Yes 90125 Bluray

Yes-like in every possible aspect, Chris Squire's Fish out of Water is an album that's typical of his band's progressive formula: softened keyboard extensions a la Patrick Moraz, steady yet atmospheric percussion work from Bill Bruford, and a smattering of flute and saxophone that accompanies a small orchestra, which includes effective horn and harp work…

YES are the most successful and longest lived of all the progressive rock bands that appeared in the late sixties / early seventies, still releasing albums and playing to packed houses nearly forty years from their formation. This 5CD box set includes their three most recent studio albums: "Open Your Eyes", "The Ladder" and "Magnification" plus their 1994 album "Talk". The fifth CD sees the first ever release of highlights from their live concert at Montreux in 2003.

When Yes joined forces with a symphony orchestra for the first time on their 2001 studio album, Magnification, the most common reaction was probably "I thought they'd done it already," since the legendary outfit's cerebral, progressive rock had frequently seemed more steeped in classical music than rock itself. But, as if to prove that they are in fact a rock band, the almost seminal lineup of Yes – Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Alan White, minus ever-mercurial keyboardist Rick Wakeman – subsequently took to the concert trail accompanied by the European Festival Orchestra, conducted by Wilhelm Keitel, for a tour during which they wisely mixed just a smattering of new songs in among many of their most beloved '70s masterworks…

9012Live is the video release of a concert by the progressive rock group Yes recorded live at Northlands Coliseum in Edmonton, Canada, on September 28 and 29, 1984. It mostly features material from the band's reunion album 90125, which was a major success for the band…

With 1987's BIG GENERATOR, Yes continued in the synthesizer-laden, production-heavy mode that had made the band's comeback album, 90125, such a success. While some diehard fans found this era of Yes to be in contrast to the band's previous classically influenced art rock, this incarnation of the band had plenty of the strong musicianship and fantastical imagination that had propelled the group to legendary status in the '70s. Indeed, producer Trevor Horn and the band succeeded in creating an intriguing sonic landscape that only Yes could conceive…

In 1985, British progressive rock legends Yes were making a major comeback following the success of their album 90125, and this concert film captured the band on-stage at the height of their powers, playing hits from that album as well as classics from their back catalog. Yes: 9012 Live features the lineup of Jon Anderson (vocals), Trevor Rabin (guitar and keyboards), Tony Kaye (keyboards), Chris Squire (bass), and Alan White (drums); songs include "Owner of a Lonely Heart," "I've Seen All Good People," "Leave It," "Changes," "Hold On," "Starship Trooper," and more. Notably, the film served as one of future indie-wunderkind Steven Soderbergh's first directorial credits.
