Con Más Nostalgia Que Sorpresa Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown Portada del fonograma Fly from here, de la banda de rock Yes. Autor: Juventud Rebelde Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:12 pm Con más nostalgia que sorpresa Publicado: Miércoles 27 julio 2011 | 08:04:48 pm. Publicado por: Joaquín Borges-Triana Entre las bandas de rock que más han hecho por el género, sin discusión alguna figura Yes, ensamble inglés fundado en 1969. En su abundante discografía, siempre habrá que agradecerle álbumes como Close to the edge, Fragile o Going for the one, tres fonogramas de obligatoria consulta para el que desee comprender el sonido de una época quedada atrás y que inevitablemente asocio a la voz de Jon Anderson. Yes ha sido testigo de múltiples encuentros y desencuentros en las filas de sus integrantes, con lo que solo Chris Squire, bajista, vocalista y diríase que horcón de la agrupación, es el único que ha participado en todos los álbumes de la banda. Ahora, tras diez años sin publicar material nuevo, el viernes 1ro. de julio a través del sello Frontiers Records se puso en circulación Fly from here, propuesta discográfica que desde su aparición ha generado diversos criterios. Gracias a Juan Raúl Fernández, editor del portal Cuba-metal, ya ha llegado hasta mí la música de este CD. Tengo que decir que la primera audición del material me dejó bastante confundido. Como expresé anteriormente, para mí Yes es sinónimo de Jon Anderson, más allá de admitir que Drama (1980), único trabajo del grupo en que él no estuvo presente, es un muy buen disco. En Fly from here, el lugar de Jon es ocupado por el canadiense Benoit David, cantante que por mucho tiempo ha sido la figura frontal de una agrupación denominada Close to the edge, una banda organizada como tributo a Yes y en la que Benoit asumía el rol de Anderson. Como que este último es inigualable, de entrada rechacé el nuevo material de Yes. Una segunda escucha del CD hizo que me reconciliase con el mismo, al oírlo desde la perspectiva de comprender que se trata de un disco de canciones hechas por una banda con un largo historial y una actual propuesta que ya no persigue sorprender a nadie, pues lo que les interesa es la recreación de su sonido clásico y hacerlo bien reconocible para los admiradores, aunque ello implique la repetición de ciertas fórmulas. Producido por Trevor Horn, viejo asociado de Yes en trabajos anteriores como el exitoso fonograma 90125, su propósito manifiesto era remedar lo llevado a cabo en Drama, por lo que él y Chris Squire optaron por armar el proyecto a partir de una pieza titulada You can fly from here, compuesta alrededor de 1980 y que no llegó a incluirse en Drama, pero sí se interpretó en conciertos e incluso se registró en el triple álbum en vivo The World is live. Con una alineación conformada por los aludidos Chris Squire y Benoit David, así como por Steve Howe a la guitarra y coros, el baterista Alan White y Geoff Downes detrás de los teclados, Yes nos brinda en Fly from here una suite al estilo de antiguas composiciones como Close to the edge y The gates of delirium. Así, lo primero que descubrimos es una overtura de alrededor de dos minutos, en la que el rol principal corre a cargo de Downes en las teclas y Howe en la presentación del tema desde la guitarra, con una sonoridad muy clásica a lo Yes y donde encontramos la magnificencia sonora que caracterizara al grupo en los 70. Entra entonces We can fly, la pieza más pegajosa de toda la grabación y que nos presenta a Benoit David en una vocalización muy animada, que de seguro hará que el tema se difunda ampliamente en la radio internacional. Con una preciosa intro de guitarra, Sad night at the airfield nos ofrece otra cara de la suite, también con estructura de canción y pasajes acústicos y eléctricos, que dan paso a Madman at the screens, poseedora de un sabor setentón y de unos coros que me hacen evocar los de Machina Messia, del álbum Drama. Llega entonces Bumpy ride, corte con algo de aires de funky y que nos lleva hasta We can fly reprise, coda de comienzo épico y donde se retoman motivos antes expuestos. La segunda parte del fonograma se arma con piezas cortas, en las que Squire asume mayor protagonismo en las funciones vocales, como en The man you always wanted me to be y Hour of need, esta última una balada a lo Anderson y cantada a dúo con David. De las restantes, Life on a film set es un corte melancólico y deviene el mejor momento para Benoit, mientras que Solitaire es el instrumental para el destaque de Howe, quien vuelve a brillar en los intercambios con Downes en Into the store, enérgico final para un CD lleno de buenas ideas, aunque transmita más nostalgia que sorpresa. http://www.juventudrebelde.cu/index.php/columnas/los-que-sonamos/2011-07-27/con-mas-nostalgia-que- sorpresa Juventud Rebelde | Diario de la juventud cubana Copyright © 2017 Juventud Rebelde.

  • Yes – Topographic Drama: Live Across America
    Yes – Topographic Drama: Live Across America (63:47, 73:01, 2CD, Rhino/Warner, 2017) Nicht wenige langjährige Bewunderer von Yes würden den Herren um Steve Howe wegen Beschädigung ihres eigenen Erbes gerne die Denkmalschutzbehörde auf den Hals hetzen. Und fürwahr haben es die Prog-Urgesteine ihren Fans in den vergangenen Jahren nicht gerade leicht gemacht. Schon das von Trevor Horn produzierte „Fly From Here“ konnte die hohen Erwartungen vielerorts nicht erfüllen und mit dem nachfolgenden „Heaven & Earth“ löste man gar auch noch „Open Your Eyes“ als unbeliebtestes Yes-Album aller Zeiten ab. Auf Tour spielten diese Werke sowieso kaum eine Rolle. Dazu kommen die Diskussionen um die Besetzung der Band, inbesondere um Anderson-Ersatz Jon Davison und Keyboarder Geoff Downes. Der Tod von Chris Squire als trauriger Höhepunkt war für viele Fans schließlich das Ereignis, an dem man einen Schlussstrich hätte ziehen sollen. Heute wissen wir aber, dass inzwischen sogar zwei Yes- Versionen die Bühnen der Welt bereisen. Neben der offiziellen Formation um Steve Howe und Alan White firmieren die zunächst als ARW gestarteten Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman und Trevor Rabin als Yes feat. Jon Anderson. An derartige Entwicklungen muss man sich wohl in Zukunft gewöhnen und sich von dem Gedanken verabschieden, dass ein Bandname an eine ganz klar definierte Gruppe von Personen gebunden ist. Yes ist ein Markenname und die dazugehörige Musik das Produkt, für das nach wie vor Nachfrage besteht. Nun liegt mit „Topographic Drama: Live Across America“ ein neues Live-Album der „offiziellen“ Yes mitHowe , White, Davison, Downes und Squire-Erbe Billy Sherwood vor. Mit Jay Schellen als zweitem Schlagzeuger tritt gar ein ganz neues Gesicht auf das Parkett.

  • Resolution May/June 08 V7.4.Indd
    craft Horn and Downes briefl y joined legendary prog- rock band Yes, before Trevor quit to pursue his career as a producer. Dollar and ABC won him chart success, with ABC’s The Lexicon Of Love giving the producer his fi rst UK No.1 album. He produced Malcolm McLaren and introduced the hitherto-underground world of scratching and rapping to a wider audience, then went on to produce Yes’ biggest chart success ever with the classic Owner Of A Lonely Heart from the album 90125 — No.1 in the US Hot 100. Horn and his production team of arranger Anne Dudley, engineer Gary Langan and programmer JJ Jeczalik morphed into electronic group Art Of Noise, recording startlingly unusual-sounding songs like Beat Box and Close To The Edit. In 1984 Trevor pulled all these elements together when he produced the epic album Welcome To The Pleasuredome for Liverpudlian bad-boys Frankie Goes To Hollywood. When Trevor met his wife, Jill Sinclair, her brother John ran a studio called Sarm. Horn worked there for several years, the couple later bought the Island Records-owned Basing Street Studios complex and renamed it Sarm West. They started the ZTT imprint, to which many of his artists such as FGTH were signed, and the pair eventually owned the whole gamut of production process: four recording facilities, rehearsal and rental companies, a publisher (Perfect Songs), engineer and producer management and record label. A complete Horn discography would fi ll the pages of Resolution dedicated to this interview, but other artists Trevor has produced include Grace Jones, Propaganda, Pet Shop Boys, Band Aid, Cher, Godley and Creme, Paul McCartney, Tina Turner, Tom Jones, Rod Stewart, David Coverdale, Simple Minds, Spandau Ballet, Eros Ramazzotti, Mike Oldfi eld, Marc Almond, Charlotte Church, t.A.T.u, LeAnn Rimes, Lisa Stansfi eld, Belle & Sebastian and Seal.

  • The Royal Affair Tour: Live from Las Vegas
    Yes – The Royal Affair Tour: Live From Las Vegas (75:20, CD, 2 LP, Download, BMG/Warner) Schon wieder ein Live-Album von Yes? Seit dem Jahr 2014 ist dies nun die bereits sechste Live- Veröffentlichung bei der Yes drauf steht, sodass eine gewisse Reizüberflutung zu verzeichnen ist. Sind dennoch Gründe erkennbar, sich noch ein weiteres Live-Werk zuzulegen, auch wenn man kein „Die-Hard Fan“ der Band sein sollte? Fakt ist, das zum x-ten Mal Tracks wie ‚Starship Trooper‘, ‚Siberian Khatru‘, ‚Roundabout‘ oder ‚I’ve Seen All Good People‘ dargeboten werden, die in früheren Besetzungen mit mehr Verve und besseren solistischen Können ertönen. Immerhin sind Kompositionen wie das Richie Havens-Cover ‚No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed‘ von der zweiten Yes- Veröffentlichung, sowie zwei weitere Coverversionen mit ‚Imagine‘ von John Lennon sowie ‚America‘ von Paul Simon dabei, die bisher seltener auf einem Live-Medium zu hören sind. Das Konzert wurde am 26. Juli 2019 im Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas während der „The Royal Affair Tour“ aufgenommen und von Billy Sherwood gemixt. Yes sind aktuell Steve Howe (Gitarre), Alan White (Schlagzeug), Geoff Downes (Keyboards), Sänger Jon Davison sowie Billy Sherwood, der nach dem Tod von Gründungsmitglied und Bassist Chris Squire im Jahre 2015 den Bass übernahm. Außerdem wird Jay Schellen im Booklet als Yes- Musiker aufgeführt, der das Schlagzeugspiel live wesentlich bereichert. Ein Gründungsmitglied ist bei Yes inzwischen nicht mehr an Bord, womit der dienstälteste Yesser Steve Howe, der 1971 auf dem „Yes Album“ die Gitarre für Peter Banks übernahm, das Zepter übernommen hat. Als Gast hört man die Moody-Blues-Legende John Lodge, der sich auf ‚Imagine‘ den Gesang mit Jon Davison teilt.
