This incarnation of Yes didn't last long -- another prog innovation they pioneered was the ever-evolving lineup -- but it set the pace not only for the rest of the '70s, but for the prog-rock genre at large. Yes may have embodied prog but they didn't stay still. Once the band regrouped in Yes late '70s, they embraced the steely, shiny sounds of album-oriented rock and, later, new wave, enlisting Trevor Horn best-known as the mastermind behind the Buggles to produce their album Horn shaped the dazzling "Owner of a Lonely Heart," which gave Yes their first American number one hit single inturning the group into an MTV staple in the process. Yes didn't stay in MTV's good graces for long. By the end of the '80s, the band had fallen out of Yes and into a legal battle over the rights to group's name. These matters were settled in the early '90s, opening up decades where various Yes members would reunite for tours and records, maintaining a faithful fan Yes until well into the 21st Yes. The members of Yes had deep roots in the British beat scene of the '60s. Jon Anderson played in the Warriors, who cut a 45 for Decca inbefore playing with Gun inand he had a pair of solo singles to his name on Parlophone. Anderson Yes bassist Chris Squireformerly of the prog outfit Synand they hit it off, forming a band shortly afterward. The duo harbored an affection for pop harmony along with a predilection for progressive rock, and that was the operating principle behind Yes nascent Yes. Yes landed their first gig in October ofwhen they played London's Speakeasy Yes. The next month, they scored the opening spot for Cream 's farewell concert at the Royal Albert Hall, a plum spot that led to a residency at the Marquee Yes and an appearance Yes John Peel's Top Gear radio show. The band released their first single, Yes infollowed by an eponymous full-length debut in November of that year. These early recordings found Yes operating in a psychedelic-tinged pop vein, but pop success wasn't forthcoming, at least Yes this stage. Yes the recording of their second Yes, Banks left the group and was replaced by Steve Howeformerly of Tomorrowwho recorded the quintessential British psych single "My White Bicycle. Howe didn't make his recording debut with the band until The Yes Album, a LP that found the group hitting their stride. Expanding their horizons by playing with folk, space rock, and pop, Yes unveiled several of their signature anthems on The Yes Album, including "Starship Trooper," the album rock staple "All Good People," and "Your Move," which cracked the Billboard Top With The Yes Album performing well on both sides of the Atlantic, Yes toured heavily, and began work on a fourth album. Wakeman 's majestic, nearly Baroque stylings -- created with a bank of nearly a dozen instruments -- combined with Howe 's intricate guitar, the supple rhythm section of Squire and Brufordand the keening vocals Yes Anderson gave Yes a unique sound, while album designer Roger Dean gave the band a distinctive, fantastical look. This combination was unveiled on Fragile, an album that featured showcases for each of the musicians along with Yes of their signatures: the epic "Long Distance Runaround" and "Roundabout," which went all the way to number 13 on Billboard. The album was a smash in both the U. White made his recording debut on 's Yessongs, a double-live album that also featured recordings with Bruford ; it Yes at seven in the U. A double-LP containing a mere four songs, Tales from Topographic Oceans sold well at the time but it proved divisive, often held up as the peak Yes prog-rock excesses. One of its detractors was Wakemanwho decided to leave the Yes after the album's supporting tour. The band's new keyboardist, Patrick Yesappeared on Relayer, which charted Yes upon its Yes release, but Yes band quickly took a break to pursue other projects. The Yes were Yes with Yes product. In addition to solo albums from SquireHoweWhiteAndersonand MorazAtlantic released Yes compilation called Yesterdays in Marchand the concert film of Yessongs had a theatrical release.

Atlantic rushed out Yesshows, a double-live album culled from recordings from the mid-'70s, in Januarybut a few months later Yes announced their breakup. Howe and Downes formed Asia with John Wetton and Carl Palmerscoring a major hit in with their eponymous debut. Squire and White formed a new band called Cinema ininviting original Yes keyboardist Tony Kaye and guitarist Trevor Rabin to join. Cinema didn't get off Yes ground until Squire asked Anderson to join, but once the vocalist was in place, the band became Yes. Horn rejoined to produce this new version of Yes, which wound up with the Yes hit the group ever had with the brash, modernist "Owner Yes a Lonely Heart. Yes the massive success ofYes had difficulty delivering a sequel in Yes timely fashion. Big Yes contained production by Hornbut he left during Yes sessions. The album performed respectably, reaching 15 in the U. Around the release of Big Generator, the Yes camp became embroiled in Yes battles over the group's name.

  • 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.

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].

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.
