The legendary rock band YES is back after a 25 year hiatus, and it’s kicking off a global tour with a stop in Philadelphia. The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts in association with BRE Presents & LME are proud to announce that the 2017 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees will take the Verizon Hall stage on October 1 at 7:30PM. Long-time YES fans can rejoice as Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Rick Wakeman will reform the definitive YES line-up as Anderson, Rabin, Wakeman (ARW). “As one of the most influential and outstanding progressive rock bands in history, YES has transcended musical genres and accrued noteworthy accomplishment throughout its career,” said Anne Ewers, President and CEO of the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts. “It is truly a surreal experience to be able to welcome these divine musicians to our campus, to put on what is sure to be a stunning performance for rock fans everywhere.” Since last playing together as YES in 1990 on the highly successful ‘Union Tour,’ there have been several hybrid versions of the English rock band, however, none that featured the iconic voice of founding member Jon Anderson, the outstanding talent of guitarist Trevor Rabin, and the keyboard wizardry of Rick Wakeman, until now.

Your story matters to us. Citation Weiner, R.G. (2008). [Review of the book Beyond and Before: The Formative Years of Yes by Peter Banks]. Popular Music and Society, 31(1), 136-139. https://doi.org/10.1080/03007769908591748 Citable Link http://hdl.handle.net/2346/1546 Terms of Use CC-BY Title page template design credit to Harvard DASH. 136 Book Reviews Hammond’s myopic vision, his unrelenting determination, and his deep personal sorrows, but to his friends and supporters Hammond was a trying project. Perhaps, as Prial suggests, Hammond’s relationship to the Vanderbilts did him more good in his early years in music than his social skills. There are questions unanswered and undeveloped in this biography related to Hammond the man, such as his falling out with Aretha Franklin or his quick parting with Dylan. Each chapter of this book comes (another assault on your pocketbook) with a wonderful ‘‘discography’’ that should slow down the pace of reading but will contribute to a great start in building a library of American music of the 20th century. It is quite something how much music Hammond had a role in, and this portion of the book is an important reminder of the times and genres Hammond touched. As with all biographies there are problems and limitations. For those of us raised in the second half of the century, The Producer fails to deliver the same magic surrounding the discovery and signing of ‘‘our’’ heroes as it does around the early stars.

Bands that helped to contribute to that wave had been predecessor to conceptual music in appearance and in sound during the late 1960s and 1970s, and the band Yes continued their presence through the following decade and on their album “90125”; the title originated from the band’s then record label ATCO and its catalog number that was misprinted. Aside from that, it was the most commercially produced albums in the band’s discography and of the decade, and it did not hurt that they became a major part of the MTV age in music and videos.By far, the single “Owner of a Lonely Heart” is the most memorable of the tracks on the album that is followed by “Leave It” and “It Can Happen.” Each song had a music video that played in heavy rotation on the music video channel.
