The YES tribute is out at last! 26 spirited renditions of Yes classics by a variety of very talented artists, including the new band-singer himself!. We loved making this album from the beginning, and to be honest I've probably enjoyed it more than any individual Yes album since then. Not that there's anything wrong with the originals, of course, (perish the thought!) it's just that this collection brings a new lease of life to many personal favourites. Highly recommended!
Featuring new Yes vocalist Jon Davison, Jacob Holm-Lupo with his project The Opium Cartel, Raven Sad, Luca Scherani, Supernal Endgame, Conqueror, Din Within, Alessandro Corvaglia, Jay Tausig, 3RDegree, Yessongs, Yesterdays, and many others.
And this is the BandCamp link, powered by ProgStreaming: here you can download each track for 1,50 € or just 12 € for all 26 tracks! Or order the 2CD-set directly. You choose!
