startover1987 Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 YES - Essentially Yes (2006) (5CD BoxSet) (Lossless) YES - Essentially Yes (2006) (5CD BoxSet) (Lossless) EAC Rip | 5CD | FLAC - Log - Cue | Scans | Release: 2006 | ~ 2.36 GB Genre: Progressive Rock, Art Rock, Album Rock | Label: Eagle YES are the most successful and longest lived of all the progressive rock bands that appeared in the late sixties / early seventies, still releasing albums and playing to packed houses nearly forty years from their formation. This 5CD box set includes their three most recent studio albums: "Open Your Eyes", "The Ladder" and "Magnification" plus their 1994 album "Talk". The fifth CD sees the first ever release of highlights from their live concert at Montreux in 2003. Many of Yes' post-1987 studio albums seemed to have slipped through the cracks, as seemingly only hardcore fans are familiar with such releases as 1994's Talk, 1997's Open Your Eyes, 1999's The Ladder, and 2001's Magnification. But now you have another chance to discover these latter-day Yes efforts in one fell swoop, as 2006 saw the release of the five-disc Essentially Yes. Included are all four aforementioned albums, as well as a fifth disc that collects highlights from 2007's Live at Montreux 2003. For decades by this point, Yesstudio albums had become increasingly clean-sounding affairs with near-perfect playing, and the four studio albums here all follow this same blueprint -- as evidenced by such tracks as "Homeworld (The Ladder)," "The Calling," and "Wonderlove." And the live disc is the same as well (the grit of 1973's Yessongs is replaced with perfectly executed renditions of the classics). If you don't already own these titles, it probably makes sense to acquire them via Essentially Yes. Tracklist CD 1: Talk (1994) 1. The Calling 2. I Am Waiting 3. Real Love 4. State Of Play 5.
