Cajas y cajas de YES...

El sello Rhino edita el 11 de Noviembre un box set que contiene los discos en estudio que Yes publicó originalmente para el sello Atlantic entre 1969 y 1987.

Son en total 12 albumes en 13 cds (porque 'Tales' es doble) que comprenden desde 'Yes' hasta 'Big Generation', con las remasterizaciones que ya salieron en forma individual en 2003 y 2004, con la excepción de 'Big Generator' que solamente se conoció en Japón.

Estos 'Remastered and expanded' contienen una buena cantidad de bonus -que en el box suman un total de 66 temas- aunque su importancia en general es bastante relativa, siendo en su  mayoría tomas alternativas o radio-edits.  Lo mas interesante se puede encontrar en 'Tormato' y 'Drama', con unos cuantos temas de las sesiones que fueron descartados en la edición final, entre ellos 'Money' o 'Abilene', que fué lado B de 'Don't Kill the Whale'.

Por dar un ejemplo, las 'novedades' de 'Big Generator' son dos versiones -una editada y otra extendida- de 'Love Will Find a Way' y tres remix de 'Rhythm of Love'.

Si también encontrás alguna relación entre este lanzamiento y la caja de cuatro discos 'YesYears' de 1991 o la de cinco 'In a Word: Yes' también de Rhino que salió en 2002 no andás muy lejos, aunque ninguno de esos contiene albumes completos originales.

Mejor sería compararla con el 'High Vibration SACD box set' de la Warner japonesa que salió hará cosa de un mes, con los mismos albumes más 'Yessongs', sin los bonus y con un SACD (Super Audio CD, un formato de mayor definición) que sí trae 12 temas de las reediciones.  Todo por unos módicos 400 dólares.

El 'The Studio Albums: 1969 1987' te sale un poco menos, apenas unos u$s 75, y viene con un nuevo diseño de arte de Roger Dean...   Comprá, comprá, que el auto lo cambiás mas adelante.
