History of YES... No, ``8-person YES'' became a unique and luxurious project in the history of British progressive rock. The symbolic video has been decided to be released. This work includes “August 8, 1991 Mountain View Performance”. Yes, it is a multi-camera professional shot known as the official work "UNION LIVE". This video is truly a symbol of “8 people YES”. The eight members came together through a bold idea and decision that is rarely seen in rock history, but the core work ``Krystal'' was produced in a rush, and there were no songs performed by the eight members. The miraculous large-scale ensemble was only shown on tour, and it was the TV broadcast of the Mountain View performance that allowed you to experience its true value in the highest quality. The superlative sound/picture quality and camera work created countless records, and in 2000, it was made into an official DVD. Far from being ``completely official,'' it has risen to become a truly official work, and has become a ``symbol of 8-member YES'' that surpasses even studio albums. Anyway, let's start with the show position. This is also a good opportunity, so let's look back on the entire history of "8 People YES". 1991/April 9th-29th: North America #1a (16 performances)《"Crystal" released on April 30th》/May 3rd-21st: North America #1b (15 performances)/May 29th- June 30th: Europe (20 performances) / July 5th - August 8th: North America #2 (28 performances) ←★Coco★《Temporary withdrawal of Bill Bruford》1992, February 29th - 3rd May 5th: Japan (5 performances) 《8-person YES Demolition》This is the “8-person YES” that actually existed in 1991/1992. The last performance location was here in Japan, but that was just an additional activity. The main part of the tour, which had been going on since before the release of the album, ended with "North America #2", and the Mountain View performance of this work was that Chiakiraku (John also MCed that "tonight is the last show"). It was. As mentioned above, the professional shots taken at such shows were once made official, but are now out of print. This work is a reprint from such a Japanese version DVD. The image/sound quality is completely official (not to mention the details), and it even comes with 5.1ch surround sound and Japanese subtitles. It is truly “the ultimate work of 8 people YES”. And the show depicted with its visual beauty is one of the pinnacles of British rock history. First, let's organize the set. 70's Third album: Yours Is No Disgrace/Clap/I've Seen All Good People Fragile: Heart of the Sunrise/Roundabout Ultimate: Awaken 80's onwards Lonely Heart: Owner of a Lonely Heart Big Generator: Rhythm of Love・Crystal: Saving My Heart・Others: Make it Easy/Solly's Beard/Whitefish/Amazing Grace...and so on. Although it is an incomplete recording because the TV broadcast pro shot is the source, the essence of old and new YES music will be showcased for about 2 hours. And above all, that ensemble! All 8 members are unique and unmistakable, yet each song has its own main character and support, and the arrangements are well-controlled with a flood of diverse sounds. The expressions of “ABWH” and “90125 YES” are swapped, and the symphonic rock that is drawn by overlapping each note, which is richer than either, is gorgeous. Also, the performance of each individual was also good. As mentioned above, the Mountain View performance of this work is the final performance (for the time being), and Bill also leaves immediately after. As a result, the whole show is filled with a feeling of breathing that has been highly practiced during the tour, and a sense of freedom from not having to think about tomorrow's conditions. And I felt a sense of accomplishment after completing a project that seemed absurd no matter how I looked at it. Normally, there is a sense of sadness at the end of a project, but no one expected that ``8 people YES'' would last forever. It's a show filled with smiles as if the members themselves were truly enjoying the super-luxurious ensemble that rarely happens. YES has repeated the most separations and disbandments in the complicated rock world of Family Tree. He was also a pioneer whose way of life/personality itself changed the outlook of the industry. The ultimate “8-person YES” is the result of their spirit. This is the pinnacle and symbolic image. It's not just a fun live video, it's a crystallization of their philosophy.
