Show Notes
The Rarities disc features rough mixes, alternate versions, and edits of staple tracks from CLOSE TO THE EDGE, offering another perspective on this opus. Three previously unreleased Steven Wilson tracks—“Siberian Khatru,” “Cord of Life,” and “Total Mass Retain”—grace this collection. Meanwhile, the LIVE AT THE RAINBOW, LONDON, ENGLAND, 12/16/72 recording spans two discs and captures the group in their prime while on tour supporting the album.
The collection boasts liner notes penned by Syd Schwartz of Jazz & Coffee as he dives into the process and story behind the seminal CLOSE TO THE EDGE, reflecting the spirit at the heart of “the ultimate Yes album.” Guitarist Steve Howe shares that “CLOSE TO THE EDGE is Yes's most miraculous album; it has our first 20-minute epic, the template for many large-scale tracks that followed, accompanied by two ten-minute tracks, similarly recorded with the highest musical and technical integrity. Recording Fragile was an experience that enabled us to make Close To The Edge Yes's career-defining album.
