I think there are probably reasons both musical and not that led to Steve's departure.
As a musician I can say that I never know from one day to the next what is going to inspire me musically, so Steve may be taking a new direction in this regard. If he has a new focus in this regard then he is doing his Asia mates a service by moving on.

On this tour I had the chance to meet fans who were big fans of Steve's work with Yes and had followed that band for years. They told me that Steve was quite a private person and not that comfortable with meeting fans en masse as it were. Could be the meet and greets were getting to him.

Whatever the reason, I wish Steve the very best. I also look forward to hearing Sam on the new album. Young minds, fresh ideas and all that.

I agree that Astra was a fantastic album and I feel that we should expect nothing less with Valkyrie.
