It's nice to see the older and not-so-older prog generations collaborating (well, 12 years difference in age). I will be looking forward to this one.

Let's just hope he doesn't dilute his creativity with so many projects at the same time. Through the 80's and 90's and he had been having trouble getting good songs for just a Yes album every few years (and in 00's not even that). |

I probably shouldn't have high hopes for this, but I do. This collaboration, with the stated goals of making progressive music in the spirit of long-form Yes compositions, is at least aiming toward the goals I would like to hear. Pairing the two of them might just refocus each musician away from the wrong turns they have taken in recent years. Jon Anderson's lyrics became less poetic and more preachy and pop-oriented since the 80's. Roine Stolt in his work with both Agents of Mercy and the Flower Kings has become more negative and gloomy, moods which do not make the best use of his talent, however serious the sentiments might be. Here's hoping that we get an album which is spiritual, positive, and most of all, filled with music to delight the ear and mind! ------------- sad creature nailed upon the coloured door of time |

Such a perfect pairing these two, I bet Stolt was rapt at getting to collaborate with one of his idols. I have a question though - Do anyone know if Roine be singing on it at all, or will he just be providing a lot of the instrumentation and letting Jon take the vocals? |

iTunes and Amazon CD have a different track listing. I do not know if it was sliced and moved around on all media, or just for downloads.

It appears Amazon and iTunes conflated the main and the sub-tracks. Here's how the songs play out... Invention of Knowledge (22:52) 1. Pt I. Invention (09:41) 2. Pt II. We Are Truth (06:41) 3. Pt III. Knowledge (06:30) Knowing (17:48) 4. Pt I. Knowing (10:31) 5. Pt II. Chase and Harmony (07:17) Everybody Heals (13:09) 6. Pt I. Everybody Heals (07:36) 7. Pt II. Better by Far (02:03) 8.Pt III. Golden Light (03:30) 9.

Did they really have to create a song entitled "We Are Truth"? I will probably get the album, but may avert my eyes from the track listing.

I do not have it yet, as the release date is 24 June. However, the spiritual leanings of both protagonists is so well known as to not require any repetition here. Thus a title such as this, and the beliefs I anticipate being included, come as no surprise whatsoever, and will be welcomed by me. ------------- Enhance your life.

| Heard a track on Planet Rock the other day. Its a bit ploddy if I'm honest but it does sound like seventies Yes so I suspect I will end up buying it. However it will be a pity if it distracts away from what is an impressive year so far with the likes of Haken ,Headspace and Frost* kicking some serious proggy arse. |

I love both guys work, immensely ! But I have the same huge appreciation for Hackett and Squire and suffered a somewhat deception with Squackett. So this time I'm holding my expectations low and waiting calmly to hear what comes out (it's only 2 weeks away, right?) Does anybody know if it will be available on bandcamp ? (or for what matters anywhere for download buy) |

It is incredibly rare for me to buy before hearing, but a low listing price on amazon and the attractive cover art sold me :) (^ I really enjoy the Squackett album and a lot of Hackett's recent output. ) |

I enjoy the Squackett one as well. As long as one does not go in to it expecting a combination of classic Genesis and Yes it can be a very enjoyable listen. ------------- -- Frank Swarbrick Belief is not Truth. |

60 Ratings so far, and the album is showing a very healthy 4.16/5.0 rating ! UNfortunately, we have no way of seeing how the album is doing in relation to the other Top Prog Releases of 2016 because the administrators have decided that the album doesn't belong in any Prog Sub-Genre, but as "Prog-Related" along with all the other Jon Anderson solo albums. Is this really a Jon Anderson solo album ? I haven't even listened to the whole thing yet, but it seems to me that Roine Stolt was responsible for most of the production and close to half of the writing and instrumentation of the whole album. Anderson/Stolt should have their own listing as far as I'm concerned....and while we're at it, the fact that Jon Anderson (solo) is listed as Prog-Related seems also pretty strange. It means that Jon /Solo is considered the same "genre" as Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, David Bowie, and Led Zeppelin !

I haven't found the evidence that it was an administrative decision on the part of the Stolt/Anderson release. Anyone can add albums to an existent entry, and it was not added by a collaborator. Adding artists/bands is done by Special Collaborators and requires suggesting to the appropriate team and then for the project to be approved by a team. I see that a suggestion thread was made (but before the release so I don't think it could have been evaluated then as a team must hear the music to evaluate). We'll see how that goes now. Hopefully sufficient music is readily available for evaluation (say streaming off their webpage or on youtube). As for the Jon Anderson entry, that placement is a very old one, and I think that entry may have been moved from the old Art Rock category, but I don't know (I don't know his music that well, though I have heard Olias and saw him perform with Kitaro). Speaking of David Bowie, he has music that I consider Crossover prog worthy, but opinions differ. I think he's well suited to Prog Related over all. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

The entry for the album is incorrect, regardless of the sub-genre. It is a dual effort between Jon and Roine, not a solo album. ------------- Enhance your life. Get down to www.lazland.org Now also broadcasting on www.progzilla.com Every Saturday, 4.00 p.m. UK time! |

| Absolutely obsessed with this album. It's actually almost the only thing I've listened to over the last seven days. It's so rich musically and lyrically that it still feels very fresh after so many dozens of listen-throughs. I've never been the biggest Yes/Anderson fan, but this one scratches me in all the right places. |

I can't see it being on Bandcamp but it is on Spotify so you can listen to it there with a free account. I've played the album a couple of times and enjoyed but I agree with someone else who said there's a bit too much of Anderson. The music sounds brilliant in places but sometimes I just want to listen to that and not the singing.
