Info zu Yes 50 Live

Das vergangene Jahr über feierten YES ihr 50. Jubiläum mit einer ausgedehnten Tour, die Shows in Europa, Nordamerika und Japan umfasste. In diesem Jahr sind die Rock and Roll Hall of Famers mit einem neuen Doppel- Livealbum zurück, das während ihrer Jubiläumstour mitgeschnitten wurde.

YES 50 LIVE bietet 13 Live-Auftritte von Schlüsselsongs, die Yes zur nachhaltigsten, ehrgeizigsten und virtuosesten Progressive-Band der Rockgeschichte gemacht haben. Was diese Sammlung noch außergewöhnlicher macht, ist die Anzahl der Bandmitglieder, die vorgestellt werden. Tatsächlich wurde ein Großteil des Albums in Philadelphia aufgenommen, einer Show, in der 10 Mitglieder von Yes während der Zugabe auf der Bühne standen (aktuelle Mitglieder) Steve Howe, Geoff Downes, Alan White, Billy Sherwood und Jon Davison, Jay Schellen sowie (ehemalige Mitglieder) Tony Kaye, Patrick Moraz, Tom Brislin und Trevor Horn. Patrick Moraz featuring on Soon und Tony Kaye on Yours ist keine Schande, kein Karussell und kein Raumschiff Trooper.

Mit Songs von 10 unterschiedlichen Studioalben weben die Live-Performances auf YES 50 LIVE mehrere Epochen aus der Bandgeschichte nahtlos ineinander. Einige der wichtigsten Arbeiten sind auf der Sammlung vertreten, darunter „Starship Trooper” vom „The Yes Album“ (1971), „Roundabout” von „Fragile“ (1971) und der Titeltrack von „Close to the Edge“ (1972). Daneben hält das Album jedoch auch einige der experimentierfreudigsten Werke von YES bereit, u.a. ein Auszug aus „The Ancient”, ein Track von „Tales From Topographic Oceans“ (1973), und „Soon”, das den finalen Abschnitt in „The Gates Of Delirium” auf dem 1974er-Album „Relayer“ markiert.

Yes

Yes is an English rock band who achieved worldwide success with their progressive, art, and symphonic style of rock music. Regarded as one of the pioneers of the progressive genre, Yes are known for their lengthy songs, mystical lyrics, elaborate album art, and live stage sets. No fewer than 18 musicians have been a part of the band's line-up, with its current form comprising singer Jon Davison, bassist Chris Squire, guitarist Steve Howe, drummer Alan White, and keyboardist Geoff Downes. Yes have sold close to 50 million albums worldwide, including 13.5 million certified units in the United States.

Alan White
Alan is considered by many to be one of the greatest rock drummers of all-time. With forty-plus years of performance experience and appearances on over fifty albums, Alan's dossier reads like a who's-who of rock legends. With his consummate professionalism and easy-going nature, Alan continues to be an inspiration to fellow musicians as well as fans.

Chris Squire
Chris was born in London, England in March 1948. Chris began his musical career as a choirboy, which gave Chris a particular insight into choir arrangement and vocal techniques that was to follow him throughout his career. Chris formed YES in 1968 with vocalist Jon Anderson, and is the only member of YES to appear on every studio album.

Geoff Downes
Geoff Downes was born into a musical family in Stockport, England, where his father had been organist and choirmaster at a church. Geoff went to Leeds School of Music in 1971, graduating in 1975, thus becoming the first member of Yes to graduate with a degree in music.

Steve Howe
Born in 1947, Steve began teaching himself to play the guitar at the age of 12, and lists Bill Haley, Les Paul, Jimmy Byant, Speedy West, Barney Kessel, and Chet Atkins as his influences. Steve first joined YES in 1970, and has also been a member of The Syndicats, Bodast, Tomorrow, Asia and GTR. A prolific performer, Steve released his 19th solo album in 2010.
