Anyone for tennis – and a pint? In conversation with Yes drummer, Jay Schellen – 621

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller We were delighted to be able to speak to Jay Schellen this week about the upcoming Yes UK and Europe Tour and many other topics, particularly his relationship with the late, great Alan White. As you will hear, Jay's connections with Yes are numerous and he is a truly talented all-round musician, not 'just' a drummer. Stand by for surprising stories, tennis and visits to the pub... How did Jay find himself playing with so many Yes men? What did he learn from Alan White? What is it like playing with Downes, Howe, Davison and Sherwood? Let us know if you agree with us!
