Contrary to blindtoad, I kind of agree with Stefanovic, except maybe concerning Yes (I do, however, think Howe is overrated, and I don't like his guitartone).

Howe isn't Fripp or hackett but he's Howe(Guitar player in this case is a personnal opinion) Howe bring a new sound to Yes. Is aggressive sound with acoustic guitar bring something, he also play classical guitar... His acoustic solo work are improvement for many guitarist.. is jazz work with some musician are great (recently the album with Martin Taylor)

Wakeman is one of the best keyboard player of all time, (maybe is solo work demonstrate it more) is classical influence bring something to the band.


But it's your opinion:P and I respect that!
