CLASSIC YES includes extra live tracks originally issued on a bonus 7" EP as part of the original LP package.

Recorded between 1970 and 1978. Originally released on Atlantic (19320).

How do you effectively anthologize on a single record the career of a band known for side-long epics? You either pick some of their shorter songs, or their finest, most representative epics. Somehow, this 1981 compilation, which encapsulates the band's '70s career, manages to do both.

The sparkling ballad "Wonderous (sic) Stories" and the poignant "Heart of the Sunrise," with its shifting dynamics and heartfelt vocal, are Yes at their song-oriented best. Longer, multi-part "suites" like CLOSE TO THE EDGE's "And You and I" and THE YES ALBUM's "Starship Trooper" present the more complex, structurally sophisticated side of the band, where the interaction between Steve Howe, Chris Squire and either Rick Wakeman or Tony Kaye is the key to the elaborate arrangements. It could have easily been a double or triple album, but for a concise snapshot of Yes in the '70s, CLASSIC YES fills the bill nicely.

Digitally remastered by Joe Gastwirt (Ocean View Digital).

Yes includes: Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman, Bill Bruford, Alan White, Tony Kaye.

Producers: Yes, Eddie Offord.

Compilation producer: Chris Squire.

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars As good today as they were in the 70's
I was the first in my group of friends to discover the Yes group way back when. With their riveting, driving guitar and soaring harmonies and ethereal approach, noone could touch them. This album doesn't disappoint in any way. Right off the bat with Heart of the Sunrise through Roundabout and Long Distance Runaround to I've seen all Good People they grab you and just never let go. It is truly classic stuff.

This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine." Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge ...

Classic Yes
CD $6.39  4.2 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
When Jon Anderson rejoined Yes after DRAMA, he was inserting himself into an unusual situation. Keyboardist Geoff Downes and longtime guitarist Steve Howe had left to form Asia with prog rock vets John Wetton (King Crimson, Roxy Music etc.) and Carl Palmer (ELP). Chris Squire and Alan White brought original Yes keysman Tony Kaye back and recruited vibrant young Australian guitarist/vocalist/composer Trevor Rabin. The quartet had already begun writing and recording, but Anderson was able to insert himself into the proceedings with such ease that the new combination sounds completely natural on 90125. Mostly, the band was concerned with trimming the musical fat to keep pace with the onslaught of the 1980s. Thus, tracks like "Owner of a Lonely Heart" and "City of Love" are full of samples, splices and almost funky beats and riffs. The unusual time changes and complex riffs of tunes like "Changes" and "Cinema" leave little doubt that this is still a Yes album, but the band succeeds in giving their sound a contemporary overhaul on 90125. A stunning self-reinvention by a band that many had given up for dead, ...

Classic Yes
CD $12.99  4 stars Audio Samples
Though a commercial blip in its day, Krautrock has become one of the most enduring movements in music history, with countless indie acts namedropping the genre's most famous as influences. Now, as then, Hamburg's Faust gets the least love. Revisited Records hopes to change that with this long overdue reissue of the band's classic second long-player, SO FAR. One of the worst commercial failures in the history of Virgin Records, SO FAR was a slight capitulation to the marketplace after their mellow-harshing debut: there are some hints of accessible grooves (the mesmerizing opener, "It's A Rainy Day, Sunshine Girl") and melodicism (the Jimmy Page-ish guitar and flute of "On the Way to Adamae") to pull in the faint of heart. Otherwise, SO FAR builds on the drastic pastiches of the first album: proto-industrial soundscapes evaporate into dreamier, layered ones and back again throughout the album's nine tracks. Faust didn't have the groove of Can, the thrust of Neu!, or ...

Suns Of Arqa Solar Activity CDs  (2001) (Import) Hong Kong

Classic Yes
CD $14.25
SOLAR ACTIVITY compiles tracks from 14 different Suns Of Arqa albums. Released in 2001, 22 years after the band was established, this sprawling two-disc anthology collects some of the brightest moments from the deep and varied Suns of Arqa catalog. Those who love experimental worldbeat fusion, the Asian underground, and avant dub in general will want to seek out most, if not all, of the many titles represented here, but fans in the U.S. (where most of them are difficult to find) will welcome this package as the only way to get much of the material represented, as will anyone looking for a handy overview and introduction. The song titles hint at the kind of sonic and thematic variety you'll find here: "Acid Tabla Dub" (mixed and co-produced by the legendary Adrian Sherwood, a longtime Suns of Arqa supporter), "Basant Alap," "Children of Jamma" (presented here in a remix by the Orb), "There Is No Danger Here" (which features a creepy spoken word vocal). There is one ...
