 I think most Yes albums are tedious. I am in the small minority of
people who when he goes to listen to a Yes album, reaches for Drama,
first.

 None of Jon Anderson's annoying voice. Steve Howe grew up and started
playing solid body guitars through real amps, and the album is filled
with SONGS!!! Not mind bendingly boring album sides filled with their
musical interpretations of Zen. Geoffe Downes' keyboard parts are tasty
and to the point.

 Rich.
