In A Word: Yes (1969 - ) is a five CD box set Yes encompassing their entire career from its inception in 1969 to 2001 - including material from the 1989 Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe album, while interspersing some new rarity material. It was released in 2002.

The sonically-improved and more expansive successor to 1991's Yesyears, In A Word: Yes (1969 - ) marked the beginning of Yes's association with Rhino Records, who would remaster and reissue the band's core Atlantic Records catalogue throughout 2003 and 2004 - while adding many of Yesyears previously unreleased performances as bonus tracks on the individual newly remastered CDs.

In a Word: Yes (1969 - ) was well-received critically upon its release, but failed to chart in the US or UK.
