Released in July 1976, the album was a conceptual work recounting the story of an alien race on a journey to find a new world following volcanic destruction on their home planet. All music on the album was written and performed by Jon Anderson and the recording took place at Anderson's Buckinghamshire home studio whilst Yes were on hiatus following the tour to promote the album "Relayer". Initially recorded on an 8-track tape machine, the arrangements were then re-recorded on to a 24-track tape machine. The album saw Jon perform the music entirely alone, teaching himself to play keyboards and acknowledging the influence of such legendary musicians as Rick Wakeman, Patrick Moraz and Vangelis on his work. Indeed, it was even rumoured Vangelis performed on the album, something the maestro would deny in interviews. "Olias of Sunhillow" was released by Atlantic Records in the summer of 1976 in an elaborate gatefold sleeve designed by David Fairbrother-Roe and was a top ten album in the UK. This Esoteric Recordings edition has been newly remastered from the original album master tapes and fully restores the stunning original artwork and also features a booklet with a new essay and exclusive interview with Jon Anderson. Over the ensuing years the excellence of the album has led to many calls for the album to be remixed in a 5.1 Surround Sound format. Alas, despite extensive research, the multi-track masters of the album cannot be found. However, this expanded edition of "Olias of Sunhillow" features a DVD featuring a high resolution 96 kHz / 24-bit re-master of the stereo mix and also includes a high resolution 5.1 Surround Sound up-mix derived from the original stereo master tapes as an additional feature.MPN: QECLEC22748Type: RockCountry/Region of Manufacture: USARelease Year: 2021Tracks: Disc 11: Ocean Song2: Meeting (Garden of Geda)/Sound Out the Galleon3: Dance of Raynart/Olias (To Build the Moorglade)4: Qoquaq En Transic/Naon/Transic To5: Flight of the Moorglade6: Solid Space7: Moon Ra/Chords/Song of Search8: To the RunnerDisc 21: Ocean Song2: Meeting (Garden of Geda)/Sound Out the Galleon3: Dance of Raynart/Olias (To Build the Moorglade)4: Qoquaq En Transic/Naon/Transic To5: Flight of the Moorglade6: Solid Space7: Moon Ra/Chords/Song of Search8: To the Runner Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
