Description: Tormato Yes Description: 1978 Original In Shrink Wrap With Custom Inner Sleeve. Long Saw-Cut. "Tormato" is the ninth studio album by the English progressive rock band Yes, released in September 1978. The album features the classic lineup of Jon Anderson (vocals), Steve Howe (guitar), Chris Squire (bass), Rick Wakeman (keyboards), and Alan White (drums). Despite mixed reviews from critics, "Tormato" showcases the band's signature complex arrangements and virtuosic musicianship. The album includes tracks like "Future Times/Rejoice," "Don't Kill the Whale," and "On the Silent Wings of Freedom," displaying a blend of ambitious musical experimentation and more accessible song structures. The album's production was notably marked by the use of new keyboard technology, including the Polymoog, which contributed to the album's distinctive sound. The cover art for "Tormato," designed by Hipgnosis and featuring a surreal and abstract image of a tomato splattered on a torso, became iconic in its own right. The creative visual representation reflects the album's eclectic and unconventional spirit. While not as commercially successful as some of the band's earlier releases, "Tormato" reached number 8 on the UK Albums Chart and number 10 on the US Billboard 200. It remains a topic of interest for both fans and critics, often discussed in the context of Yes's evolving sound at the time and their transition from the classic progressive rock of the early 1970s to a more concise and direct musical approach.
