| They were playing it while I was in Strawberries the other night. I'm sorry,
but I have little good to say about this disc other than that it's a bit
warmer than the previous one. Music is still very dense, not very melodic and
limited in the range of emotions displayed.
As far as performances go, though, Yes is in top form on this album. I would
rank it up there with Relayer in terms of performance and production. But I
personally do not care for this new musical phase of the group (nor did I care
for anything much after Relayer).

| The cover wins my vote for Hideous Album Cover of the Year. The performance
is top notch. The music continues the style begun with the 90125 album.
It's a heavier guitar sound and more reliance on orchestral synthesizers than
the pre-DRAMA Yes. I personally prefer their previous style.

Speaking as a YES fan from their begining, I feel this album
is excellent!( the album cover certainly does not display originality)
I still miss Rick Wakeman though. The keyboards don't drive
the band anymore, of course i've been say this since Rick left.

My only complaint is that this packaging is the pits must of
taken them a whole 5 min. on a computer for the cover and the lyric
printout total trash but the music is still exellant.
IT'S GONNA BE A SPECTACULAR SHOW/PRODUCTION A MUST SEE (this december)

To throw my two cents in...I think the album is great. I like
the new yes sound (i seem to have transformed with the band) because
I like the old stuff too. I agree the cover is ugly (is there an
award for this????) but I buy albums for the music - if I want
art I'll go to a museum.sp? Songs 5,6,7,8 should be listened to
in order if your like to listen too 4 great songs in a row.
The rest is just as good. Other favorites SHOOT HIGH AIM LOW AND
RYTHMN OF LOVE.

I give a vote of tremendous. Being a Yes fan from way
back in the days of the Yes Album it is nice to see how the band
has transformed and evolved (give or take a few members). This album
with headphones on is excellent. The clarity and depth of the music
goes beyond what most people expect from a rock album. It does not
say on the liner/disc but from careful listening I believe the
recording is DDD (digital recording). I would reccomend it to any
pop/rock enthusiast.
