So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[jazzbo]

Re-visiting another Yes album I don’t think I have listened to since I moved from Austin a dozen years ago.

An unusual one that showcases two different editions of Yes. Sure sounds great on my present system, so different than I remember it sounding when I had the Torii Mk III in the system.

One of these days, I should listen to this. From the beginning, it's been almost universally panned as "not a Yes album" due to the crazy circumstances surrounding the making of it. It's almost like the band should have been called Yes².

I never paid attention to what people might think about this or other albums by Yes. I liked that Yes morphed but retained a certain identity that had an appeal to me. The only exception are the albums without Jon Anderson. Anderson is an essential ingredient for Yes.
