Description:??I wanted to hear something inspiring.? With Fragile, Yes member Jon Anderson??s desire was fulfilled to an extent even he likely couldn??t have imagined. The band??s breakthrough album marks a number of important firsts not just for the group but for how popular music could be approached. It also represents the all-important debut of keyboardist Rick Wakeman, a complete rethinking of the relationship between classical devices, idyllic fantasies, and traditional structures, and the arrival of progressive rock as a mainstream force. With every note, Yes constructs cinema for the mind. Strictly limited to 7,500 numbered copies and pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl at RTI, Mobile Fidelity??s ultra-hi-fi UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP set renders the 1971 record with 70mm-film realism. Prized for decades for its brilliant textures, harmonics, dynamics, colors, and openness, Fragile now comes across with surreal transparency, multi-dimensional scope, and seemingly unlimited responsiveness. Such qualities transform the band??s recorded instruments into the equivalent of live guitars, basses, drums, and keyboards playing in your room. Critical aural traits?? focus, pace, crispness, imaging, balance, depth, weight, scale?? bring you face-to-face with the songs?? daredevil complexities and emerge in abundance. Ditto the detailed shades and graphics of illustrator Roger Dean??s cover and sleeve art. Aurally and visually, this is the ultimate immersion into Yes?? sci-fi worlds. - 180GR
Limited 180 gram vinyl LP pressing. Fragile is the fourth studio album from progressive rock band Yes, originally released in November 1971 on Atlantic Records. It is their first album recorded with keyboardist Rick Wakeman in the band's line-up after Tony Kaye was fired for having a lack of interest in learning more electronic keyboards. Formed of nine tracks, four are group performances while the remaining five are solo features written by each member. It's cover was designed by Roger Dean, who would design their future band logo, stage sets, and many of their future album covers. Fragile received a positive reception upon it's release and was a commercial and critical success, reaching #4 on the US Billboard Top LPs chart and #7 on the UK Albums Chart. "Roundabout" was released as a single in the US which reached #13 and is one of the band's best known songs.
