We talk about London in the 70s and Tormato with music Journalist and Yes book author, Chris Welch - 559

Produced by Ken Fuller, Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius

This week we met the delightful Chris Welch who wrote one of the most important books about Yes, Close To The Edge - The Yes Story. Journalist for Melody Maker, Kerrang and many other publications, Chris has known the band from its earliest days and we very much enjoyed talking to him about those days in the early 70s as well as his trip to Advision to see the band recording Tormato. It was a  great conversation so we hope you enjoy it as well.

• What was it like in London in the early 70s?
• Did punk kill prog?
• How was the atmosphere in Advision?
