Few items of musical ephemera are imbued with more talismanic, time-traveling power than the concert poster. Produced in the smallest of quantities, they're hard to obtain and even harder to preserve across the ravages of time. Unwieldy, fragile, and subjected to all manner of assault by tape, thumbtacks, and glue, it's a wonder any manage to survive. When they do, they can fetch a king's ransom at auction. After all, who wouldn't want to be transported back in time to a legendary gig by a favorite band at a fabled, but long-since-lost concert palace we remember fondly from our youth?This full-color compendium features what is likely the world's largest collection of rare YES concert posters, documenting the band's extraordinary career from their earliest performances to the present day.As you turn the pages, you'll witness the evolution of YES's visual presence—deeply intertwined with Roger Dean's iconic artwork: otherworldly landscapes, intricate illustrations, and the iconic YES logo.
