      @@steverey8362 "Leave It" is off of 90125. The same album Owner is on, which he didn't like. I think he needs to delve into the classic era before revisiting their pop hits otherwise it might sour him on the band. Someone made the mistake of suggesting Owner as his introduction to Yes. Big mistake. He wasn't feeling it. Classic era is the way to go.

    I'm glad you gave this band another chance. This is the classic lineup of Yes:
    Jon Anderson (vocals)
    Steve Howe (guitar)
    Chris Squire (bass) r.i.p.
    Rick Wakeman (keyboards)
    Bill Bruford (drums)
    All 5 are considered among the top of their instruments. Quite literally a different band from the Owner Of A Lonely Heart lineup, with only Anderson and Squire from this lineup on that song (different guitarist, keyboardist and drummer). As a musician yourself, I knew you would appreciate this band as all are stellar musicians. Thank you for coming back.

    Glad you found the real YES. The other song you heard was YES by default, Lol..
    They broke up at the end of the seventies because Atlantic was pressuring them to write nice short pop tunes, which never suited them. They created more consecutive sprawling epic progressive rock pieces than any other group. In 1983, Chris Squire and Alan White ( drum and bass) teamed up with Trevor Rabin and called themselves 'Cinema'. YES vocalist Jon Anderson heard the sessions and wanted to be a part if it. They found themselves with another old YES pal Tony Kaye on keys, so they said well, I guess this is YES. so they used the band name YES, and since Chris and Jon were the YES founders, they had the rights. So suddenly there was birthed a VERY skilled, heavy rock pop eighties band called YES that bore little resemblance to the original. So now if you dare, dig deeper into one of
    The greatest prog rock bands of all time!.
    Oh, by the way, the actual YES masterpiece would be a little 21 minute diddy called 'Close to the Edge' from the masterpiece album of the same name. Roundabout is YES getting warmed up. You have no idea how deep the rabbit hole goes...are you sure you want the
    red pill?? Lol...

The lead guitarist on "Roundabout" is Steve Howe, who left "Yes" and joined a new band "GTR" in the mid-1980s. You should check out "Imagining" and "When the Heart Rules the Mind" by "GTR".

    Another band you’ll probably love is Traffic. Recommend The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys or Glad or Freedom Rider. Each is different from the other but all are great music. Steve Winwood is a musical genius, song writer, amazing vocalist, keyboards. Everything from blues to progressive rock to jazz. He and 3 others, Jim Capaldi-drums, Dave Mason-guitar, Chis Woods-anything else that needs playing, formed Traffic in the late 60s.
    And I’ll add my rec for another Yes song to All Good People or Starship Trooper.

    Great reaction. Next: Close To The Edge. This, the title piece from their fifth album after Fragile, is absolutely amazing. It is a long piece (18:43), actually more of a 4 movement suite rather than 4 separate songs. It took up all of side 1 of the vinyl album when it was released in 1972. The music is all over the place and the lyrics are best approached as Dadaist poetry, but hey, that's prog rock.

    The band went down from Glasgow to Edinburgh, 2 hour drive.
    Jon Anderson the singer noticed all the roundabouts in the 2 hour drive. (fact there is 22)
    So he started to humming the song and Steve Howe who was never quiet wondered what was going on.
    Together they made this song in 2 hours, of course it was processed in the studio, but the song was there!

    Chris's bass and Bill's rrumming propel this track and with the band all on form too its a timeless track of outstanding musicianship - and yet many journo's abandoned prog when punk came out - class will always shine through.

    I am soooooo sorry I or we didn't give you this song in the beginning....Yes' Roundabout was a huge hit in the US and album Fragile was No.1 in1969 to 1970.....my reaction was like yours when I first heard this song on the radio in1969...growing up with Musicians...it was pure perfection to me.....then I found out I wasn't alone....many others including a worldwide music critics were all ranting and raving about the album "Fragile." I bought the album and have been a fan ever since. They were along with Rush the pioneers of Classical Rock which is called Progressive Rock today....They are among the gods of Rock n' Roll.....so.....I am glad you answer my request. I want to request another song by Yes. It is from their first album "Yes Album"..."I've Seen All Good People." and "South Side of The Sky." I hope you will like it!!!

    This song will always remind me of Lasarium. It was a laser show set to rock music at the Seattle Center back in the late 70’s. We would get all stoned out. They would turn off the lights and everyone would lay on their backs on the carpet floor and watch the laser show on the ceiling

    close to the edge and gates of delirium.... not easy to listen to, 20 min songs but if you get it, it will change your life. Usually takes building up to but give it a shot. Also watch some of their live concerts and you can see how it is just them playing every note every time perfect!!!

    What a great prog band. I last saw them in 2003 during their 35th Anniversary tour. Rick Wakeman rejoined the band bringing his wizard like keyboards with him. What a great and memorable concert seen at the Concord Pavilion in Concord, CA. They were crisp and clean and still relevant.

    are quite legendary musical masterpieces worthy to remember.........always. :-)

    Man, I've been enjoying your reactions immensely lately, and am so glad you have gotten into YES.. Roundabout was the song all the dudes would get up enough courage to go ask a pretty lady to dance to at "The Marshmallow" back in the day (; just over the state line where it was legal to drink at 18, this was 1971 or 72, Great Memories for me Man, now that I am 67, but still Yes, thrive on that music.. Peace and Love Man and keep up your great reviews. OH Wait, a request for your Next Reaction, one you would Love.. >> Yours is No Disgrace, Live or not, doesn't matter. (:

    "Starship Trooper", "And You and I", and "Lift Me Up" - Three more Yes bangers. As to the lots of sections and lots of transitions... Welcome to the wonderful world of prog rock. Tool have carried on the idea of prog, but from the classic prog era Yes were one of the four greats, along with Pink Floyd, King Crimson, And Emerson Lake and Palmer. There's lots of fine music to explore there!
