45th Anniversary Limited Edition 180g 45rpm Audiophile Vinyl Double LP Box Set!
Mastered by Friday Music's Joe Reagoso from Original Atlantic Records Tapes!

After four decades of recording a staggering catalog of top charting albums, a plethora of successful worldwide tours and basically the original architects of the prog-rock genre, the makings of their superstar reign began during the recording sessions for masterpiece The Yes Album.

With an ever interesting line-up of world class musicianship, this highly regarded chapter of Yes consisted of Jon Anderson (vocals), Chris Squire (bass/vocals), Bill Bruford (drums), Tony Kaye (keyboards) and the introduction of Steve Howe (guitars/vocals), The Yes Album truly stands as absolutely one of the finest and most revered rock albums of all time.

Yes fans continue to praise The Yes Album as a truly inspiring masterwork. This important piece of music consists of six amazing Yes workouts such as the definitive album opener Yours Is No Disgrace, the hard rocking Starship Trooper, and the brilliant I’ve Seen All Good People which featured the massive hit single Your Move. From this moment on, there was no looking back for this superstar quintet.

Yes enthusiasts were superlatively rewarded with even more progressive rock favorites as the brilliant acoustic driven guitar work of Steve Howe’s Clap, Chris Squire and Jon Anderson’s superb Perpetual Change and the jazz-rock fusion of A Venture truly made The Yes Album one of the finest albums of the classic rock era.

Friday Music continues the exclusive and extensive Yes 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl Series, with the release of their 1971 masterpiece The Yes Album. Issued for the first time on 2 LP 180 gram 45 rpm audiophile vinyl, this exceptional work is now mastered impeccably from the original Atlantic Records tapes by Joe Reagoso (Close to the Edge, Drama, Tales From Topographic Oceans, 90125, Relayer).
