Rick Wakeman has rejoined Yes

Rick Wakeman, rejoined with Yes, was lucky when his Range Rover (a $12,000 version of a Land Rover) lost traction on an icy mountain road in Montreux, Switzerland, and plunged into a crevasse.

"We were about to stop the car and fix the snow chains when we skidded," explained Wakeman. "There were some children tobogganing on the road ahead, a bloody long drop on one side and a deep crevasse on the other. I opted for the crevasse."

Wakeman and his road manager sustained bruises but were otherwise unhurt. Wakeman's new solo album, White Rock -- soundtrack to a film about the 1976 Winter Olympics -- is set for release this month.
