Why did Yes want Benoit David? – 587

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Ken Fuller, Wayne Hall and Jeffrey Crecelius This week Mark and I return to our 'Why did Yes want...' series and it's time to consider Benoit David. Jon Anderson had been unwell and so the band needed to find what Chris Squire referred to as an 'understudy', presumably with the intention of Jon returning at some point. How did the band find Benoit? How did he know the music? What was he up to just before joining Yes? Let us know if you agree with us! Available now!
