‘We have a new album coming out’: Yes’ Steve Howe brushes aside Jon Anderson reunion talk

Steve Howe, some 10 years after Jon Anderson’s departure, is clearly getting a little peeved about having to talk about Yes’ departed co-founding frontman. Even more so when there is a new Yes album on the way.
The band will release its new Roy Thomas Baker-helmed studio effort Heaven and Earth on July 8, 2014. It’s Yes’ first with successor Jon Davison, who has been with Howe and Company since 2012. A newly announced summer tour will feature selections from the forthcoming project, while also presenting a pair of Anderson-era albums — Fragile and Close to the Edge — in their entirety.
Heaven and Hell is the successor to 2011′s Fly From Here, built around leftover material from a previous period without Anderson at the turn of the 1980s. Meanwhile, Anderson has moved on, as well. He’s toured and recorded with Rick Wakeman, also a Yes alum, and more recently formed his own supergroup.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
