YES - Live At Montreaux 2003 DVD Due In March

Eagle Eye Media, the wholly-owned subsidiary of Eagle Rock Entertainment, will continue its acclaimed Montreux series of DVDs and CDs by finally releasing on March 20th, Yes Live At Montreux 2003 on DVD by England’s Prog-Rock heroes, YES.

Overlooked by the Rock’n’Roll Hall Of Fame, Yes has put forth a stunning catalog of great music dating back to 1969. Each and every member of this band is looked up to by two generations of musicians as being the supreme exemplar of craft… from guitarist Steve Howe, vocalist Jon Anderson, bassist Chris Squire and keyboardist Rick Wakeman to drummer Alan White. This is the lineup that gathered together in Switzerland on this night, its Montreux debut. It is regarded by the band members themselves as the finest Yes gig ever to be filmed. Fan blogs have been asking for this set since ’03 but its release had been held up pending the solving of legal clearances. Until now.

A satisfying two hours and 18 minutes in length, the incredible 17-song set, which lists at $14.98, features rare gems as well as well-worn beloved anthems. It could be said that there is not another band in Prog-Rock history who has stayed at the top of its game 38 years after inception like Yes. Truly, they are better now than ever. Anderson’s voice has retained that pristine angelic tenor. It is undiminished by time. Howe is still the overlooked genius in any guitar conversation. Squire wrote the book on prog-bass, period. His bottom doesn’t only anchor the sound, it defines it. Squire’s bass is another lead instrument, and that fact is sensationally brought home in concert. Only Wakeman has had his share of critical due and deservedly so. White has been and is the consummate progressive drummer.

Eagle Eye Media has set the industry standard for concert DVDs with this highly-prestigious and critically-acclaimed Montreux series. Previous entries include artists as diverse as Seu Jorge, Van Morrison, Carlos Santana, Alice Cooper, Canned Heat, James Brown, Deep Purple, Eric Clapton, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, Suzanne Vega, Chick Corea, Gary Burton, George Benson, Lou Reed and many others.
