I got Yes: Close to the Edge for Christmas. |

Great prog record. Probably the high watermark of their carrer and of prog rock in general. THe music just envelops you and it is strangely relaxing. I love it. Any prog fans who don't have it should get it.

3. Hard to believe it's nearly 28 year old 4 stars! |

Two million people barely satisfy. Two hundred women watch one woman cry, too late. The eyes of honesty can achieve. How many millions do we deceive each day?

Sound Stage I think. Time hasn't been to kind on them cosmetically but they really sounded great. Saw them live in '71 I think. Still a bit foggy about those years.

I'm hazy too. Unfortunatly they were showcasing Topagraphical Oceans at the time and left out almost all of Close to the Edge. I had binoculars, and it's true, Steve Howe's hands are a blur when he really starts playing, but each note is clearly heard.

6. That is my favorite Yes Album |

although I am listening to "The Yes Album" quite a bit as of late! Just what the hell is a "Khatru" anyway? :)
