“8-person YES” was the ultimate big project in the history of YES, which was one of the most popular. Introducing a professional shot work where you can fully experience the miraculous ensemble. This work was filmed at “May 9, 1991 Denver Performance”. This is a multi-camera pro shot that captures a scene from “UNION TOUR”. Speaking of the symbolic professional shot of “UNION TOUR”, the Mountain View performance, also known as the official work “UNION LIVE”, is also famous. Here, let's take a look back at the overall picture of the world tour of the century, in order to understand the distance between the two works. 1991, April 9th-29th: North America #1a (16 performances)《“Crystal” released on April 30th》 ・May 3rd-21st: North America #1b (15 performances) ←★Coco★・5 March 29th - June 30th: Europe (20 performances) July 5th - August 8th: North America #2 (28 performances) ← *Official "UNION LIVE" February 29th - March 5th, 1991 Sun: Japan (5 performances)《8-person YES dismantling》 This is the entire activities of “8-person YES”. Roughly speaking, it was “North America x 2 laps + Europe + Japan”, but the Denver performance of this work is the beginning. This was the 6th concert of "North America #1b", which was held immediately after the release of the album "Krystal". Such a show is also known for having a full pro shot, and it was even made official as a bonus DVD of the limited edition of "UNION LIVE". This work is a precise reprint of the highest version. The quality feels like it's one step away from being completely official... The official edition was also a limited edition bonus DVD, so even though it is official, it is at the level of an excavated work. It is clearly based on the VHS master, and the unprocessed rough mix and rough camera work prioritize rawness rather than the polish of an "official work". However, it is an official work. It is different from the ordinary air check boots, and the master freshness is exquisite. Although the resolution has a sweet analog feel, the seamless experience without a single white line noise is amazing. What is depicted in its ultra-realistic quality is a full show in which eight miraculous people overlap their sounds. Although the quality of the symbolic pro shot of the Mountain View performance was overwhelming, it was also edited short to fit the broadcast frame. On the other hand, this work is a full recording that is over 44 minutes long. Here, let's organize the set while comparing it with the Mountain View performance pro shot. 70's Third Album: Yours Is No Disgrace／Clap／I've Seen All Good People・Fragile: Heart of the Sunrise／Mood for a Day／Long Distance Runaround (★)／Roundabout・Crisis: And You And I（ ★) ・Ultimate: Awaken 80's and later ・Lonely Heart: Owner of a Lonely Heart／Hold On (★)／Changes (★) ・Big Generator: Rhythm of Love ・Crystal: Shock to the System (★)／Lift Me Up (★)・Others: Make it Easy/Drum Duet (★)/Solly's Beard/Whitefish/Amazing Grace *Note: Songs marked with a "★" cannot be seen in the official video "UNION LIVE (Standard Version)". ...and it looks like this. They didn't play their new song "Saving My Heart" that day, but the volume was so loud that it didn't matter. “Lift Me Up,” which is reminiscent of YES Featuring ARW, and “Shock to the System” and “Drum Duet,” which are exclusive to this tour, are also delicious, but the best one is probably “And You And I.” This is one of the best songs that was selected from the masterpiece "Kisai" but was cut from the pro shot of the Mountain View performance. That melody, that phrase, played by a super luxurious ensemble of ``5 originators + 3 people''...the real thrill is hard to replace with anything. At the same time as this is the charm of this film, even now, about 30 years later, I still feel regret about why it was cut in Mountain View. The transformation of the members is part of the fun of being a rock band. YES has continued to be a band that not only produces great masterpieces, but also teaches us the ``excellence of changing ensembles.'' And “8 people YES” is the pinnacle of that. This work is a piece that allows you to witness a full show of eight people that could not be seen even at “UNION LIVE”. The best version of the standard Denver performance pro shot. A multi-camera professional shot of the first act of “UNION TOUR” “May 9, 1991 Denver Performance”. This video was even made official as a bonus DVD for the limited edition of ``UNION LIVE'', and while the raw mix/camera work is at an unearthed level, the master's freshness is superb. The full show recording, which is over 44 minutes longer than the Mountain View performance pro shot that became the official work "UNION LIVE", is overwhelming, and includes "Lift Me Up", which is reminiscent of YES Featuring ARW, and "Shock to the System", which is exclusive to this tour. ” and “Drum Duet”, as well as the super masterpiece “And You And I” revived by an 8-person ensemble, can be enjoyed with professional shots and stereo soundboards.
