YES Yessongs (70s UK issue of the 1973 15-track triple live LP, housed in the second issue tri-fold picture sleeve with indent in the spine & artwork by Roger Dean with slightly different colour tone. Few live albums capture the sheer ambition, virtuosity and theatrical scope of progressive rock at its peak quite like Yessongs by Yes. Originally released in 1973, this sprawling triple LP stands as a monumental document of the bands early 70s ascendancy, drawing heavily from theclassic era albums The Yes Album, Fragile and Close To The Edge.Recorded during their 197273 tours, Yessongs finds the definitive line-up in full flight Jon Andersons ethereal vocals soar above Chris Squires thunderous, melodic basslines, while Steve Howe dazzles with intricate guitar work that shifts effortlessly between acoustic delicacy and electric fire. The rhythmic foundation laid by Bill Bruford (on earlier recordings) and Alan White (on later tracks) provides both precision and power, while Rick Wakemans virtuosic keyboard passages elevate the performances into the realm of the sublime.From the explosive opener Opening (Excerpt from Firebird Suite) through towering renditions of Heart Of The Sunrise, And You And I and the side-long epic Close To The Edge, the album captures Yes at their most expansive and daring. Each performance is stretched, reshaped and reimagined in the live setting, offering fans versions that many consider definitive.Presented in a lavish gatefold sleeve adorned with iconic artwork by Roger Dean, Yessongs is as visually striking as it is sonically immersive a true artefact of progressive rocks golden age. A cornerstone release that not only showcases the bands technical brilliance but also their ability to create transcendent, otherworldly musical journeys on stage. The sleeve carries some general shelfwear whilst the vinyl shows minimal signs of play K60045
