Can a band with a strong talent and ambition define a type of music? Can it maintain its vitality in the change of members back and forth? Can it win the same praise for two different faces in two years? Can it still be restored after the seperation? Can it always tell its former glory in continuous tours of shows for 20 years? Can it always hover high in the sky overlooking the source of their own?
Progressive rock, pioneers, classical music, instrumental luxurious, mysterious lyrics, vocal harmonies and ambitious stage effects, the occasion and falling apart, 21 studio albums, countless world tours, never end… This band uses 43 years and 17 full members in and out continuously to expand itself into a monster. Perhaps no one in this world can see its real whole appearance, but as to call its name it is a relatively simple word: Yes.

So, please remember its five core components – bassist Chris Squire (the only one member who always follow this band from the beginning), leading singer Jon Anderson, guitarist Steve Howe, keyboardist Rick Wakeman and drummer Alan White (the group of five people above is recognized as the classic Yes line-up); then let’s go deep down inside of its bones to explore the old message buried in it. Finally, do not forget to backtrack to pick up the bright feathers it shakes off. Of course, what we can never ignore is its singing voice, there containing almost all fun you who want to get from it. So, you shouldn’t be afraid of trouble and you also shouldn’t expect to pry out the answers form its mouth so easily because all you will get is a simple word – quot;Yesquot;.
