Why Did Yes Want...The Buggles? - Part 2 - 555

Produced by Ken Fuller, Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius

We are finally back with part 2 of our look at the Buggles and why Yes might have wanted them. For this, we’ve been listening to the first album from the duo, The Age Of Plastic, seeing if we can pick up some pointers. As usual, it was a revealing and enjoyable experience and quite topical as Trevor Horn’s autobiography is being advertised across all of my social media at the moment. Let us know what you think of our views in the show notes for this week.

• Does the album sound dated in 2022?
• Is there more to it than just Video Killed The Radio Star?
• Is it obvious why Yes wanted Downes and Horn to join them?

Take a listen to the episode and then let us know what you think!
