The Yes Album (Super Deluxe Edition) presents a newly remastered version of The Yes Album expanded with rarities, two previously unreleased concerts from 1971, and fresh mixes by Steven Wilson, including an immersive Dolby Atmos Mix.
The first concert in the set was recorded just a few weeks before The Yes Album was released, while the second was recorded six months later during the band’s US tour. These remarkable performances include live versions of songs from the album, such as Yours Is No Disgrace and Perpetual Change, as well as Astral Traveller and Everydays from the band’s previous album, Time And A Word (1970).
Steve Howe said in a statement, “The Yes Album represents to me the invention of 70’s Yes. This was aided by leaving outside material off the record and heavily investing in the influences we brought together, particularly the arrangement skills and utilizing the available best technology.
“Our adventurism shows in the originality of the music and lyrics, as none of us had done anything quite like this before.”
Steven Wilson writes, “For the Atmos Mix, I used my 5.1 as a starting point but found myself taking quite a different approach on some parts of the music, partly by virtue of now having the extra speakers to place the sounds in, but also because I’ve learned a few things in the nearly 10 years since I first remixed the album…I hope you enjoy The Yes Album in its new, fully spatialized form. To me, it still sounds as fresh as the day it was recorded.”
