Yes’ 1973 album Tales from Topographic Oceans will be reissued as a massive 15-disc super deluxe edition box set, early next year.

The box set will feature 12 CDs, two vinyl LPs and a blu-ray audio. The album has been newly remastered by Bernie Grundman (CDs 1 & 2 and both vinyl LPs) and there’s also new stereo mixes of the album in both vocal and instrumental form from Steven Wilson (CDs 3-6 and the blu-ray).

Three CDs of rarities (discs 7-9) includes single edits, alternate versions and ‘In Progress’ recordings alongside some previously unreleased material. Finally, the last two discs feature live recordings from the ‘Tales’ tour, much of it unreleased.

“The album is such a complex piece of work, arguably one of the most uncompromising and polarising albums in the entire genre history of progressive rock, so I spent a long time working on the Atmos mix to arrive at something which I hope does the ambition and scale of the music justice

Steven Wilson

The blu-ray features a brand new Steven Wilson Dolby Atmos Mix of the album, as well as “slightly revised” 5.1 and Stereo mixes also by Steven (he’d originally done these back in 2016). The blu-ray also features the instrumental mixes, although none of the other bonus material (live, rarities, etc.)

This massive box set edition of Tales From Topographic Oceans will be released by Rhino on 6 February 2026.
