"Formed in 1968, YES have been one of the most innovative, influential, and best-loved bands in rock music history. Their 1970s albums The Yes Album, Fragile, Close to the Edge, Yessongs (a triple live album set), Tales From Topographic Oceans, Relayer, and Going For The One were ground-breaking in musical style and content. With sales of over 50 million records, the Grammy award-winning YES were inducted into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2017."
