With "Keys to Ascension", the Symphonic Tour and most recently the 35th Anniversary concert recordings, you can hear how Yes have mastered their back catalogue to give outstanding, mature renditions of their classic material from the 1970s; they're so on top of the songs that there's the kind of range of nuance and interpretation that you can only get from artists of their calibre.  How amazing, then, to return to 1972 and hear how they delivered the songs when they were still in their twenties.  The contemporary criticism of their music was often that they over-arranged, that there was posture, pretention and almost painfully meticulous production.  "Yessongs" blasts this criticism out of the water.  Not only does the complexity and breadth of the music shine through, but it's delivered with a blistering energy that never really came out in the studio albums. The main difference between these live versions and the originals is that this is the first time we hear Alan White on drums, and he drives the songs along with a kick (literally) that brings them right into the rock genre.  You can't fault former drummer Bill Bruford's skill - he appears in this recording on "Perpetual Change", with a typically paradiddling top-kit solo - but it's White that lifts the rest of the material.  Highlights are "Heart of the Sunrise", so powerfully rendered that it sometimes sounds as if it'll fly off into chaos; "And You and I", where the original's final theme is transplanted to the top of the song to give it a new roundedness; Rick Wakeman's showcase "Excerpts from the Six Wives of Henry VIII", incredible when you remember the limitations of 1970s technology; "The Fish", proving that Chris Squire is not only a great bass player but a pioneer of the instrument; and "Starship Trooper", which lifts off with a great roar from the crowd and never lets up.Moments to listen for: Steve Howe nearly messing up towards the end of "Heart of the Sunrise"; Wakeman clowning on the intro to "Perpetual Change"; Jon Anderson rendering the opening bassoon from Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" before Wakeman's solo; Squire's nod to "Friends" from "Led Zeppelin III" during "The Fish"; and the great piano riff that slides in to introduce "Yours is no Disgrace".  OK, the production is almost as thin as a bootleg, but don't let that put you off.  If you're a fan, then this is the album to play to Yes-haters.

    Hitting the spot all over again with a triumphant Yes!

Loved this album ever since I bought it in the mid seventies. All the way back then I had never seen a triple gatefold album before so really surprised this time round to unwrap the new re-mastered CD with its slim little jewel case)Very happy to report the sound quality is a bit better, clearer and with a touch more body/punch. I was relieved because even though the album is a classic the sound was originally terrible (Especially after many plays on your record player) so it's great to hear it cleaned up. I had no trouble with disc 2 as some reviewers have stated...All Yes fans will have there favorite parts from this recording. For me it is tracks like "Perpetual Change" "Long Distance Runaround" "Yours is No Disgrace" and "Starship Trooper" because the raw energy and sometimes savage power of the bands performance is simply breathtaking; plus the extended solos in theses tracks are wonderful and I feel in a way have never been bettered.  Sometimes the power is a little too much for example "And You and I" is a little spoilt by the lack of subtlety, but it's only a small detail and indeed a matter of individual taste.Incidentally I found it interesting that both Wakemans solo offering and Howe's "Mood For A day" although listened to with pleasure on the first run through, I find now that I tend to skip theses tracks as older and wiser ears find them a wee bit more trivial and flowery. Contrary to this is Chris Squires bass solo on "Fish" Which I now find more impressive than ever: this powerful and stunning exhibition of virtuoso playing surely goes down in history as one of the most exciting bass solos ever.  Chris for me was always the heart of "Yes".Jon Anderson's sometimes slight lack of confidence shows in his voice, and Bill Bruford's drum solo starts great but kinda loses steam in the middle, but overall this is an incredible live performance that is now a good 25 years old.So Yes all cleaned up and fresh faced ready to please your ears all over again. Well done those people)  GET IT!
