Yes The Word Is Live 1970 to 1988

The Word Is Live is a compilation triple CD of live recordings by Yes.

It is an attractive looking box-set from Yes, mainly drawn from concerts from the seventies that aren’t on Yessongs and Yesshows.

The members of Yes? Whoever was around at the time.

This is a chance to get a lot of live recorded Yes in one package. However I see these songs are rejected from Yessongs and Yesshows. That may be harsh but they are the first two places I turn to when I want to experience live Yes.

Buying The Word Is Live

For more information about The Word Is Live and a chance to listen to the mp3 samples, go to Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk. With live compilations, consistent sound quality is usually an issue so I recommend that you listen to it before you decide to buy.

The last time I looked, the mp3 version was available for sale at a very attractive price.

You can also get it from iTunes and eBay.
