Really enjoyable interview Phil, fascinating stories from Oliver and a really nice person
Phil, Excellent interview ! All the best from the U.S.A.
Another great interview with a great guy. Fascinating interview gripping from start to finish.
What a fun listen...Thanks for sharing.
Hi Phil, I love your interviews and your intelligent questions.
Thank you 🙏
A good interview, thank you for that. I am very much aware of his dad's musical works but know very little of what Oliver's done so it's good to have that insight - and I will certainly check out an album or two of his. He seems like a decent bloke too, I hope he follows in his dad's footsteps!
I didn't realise he'd played with Yes but then it's only on the non-Jon Anderson albums and I just haven't got around to checking those out yet. For me, Jon's vocals are an intrinsic part of Yes, I think I'd struggle with other vocalists in that band.
Smashing interview with Oliver, Phil and his new album does sound very interesting. I have a few of his solo albums and his works with Clive Nolan. His dad is very much my personal GOD! of the keyboards and always has been. Regarding Tormato I can see where he's coming from having got into the Yes via that album. However, having been into Yes way before that album came out I have to confess that it was like shock horror for me 😁😁😁. To be honest, my Yes collection these days stops at Relayer in 1974 and I would only identify "Awakening" on the Going For The One album as genuine Yes Music as they used to categorise it themselves. I do feel that "The Silent Wings Of Freedom" is quite a good song though and love Squire's bass on that track from the Tormato album.
Hi Phil are you going to be unboxing the new box set from Lene lovich this Friday it's called toy box
Yes I will be reviewing it. It will not be until next week though - Phil
PS. Are you going for that Camel box set? I pre-ordered it last weekend on Amazon when it hit £160 and I think it's now at £170, so I got it at the right time, I think.
Hi Terry, I would love to! I don’t have the funds at the moment so it might be a while.
@@NowSpinningMagazine Yes, it's an expensive month! I have always been "Nutty for Nektar" so I have to fork out for the "Remember The Future" box set - and I have to go for the Brinsley Schwarz one too as that fills a hole in my collection.
