Tales from Topographic Oceans is the sixth studio album by British progressive rock band Yes. It is a double album, released on Atlantic Records in December 1973 in most of the world and in January 1974 in North America.
The album's concept, a two-disc, four-piece work of symphonic length and scope (based on the Shastric scriptures, as found in a footnote within Paramahansa Yogananda's book Autobiography of a Yogi), was their most ambitious to date.
On release it received notably hostile reviews. Gordon Fletcher in his review in Rolling Stone described it as "psychedelic noodling". Chris Welch in Melody Maker described it as "Brilliant in patches, but often taking far too long to make its various points, and curiously lacking in warmth or personal expression".
It has become a record of debate among Yes fans, with one side believing that it is way too excessive and obscure, while others believe that it is one of the band's masterpieces. Despite acquiring a reputation as an example of the worst excesses of "prog rock", Topographic Oceans became the band's fourth consecutive gold album.
Concept and lyrics by Jon Anderson and Steve Howe, except as indicated. Music credited to Anderson, Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman and Alan White.
Tales from Topographic Oceans (Atlantic 80001) reached #1 in the UK. It also reached #6 in the U.S. during a chart stay of 27 weeks.
In addition, the remaster includes a two minute intro to "The Revealing Science of God" that was edited from the original 1973 release.
