The Rolling Stones – L.A. Friday

Mistitled by bootleggers back in the ’70s as LA Friday, the recording was actually made on Sunday 13th July 1975, at the final performance of the Rolling Stones’ five night residency at the Los Angeles Forum. The show was part of the Rolling Stones Tour of the Americas, which started with a bang, the band playing on a flatbed truck driving down 5th Avenue in New York City, showcasing their new guitarist, Ronnie Wood. The lineup for the show is Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood, Bill Wyman, Ian “Stu†Stewart, Billy Preston, Ollie E. Brown and Trevor Lawrence. Remastered by Bob Clearmountain, the album contains an incredible versions of “Fingerprint File†and “Angieâ€.

Yes - Fragile

With the 1972 release of Fragile, Yes established themselves as one of the most progressive rock bands on the scene. With the recent addition of towering, silver-caped Rick Wakeman on keyboards, they raised their innovative brand of music to even dizzier heights. “Roundabout,†which is still a standard on classic rock playlists, is an unusual track, coming in under four minutes, while “Heart of the Sunriseâ€â€”with its varied constituents molded together perfectly—goes on for as long as it needs.—amazon.com

Yes - The Yes Album

“The Yes Album†was actually the third album from the group spearheaded by singer John Anderson, but represented enough significant differences from its two predecessors to constitute a new and bigger beginning for the progressive rock group. Guitarist Steve Howe had replaced Peter Banks (who had gone off to join Blodwyn Pig), the album featured only original material, and the songs now tended to be much longer tracks. The four longer tracks—“Yours Is No Disgrace,†“Starship Trooper,†“I’ve Seen All Good People,†and “Perpetual Changeâ€â€”are structured similarly, although each allows for considerable instrumental freedom. Usually a melodic theme is introduced by one member of the band and then echoed by the others. Science fiction concepts are combined with folk melodies and transformed into soaring showpieces for vocal and musical instruments alike. On this particular album the stand out musician is, rather surprisingly, bassist Chris Squire. Sometimes I think they made a mistake on the mix and pumped up the volume on the bass, but then it becomes clear this is by design. Howe’s guitar work as well as the organ played by Tony Kaye are given their moments to shine while Bill Bruford’s drumming just stays out of the way. However, the defining element of Yes is probably the vocal harmonies, with Howe and Squire blending with Anderson in the falsetto range, highlighted on “All Good People.†It was this that made Yes unique from their most obvious British progressive rock counterpart Emerson, Lake & Palmer.

“All Good People†was also the group’s second American single to crack the Top 40 and really became the song that introduced them to a larger listening audience. However, the best is yet to come, with the additional of Rick Wakeman as the keyboard player and Anderson’s continued exploration of oblique lyrics. This is the second remastered CD version of the album and offers annotations by Yes scholar Bill Martin and a trio of bonus tracks: single edits of both “Your Move†and the “Life Seeker†segment of “Starship Trooper,†and the studio version of the Steve Howe acoustic guitar solo “Clap.†These are minor but welcome additions to what was already a five star album.—amazon.com

Yes - Close To The Edge

The band’s crowning achievement, Close to the Edge, contains only three lengthy “songs,†but each one is an absolute epic. The title track dominates all of side one of the original LP, rushing in with a burbling, dissonant intro, Howe’s jagged riffing and Wakeman’s fluttering fingers building a dense, overpowering texture. Squire’s bass in the majestic “Total Mass Retain†section could liquefy solid tissue at the right volume; it’s almost impossible to believe it hasn’t been made into a hip-hop sample yet. Most importantly, the title track has a sense of coherent progression, tension and release that most of the band’s other side-filling epics lack. “And You and I†is arguably the ten most gorgeous minutes Yes ever laid to tape. It begins humbly, with twelve-string acoustic guitar, rises through mellotron-soaked crescendos, and then does it all again, building to a huge closing climax called “Apocalypseâ€, essentially laying out the blueprint for Sigur Rós. That leaves “Siberian Khatru†to close out the album with nine minutes of hook-stuffed organ and guitar interplay, understated harmony vocals and more of Squire’s chunky, front-and-center bass playing. This record is an essential document of just how powerful prog could be when focused. —pitchfork.com

Yes - Relayer

Yes had fallen out of critical favor with Tales from Topographic Oceans, a two-record set of four songs that reviewers found indulgent. But they had not fallen out of the Top Ten, and so they had little incentive to curb their musical ambitiousness. Relayer, released 11 months after Tales, was a single-disc, three-song album, its music organized into suites that alternated abrasive, rhythmically dense instrumental sections featuring solos for the various instruments with delicate vocal and choral sections featuring poetic lyrics devoted to spiritual imagery. Such compositions seemed intended to provide an interesting musical landscape over which the listener might travel, and enough Yes fans did that to make Relayer a Top Ten, gold-selling hit, though critics continued to complain about the lack of concise, coherent song structures.. —allmusic.com
