Magnification was Yes's nineteenth studio album and originally came out in 2001. The band recorded it without a regular keyboard player and filled that space with an orchestra: Larry Groupé wrote the arrangements and the San Diego Symphony Orchestra played them. It was the first Yes studio album with an orchestra since Time And A Word from 1970, and the last with Jon Anderson on vocals. The title track, Don't Go and In The Presence Of went along on the Yessymphonic Tour; on Give Love Each Day bassist Chris Squire takes over the singing.

This edition is a 2-LP, cut at half speed for the 25th anniversary and housed in a gatefold sleeve with new artwork.
