Band/artist history
Yezda Urfa is a U.S. progressive rock band that formed in the fall of 1973 and existed until the spring of 1981. We took the progressive form nearly to its limit in terms of instrumentation and composition. Rather than just doing what others were doing, we did it to the extreme. We have been compared to Gentle Giant in terms of vocal arrangements and instrumentation, and Yes in terms of the rythm section and vocalist, but our sound was no doubt original. Unfortunately, we were unable to secure a recording deal during our existance. However, some eight years after the demise of the band, we were discovered by Greg Walker of Syn-Phonic, and our second self-produced but unreleased album, Sacred Baboon, was released on LP. A few years later, the album was re-released on CD.

This is definitely classic prog. rock!! Reminiscent of old Yes and Genesis. Great acoustic performance in the interlude, too.
My kind of Prog . . .Yes :) . . .this is the business. A station add.
This is beautifully complex piece of music. I love it. Hurry back guys and give us more of this. The world is ready again. And this was all before Dream Theatre and Spock's Beard etc.! This has all the right Genesis to Yes musical credentials. Fantastic.
i'm blown away that you came from so close to home, and did my parent's wedding march. i hope to see you live some day.
Hi, Excellent tracks. I enjoyed them all. Lets hope there is more to come. Regards Mike
