The Living Tree is an album by Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman (as Anderson/Wakeman), both previously members of progressive rock band Yes.
The album was initially sold only as a souvenir during their UK tour in Autumn 2010, titled "The Anderson Wakeman Project 360" and from the Gonzo Multimedia online store.
When the album was first announced, it was intended to comprise re-workings of classic Yes songs and at least 9 new songs,[2] four of which were featured on the previous (inaugural) Anderson/Wakeman tour in 2006.
Wakeman stated that he would record the backing tracks at his studio in England and that these would be sent to Anderson in the US to record his vocals.
These tracks were all then to be sent back to Wakeman for mixing and mastering.
