The Many Faces of Yes presents an unknown side of the band, with recordings by the group as a whole and also by solo members, including rarities and other gems. On CD 1, "The BBC Sessions", the group is presented in their original lineup (Jon Anderson on vocals, Peter Banks on guitar, Bill Bruford on drums, Chris Squire on bass and Tony Kaye on keyboards) with their performances in the London's BBC Radio. CD 2 is titled "Before and After Yes' Projects" and contains songs by several members of the group recorded before and after they were part of the band. CD 3 is titled "Playin' Their Favourite Songs" and its name says it all. Members and former members of Yes playing songs from Pink Floyd, Genesis and even the AOR classic "More Than A Feeling" by Boston.
