Yes The Yes Album 2023

Remastered Sound, Rarities, Two Previously Unreleased Concerts, And A New Dolby Atmos Mix By Steven Wilson.

Sonia, Love Train (The Philly Album) was scheduled for release but was suddenly pulled back and most copies were destroyed, leaving just a few CDs that had already gone to shops in circulation. The album has never been officially released on CD or download, until now. Remastered by the original producer Steve Levine to the highest standards, we are incredibly proud to offer this album to the public for the first time across these editions. The tracks are all affiliated with the amazing releases from the Philadelphia International label, but completely re-imagined and delivered by Sonia, showcasing a soulful side to her vocals, that had been previously unheard. The “B” side to the 90’s single (“Wake Up Everybody”), “Nowhere Left To Hide” has been added as a bonus track.

Best known for his work with Racer X and Mr. Big, there’s no denying that Paul Gilbert is a phenomenally talented guitarist. The Dio Album features 12 covers (plus Japanese bonus track) of some of the late legend Ronnie James Dio's most iconic works with a certain twist: Gilbert has replaced the would-be vocals with verbatim lead guitar parts. Forged out of love and admiration for Ronnie James Dio's music, Gilbert's inspiration for a Dio covers record came to him unexpectedly, but nonetheless transformed into a unique collection of songs worthy of a sea of metal horns.

Four CD set. Features both of the concerts performed by Rick Wakeman, the English Rock Ensemble and the English Chamber Choir at the London Palladium. In February 2023, Rick Wakeman performed two sell out concerts at the London Palladium which celebrated his most acclaimed work as a solo artist and as a member of Yes. The first concert saw Rick Wakeman, the English Rock Ensemble and the English Chamber Choir, conducted by Guy Protheroe perform his first solo work, ‘The Six Wives of Henry VIII’ and ‘The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table’, while the second night’s concert featured a set of classic Yes material and ‘The Meeting’ (originally performed by Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman And Howe), along with the multi-platinum-selling solo work ‘Journey to the Centre of the Earth’. The concerts were some of the most memorable of Rick’s career.
