Notes
The Ladder is the eighteenth studio album by progressive rock band Yes and was released in 1999. The follow-up to 1997’s tepidly-received Open Your Eyes, The Ladder was seen as a conscious return to the classic Yes sound, while maintaining a contemporary edge.
It is the only Yes album with keyboardist Igor Khoroshev as a full time member, and the last with Billy Sherwood until 2021's The Quest.

Very good pressing, flat, centered, without any noise. The sound is full, dynamic and clean. Printed inner sleeves with lyrics. Without silver hype sticker on shrink.
-
-
Edited one year agoCan I get MOV versions of my Yes discography (except the Friday Music reissues I have which are also top shelf)?
-
Nothing to add really… sounds amazing in every way. I bought this hurriedly thinking it was the MOV release (my favorite label) and once I got it and saw the Ear Music designation I was disappointed. Until I played it. Nothing disappointing about it at all.
-
My copy is clean and silent.
Yes, getting the records out of the inner sleeves for the first time was an utter pain in the arse, but I've now managed to pop a loose poly liner into each, so it's easy from here onwards.
And ...
This is a hugely underrated album, in my humble opinion. 👍🎶🎵🎶🎵
Far better than any of the crap that they have churned out over the last ten years.
-
Wow! What a fantastic pressing this is. Delightful, clean and powerful sound. On top of that, it's a blast of an album from start to finish.
-
Kinda what others have said: a well mastered, cleanly pressed, heavy-weight pressing. Sensibly priced. More importantly, the music is pretty impressive for later-career Yes. It's better than Magnification, which came after it.
-
-
Birthday present from a good friend. Fantastic album by Yes, presented in a lovely gatefold and the vinyl pressing is fantastic. Although I still clean new albums, you will be amazed by the care and attention from the pressing plant in the quality of the vinyl!
-
N°1950.
New line-up with Billy Sherwood ans Igor Khoroshev, music is really inspired, the band is happy to play, their new sound is heavier, very fine to listen, thanks Brice Fairbum.
