Album Review: The Anderson Ponty Band - "Better Late Than Never" (8/10)

This pairing of former Yes frontman Jon 
Anderson and jazz-fusion violinist Jean-
Luc Ponty has been a long time coming. 
Not only do you get two for the price of
 one, with the collaboration of each artist
 reimagining the other’s music, but the package contains a live in-studio audio disc and
 a concert DVD. In particular, the live DVD was recorded in 2014 at The Wheeler Opera House in Aspen, CO and features great post-production as well as, of course, classic tunes. Anderson seems fit and in fine voice and there are some inspired solos from Ponty. It’s a solid effort that, for the most part, should satisfy fans of both artists.

Score: 8 out of 10
