UNION

Union : I quote "A combination so formed, especially an alliance or confederation of people, parties, for mutual interest or benefit". I guess that it was especially their interest AND their benefit to produce this album. It could have been the best of both worlds, but in these dark times, Yes (whatever the combination you might think of) did not produce great stuff for a veeeeeeeeeery long time. This one will not be an exception : boring songs, poor melodies, no charisma, no feeling. So ? The only average song here is the opener :"I Would Have Waited Forever". Apart from that, lots of supermarket / FM music ("Dangerous" being one of the worst example). Avoid this one by all means. It follows "Big Generator" another Yes album studio I rated one star. Two in a row ....and more to come (unfortunately).
