9012Live: The Solos is the third live album by English rock band Yes, released as a mini-LP on 7 November 1985 by Atco Records. Recorded during their 1984 world tour in support of their eleventh studio album, 90125 (1983), the album features a selection of solo tracks performed by each of the five band members, plus live versions of two songs from 90125. The album was an accompany release to the band's 1985 concert film, 9012Live. In 2009, the album was reissued in Japan by Isao Kikuchi for Warner Music Japan, with two bonus tracks.
Note: "Hold On" and "Changes" were recorded on 28 September 1984 at Northlands Coliseum in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and included on the soundtrack to 9012Live. The remaining tracks were recorded on 24 June 1984 at Westfalenhalle in Dortmund, West Germany.
The instrumental "Whitefish" was written by Chris "Fish" Squire and Alan White, hence the track title.
The album reached No. 44 in on the UK Albums Chart and No. 81 on the U.S. Billboard 200 during a chart stay of eleven weeks.
