A brand new book on prog rock legends Yes, A Visual Biography, written by rock writer Martin Popoff, is to be published by Wymer Publishing.

Yes: A Visual Biography will be published this coming Friday, July 9. The 224 page, A4 hardback book “documents the progressive rock pioneer’s first twelve years from the release of their eponymous debut album through to 1980’s Drama: A suitable name for a band whose career has been full of drama as documented in Popoff’s narrative that charts Yes’s ups and downs as the band glided out of the sixties with a full-on assault on the seventies music scene that saw them become one of the biggest acts in the world—selling out venues from New York’s Madison Square Garden to London’s Wembley Arena.”

Popoff draws on his own interviews conducted with various band members throughout the last two decades, leaving much of the story to be told in their own words, along with a smattering of album reviews by the author and others.
