Yebo ibhendi ye-rock yaseBrithani edlala ohlotsheni lwe-rock oluqhubekayo. Ngawo-1970, leli qembu lalingumthwali ojwayelekile wohlobo. Futhi kuze kube yilolu suku unethonya eliphawulekayo kwisitayela sedwala eliqhubekayo.
Manje sekuneqembu elithi Yebo elinoSteve Howe, Alan White, Geoffrey Downes, Billy Sherwood, Jon Davison. Iqembu elinamalungu angaphambili lalikhona ngaphansi kwegama elithi Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Rick Wakeman.
Okukhethekile kweqembu le-Yebo umculo walo ongaqondakali, omuhle futhi ongaqondakali, okuthatha ukuyise emaphusheni, ufisa ukuqonda umhlaba ngayo yonke inkazimulo yawo, wedwa nawe kanye nemicabango yakho. Ibhendi ngokwezwi nezwi incazelo yegama elithi escapism.
Ukuqala kokusungulwa kweqembu Yebo (1968-1974)
Yebo yasungulwa ngo-Agasti 1968 nguJon Anderson, umshayi webhesi uChris Squire, umshayi wesigingci uPeter Banks, umshayi wezigubhu uBill Bruford kanye nomculi wekhibhodi uTony Kaye.
Bahlangana, baxoxa ngoSimon noGarfunkel no-The Who (kanye nomshayi wesigingci u-D. Entwistle), ababambisene naye.
Kakade ngo-Agasti 4, iqembu ladlala ikhonsathi yalo yokuqala ebizwa ngokuthi 4 Agasti. Bazungeza kabanzi kulo lonke elase-United Kingdom bedlala ukuthuthukiswa okudalwe ngezinto zangempela. Baphinde badlala izingoma zabaculi be-rock, funk kanye ne-jazz.
Sikwazile nokuba yingxenye yekhonsathi yokugcina ye-Cream. Neqembu iLed Zeppelin babambe iqhaza ohlelweni oludumile lukaJohn Peel. Lapho, amaqembu abo ayebizwa ngokuthi “amaqembu amancane athembisa kakhulu.” Kunzima ukungabaza amakhono esiprofetho umethuli!
Futhi ngoJulayi 1969, i-albhamu yokuqala ye-Yebo yegama elifanayo yakhululwa. Ukuvumelana kwephimbo nesigingci sika-Squire (umshayi wesiginci) no-Anderson (umculi) kuphakamise izingoma.
Ukuqamba Ngikubona Nokusinda
Izingoma ezibalulekile bekuyi-I See You, Survival, ebeziwumbukiso wobuciko bobuciko babo bonke abaculi. Kodwa ngesikhathi esifanayo, kuwukubonakaliswa kokuntuleka kweqembu ukuzimela kwezinye izici. Ngoba "Ngiyakubona" bekuyinguqulo yekhava ye-The Byrds.
Ngokuvamile, i-opus yokuqala yeqembu yamukelwa ngokufudumele ngabagxeki nomphakathi. Kodwa eqenjini lesi bekuyisinyathelo sokuqala, kodwa esikhulu kakhulu.
Ekuqaleni, iqembu elithi Yebo lalinyakaziswa ngokugxumagxuma, lathola ukuqashelwa emhlabeni wonke, hhayi nje izethameli ze-art-rock. Iqembu lihlanganyele nabadlali abadumile abafana noDavid Bowie noLou Reed.
Kujoyinile isidlali sekhibhodi esisha se-virtuoso, u-Rick Wakeman, obengumuntu odume kakhulu ofanelwe ukucatshangelwa kabanzi. Futhi okubaluleke kakhulu, bakhiphe ama-albhamu amabili adumile: I-Fragile nethi Close to the Edge.
I-Fragile bekuyi-albhamu yeqembu edume kakhulu ngenxa yokusatshalaliswa kwayo ochungechungeni lwama-animated lwesi-Japanese. Ithrekhi elalelwa kakhulu bekuyi-Round About, ingoma edlalwayo ekhuluma ngowesilisa ofuna “ama-roundabout” noma kuphi lapho kungenzeka khona.
Okunye okufanele kukhulunywe ngakho izingoma zeqembu eziku-albhamu: Amathini namaBrahms (aphuma ku-symphony kaJohannes Brahms) kanye ne-Heart of Sunrise (Buffalo 66).
I-albhamu ethi Close to the Edge, ehlanganisa ukwakhiwa kwegama elifanayo, ithi Pink Floyd esezingeni eliphezulu. Lena imisindo yomfudlana, iculo lezinyoni kanye nengxenye yezinsimbi (izwi lika-Anderson elizwakala phezulu).
"Futhi Mina nawe" ibushelelezi ngama-acoustics kanye nepiyano ehamba phambili. I-Siberian Khatru iyi-replay eqondile kanye nokuboleka kwemibono ku-ballet "The Rite of Spring".
Womabili ama-albhamu aphumelele kakhulu, futhi abaculi bathola ukunqoba kwabo kodumo. Kodwa ngemva kwalokho kwaba nezinguquko eziningi ezinkulu. Iqembu lidlalele abalandeli abambalwa be-orthodox art-rock ngokombono wekhwalithi ephezulu.
Umlando weqembu kusukela ngo-1974 kuze kube namuhla
Kuleli qembu, amanye amalungu eqembu ayesezongena emsindweni othandwa kakhulu. Futhi abanye, abanjengo-Anderson noWakeman, babefuna ukungena kokuthile osekuqalile, ukuhlola.
Ngenxa yokungahambisani kweqembu, i-albhamu ethi Tales from Topographic Oceans ikhishwe enezingoma ezimbalwa ezinhle. Ngenxa yalokhu, u-Wakeman walishiya iqembu (ebuya isikhashana kamuva).
Iqembu lagcina ligxile emsindweni odume kakhulu. Kuphawule ukuvuselelwa kokuduma kweqembu kwi-disco yama-1980 nge-albhamu ethi "90125", eyakhishwa inothile ngezingoma ezihehayo.
Iqembu lahlukana laba amalungu amabili. Lawa ama-rocker obuciko be-“orthodox” amelwe i-Yes Featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Rick Wakeman kanye neqembu elicula kakhulu elithi Yebo.
Ngo-2014, leli qembu lahlela uhambo oluya eYurophu. Iphumelele ngokudlalwa bukhoma okuhlukahlukene kwekhwalithi ephezulu nesimanje kwezingoma ezindala.
Amanye amalungu eqembu awasekho eduze, njengoPeter Banks (2013) noChris Squire (2014). Abasele "abakudala" bayaqhubeka nokusijabulisa ngokukhishwa okusha komsindo we-art-rock.
