Tales From Yesterday For more than 25 years, the music of Yes has been thrilling music lovers throughout the world. Not only did this band create exciting new albums of incredible songs, it virtually invented an entirely new style of music... orchestral, symphonic, sometimes folk-influenced rock with lyrical content and social conscience. The band, Yes, and its musicians (both current and former) are still creating music today and have spawned new generations of musicians who have waited for an opportunity to thank their musical "fathers" for the creative energy that Yes inspires.
Magna Carta's series of tribute albums to the great groups of progressive rock has elicited a great deal of interest from music fans because of their inventive musical arrangements, exciting artist rosters, great performances and satisfying song selection. Magna Carta has put together a compilation sampler, "Tribute To The Titans", which will give the uninformed listener a clear view of what each of these great tributes is all about. The reaction to these tributes has been overwhelmingly positive from fans of the groups who are being honored and, yet, these albums are not without the controversy which comes with the territory of tribute albums. Great pains have been taken to include well known performers (Keith Emerson, Steve Howe, John Wetton, etc.) as well as Magna Carta's stable of up and coming stars (Shadow Gallery, Magellan, Robert Berry, etc.). From a historical perspective Magna Carta's tribute series is a valuable collectors piece. From the pure entertainment perspective, "Tribute To The Titans" is about as good as it gets.
Includes the full version of "Watcher Of The Skies" with a medley of Genesis tunes.
