This past Sunday night (9/4), YES officially wrapped its 28-date U.S. summer tour in San Diego, CA. Billed as 'The Album Series: Drama + Topographic 1 &4,' the'Evening With Yes' shows--featuring the 1980 album DRAMA performed in its entirety, sides one and four of 1973's double album TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS as well as selections of the band's greatest hits--traveled across the country receiving critical praise throughout its run.

YES recently kicked off its 2016 U.S. summer tour, billed as 'The Album Series: Drama + Topographic 1 & 4.' The 'Evening With Yes' shows begin with the 1980 album DRAMA performed in its entirety followed by sides one and four of 1973's double album TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS as well as selections of the band's greatest hits throughout. In a glowing review of last night's Lynn, MA show, the Boston Globe's Steve Smith said, 'Where those album recitals proved the present Yes equal to mighty acts of reanimation, the band's approach to canonical hits was equally commanding. 'I've Seen All Good People' and 'Siberian Khatru' closed the first set, 'And You and I' opened the second, and inevitably 'Roundabout' and 'Starship Trooper' arrived in the encore; this vital, hungry combo--not least a visibly animated [Steve] Howe--played it all with infectious gusto. Finding enduring fire even in thrice-familiar fare: it's this, more than which players turn up or what songs they pick, that will ensure Yes's staying power' (8/5/16).

Details for the fourth CRUISE TO THE EDGE excursion--prog-rock's largest festival at sea hosted by classic rock icons YES--have been announced, and it promises to be one of the best.
