September 7, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): On 20th September the album ‘Keys to Ascension’ by progressive rock veterans Yes, will be released by the label Proper Music. This bumper pack includes a total of 4 CD’s and a DVD that aptly capture the fantastic 1995 Yes reunion tour. This tour included the most sought after line up of the band including, Chris Squire, Jon Anderson Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman and Alan White.
This particular Yes reunion with this exciting and classic line-up of great musicians was keenly expected by the band’s huge fan-base from around the globe.
The tour took its actual shape in the year 1995 and in the spring of 1996, YES aficionados witnessed the classic lineup of 1970. The band came together to record new stuff at the Yesworld studios in San Luis Obispo, California.
Eventually, the band embarked on a trio of vividly staged live concerts in the month of March in the year 1996 at The Freemont Theatre. The band seemed to be tireless, even though they had played their last gig about two decades back! The fans went ecstatic and couldn’t get enough of their favorite act.
‘Keys To Ascension is therefore a mandatory for both Yes as well as rock music fans in general. This attractively packaged CD and DVD set showcases the band’s stunning technical skill, implausible improvisational skills and a potent on-stage alchemy.
