This is without question the best YES album featuring Trevor Rabin. It is the heaviest sounding YES album (with the possible exception of DRAMA, another underrated album), and it has some great moments, most specifically "The Endless Dream." Every track is solid, and some are quite strong. I was actually saddened that this lineup didn't make a follow-up album; they finally seemed to hit their stride here.

Once again, this is another classic example of YES prog-heads being close-minded because this isn't the "classic" lineup with Howe and Wakeman. Get over it. This was my second favorite album to come out in 1994 (after Marillion's "Brave"), and I think it has held up remarkably well over time. Don't listen to the "purists" who dismiss this album; if you want to buy a good prog YES album from the 80s and 90s, this is your best choice.
