Yes : Yesyears (Box Set)


SISTER BLUEBIRD

FLYING HIGH ABOVE

SHINE YOUR WINGS

FORWARD TO THE SUN

HIDE YOUR MYSTERIES

OF LIFE ON THE WAY

THROUGH YOU'VE SEEN THEM

PLEASE DON'T SAY A WORD

WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW

I HAVE NEVER HEARD


 Yesyears

 is the first 

boxed set

 by English

 progressive

 rock band

 Yes

released in

 August 1991

 on Atco Records

After the group left Atco

 for Arista Records 

when they became

 an eight-man formation

 in 1990,

 the deal gave Atco

 the right to the band's

 back catalogue,

 thus allowing them

 to release a

 career-spanning

 box set. 

Yesyears 

contains studio

 and live tracks 

from 1969 to 1991 

with previously

 unreleased mixes 

and songs,

 digitally remastered

 by Joe Gastwirt.

One of the

 major attractions

 of

 Yesyears

 was its inclusion of

 rare material,

 including many

 previously

 unreleased songs, 

and a full-colour

 booklet detailing

 Yes's history.

 A condensed version

 of this package,

 entitled 

Yesstory,

 would be released

 in 1992

 on two discs.

 Yesyears

 was discontinued

 in the late 1990s,

 preceding the release of

 Rhino Records'

 (five-disc) 

box set 

In a Word: Yes (1969–) 

in 2002.

 Most of the 

rare material

 found on

 Yesyears

 but not on 

In a Word

 would surface on 

Rhino's reissues

 of

 Yes albums

 in 2003 and 2004.
