Back catalogue: All genres

Review: Yes's breakthrough third album, The Yes Album, marked a critical juncture in the band's creative life and featured Steve Howe's debut - with the breathtaking 'Clap'. Released in February 1971, the album has stood the test of time, reaching high in the UK charts and the Top 40 in the US. Key to their success was producer Eddy Offord, who would go on to helm several of Yes's masterworks. Wilson's remixes 'spatialize' the album's tracks, opening up the instrumentation and reducing muddiness, so tracks like 'Yours Is No Disgrace'' and 'Starship Trooper' can truly showcase the band's tight musicianship, with each instrument standing out clearly. Jon Anderson's vocals on 'Your Move' soar above Tony Kaye's keyboards, highlighting the album's sheer beauty. Now available on beautiful sea blue vinyl, The Yes Album continues to captivate with its timeless sound.

Review: Yes are back with its second collection of singles release with yessingles2. Progressive rock, known for its complex compositions and fusion of jazz and classical elements, has always maintained a cult status, challenging mainstream tastes. The genre's elaborate, lengthy arrangements often clash with the commercial demands of record labels. As a result, studio engineers and producers frequently faced the task of trimming down ten minute epics into radio-friendly, four minute versions. For many new listeners, this serves as an accessible introduction to the world of prog rock. Yessingles 2, released as part of Rhino's Rocktober series, offers a collection of these radio-friendly edits from the legendary band Yes. While diehard fans might prefer the original, uncut versions, this compilation provides a convenient entry point for those looking to explore Yes's intricate soundscapes without committing to the full-length compositions. It's a nod to the balancing act between artistic integrity and commercial appeal that has defined progressive rock since its inception.
