rick Wakeman's official sites.
