Mercury Studios proudly announces the April 24, 2026 release of YES – From A Page, the expanded and remastered recordings from the 2010 sessions, beautifully presented in 2LP and 2CD Deluxe Edition formats.
YES revisits their 2019 four-song mini-album From A Page in a 15-track double album and 2CD Deluxe Edition, pairing the original tracks with alternate takes and demos recorded during the sessions, several of which would later surface on Fly From Here.

In 2010, after a last-minute show in Zacatecas, Mexico, the band — Chris Squire, Steve Howe, Alan White, Benoit David, and Oliver Wakeman — met up in Phoenix, Arizona to begin writing for the next YES album.
This two-week session would bear fruit in the four released songs in addition to “Into the Storm,” “Hour of Need,” and “The Man You Always Wanted Me To Be,” all of which would appear on the Fly From Here album featuring Geoff Downes after Wakeman departed during the recording sessions.
Overseen by Oliver Wakeman, and mixed and remastered by Karl Groom, this expanded and remastered edition of YES – From A Page incorporates the original four songs, along with alternate keyboard versions of three songs from Fly From Here, featuring Oliver Wakeman’s keyboard parts from the original writing sessions replacing the keyboard parts later added by Geoff Downes.
Disc 1 also features the studio version of the Chris Squire-written song “Aliens,” which was played during the 2008 In The Present tour, helping create the album originally envisioned prior to Trevor Horn’s arrival.
Disc 2 includes demo versions of many of the songs, including “Updraft,” which became the basis for the “Army of Angels” section of “Into The Storm,” “Don’t Take No For An Answer,” which was worked on during the sessions but not included on the original album, along with an acoustic alternative version of “Words on a Page” and the single mix of “To The Moment,” previously only available on the original vinyl.
From A Page will be available as a 2CD box set and 2LP edition. Featuring artwork from Roger Dean, the box set includes two CDs, a booklet with expanded liner notes by Oliver Wakeman, a fold-out poster, and five art cards packaged in a clamshell box.
The double LP features the audio pressed on two 180-gram, half-speed mastered vinyl records, packaged in a gatefold sleeve showcasing the majestic artwork Roger Dean designed for this album.
