Movie Description Two video releases celebrating the accomplishments of the progressive rock band Yes are collected here: YES ACOUSTIC and YES SPEAK.
YES SPEAK: The Who's Roger Daltrey narrates this in-depth look at Yes, one of the true pioneering progressive rock bands. Shot in Europe during the band's 35th anniversary tour, YESSPEAK includes seventeen musical performances from that tour--which features the band's classic line-up of Chris Squire, Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Alan White, and Rick Wakeman. In addition, you'll see the band offering their own thoughts on the band's history, life on the road, and their respective solo careers.
YES ACOUSTIC: The classic lineup of Yes was reunited in 2003; on January 20, 2004, they played an acoustic set in L.A. that was broadcast as a live satellite feed to over 50 Regal movie theaters that showed after the premiere of an edited version of YESSPEAK, their revealing documentary. Behind the scenes footage is characterized by Rick Wakeman's dry wit, and the DVD includes scenes from the rehearsal that took place the day of the broadcast, as well as trailers for YESSPEAK. An intimate, exclusive affair, the event is captured on a high-quality DVD that proves these innovators of progressive rock can still work their magic.
