Well, here we are - 14 years and 700 episodes of the Yes Music Podcast. Thank you to Miguel Falcão who has created the new jingles for 700 episodes and thank you to everyone who has sent messages of congratulation. I’ve inserted the audio ones fairly randomly throughout the show but I’ll start with a few written ones. Over on Twitter or X, Oliver Wakeman said, “A fantastic achievement. I’ve been fortunate to be a guest on a number of occasions. Congratulations!” Thank you Oliver. Julio Scissors (@captainjellico) said, “Congrats!  Love your show!” and Jon Anderson pic of the day (@JonAndersonpic1) also said, “Congrats!” Thank you both.

As you’ll hear, Mark and I had an enjoyable conversation about a particular Yes 700 topic and then there’s some actual music from Steve Howe. Stay tuned for that!

What Yes '700' topic have we come up with?

Who has sent messages of congratulation?

What Steve Howe music do we play?

A fantastic achievement. I’ve been fortunate to be a guest on a number of occasions.Congratulations! https://t.co/YwZYZfNMEX— Oliver Wakeman (@OliverWakeman) December 1, 2025
