JON ANDERSON & THE BAND GEEKS: TRUE

Finally, a YES album that doesn't disappoint. Oh, I'm sorry. Did I say YES. Well, what I meant to say was, I think the band YES wishes they had made this album. What a wonderful surprise it was to hear this brand new debut album from Jon Anderson and the Band Geeks.

The album is filled with exceptional songs played with great expertise. And about Jon's voice. Did he have surgery or what? I know, for a while there, he had difficulty reaching those higher notes and that his singing often felt forced. But not on this album. Here Jon's voice sounds like that of a man in his prime.

The album has several YES inspired songs that proggers like me look for in prog rock music. The first three tracks are all really fine prog rock songs. There's some pleasant filler songs with a softer edge. And, of course, there's the obligatory 'long' track that does a swell job at serving up a good helping of epic symphonic prog.

All in all, this is a really fine album of wonderful prog music.
