All,

From the official 'Yes' website, Geoff Downes has rejoined the group, replacing Oliver Wakeman on keyboards.

Their new album 'Fly From Here' is also due for release shortly.

The band are also touring the States with Prog outfit 'Styx' this summer.

The full press release can be read here : http://yesworld.com/ywpr_summertour.html

Enjoy.

Darran

From what I understand, Oliver was told he was being replaced. He did not ask to leave the group.

Yeah, I'd heard a similar report. Unfortunately, it doesn't totally surprise me to be honest considering the group's history on such matters.

Interesting times for Yes fans coming up !!! with a new solo album "Survival And Other Stories" from Jon Anderson in June and then the new "Fly From Here" album from the band in July. Would be nice to hear the albums here on SA !! Smiley
