YES Tales From Topographic Oceans (2013 UK/EU 4-track remastered double LP pressed on 180gram Vinyl. A majestic return to one of progressive rock’s most ambitious and polarising masterpieces, this 2013 vinyl reissue of Tales From Topographic Oceans presents Yes’s 1973 double-LP epic in beautifully remastered form, faithful to the scale and intent of the original release. Inspired by the Hindu Shastric scriptures and realised as four side-long compositions, Tales From Topographic Oceans marked the band’s boldest artistic statement. From the vast, oceanic swell of “The Revealing Science Of God (Dance Of The Dawn)” through the intricate rhythmic labyrinths of “The Remembering (High The Memory)”, the soaring spiritual uplift of “The Ancient (Giants Under The Sun)” and the transcendent finale “Ritual (Nous Sommes Du Soleil)”, this is progressive rock on a truly symphonic scale. Featuring the classic line-up of Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman and Alan White, the album captures Yes at their most fearless and expansive. Wakeman’s banks of keyboards, Howe’s fluid and acoustic textures, Squire’s distinctive melodic bass and Anderson’s otherworldly vocals combine to create a work that is immersive, demanding and endlessly rewarding. This 2013 reissue is pressed on high-quality vinyl, offering improved clarity, depth and dynamic range while retaining the warmth and presence that collectors expect. Housed in a faithful reproduction of the original Roger Dean-designed gatefold sleeve, complete with its iconic cosmic seascape artwork, this edition is an essential upgrade for audiophiles and a cornerstone piece for any serious Yes collection. A landmark album that continues to divide opinion yet command respect, Tales From Topographic Oceans remains a towering statement of progressive rock ambition — and this 2013 vinyl reissue allows it to be experienced as it was always intended: expansive, immersive and gloriously uncompromising.The sleeve & the vinyl display minimal signs of wear/play).
