5 stars 1st listen. Oh my God: Close To The Edge is the summit of Prog and XXth Century music! 2nd listen: Oh my God: Close To The Edge is the summit of Prog! 3rd listen: Oh My God: Close To The Edge is an epochal album! But in other listen to remaine the feeling that puts me in condition to say: Close To The Edge is a masterpiece... but not a totally 5 stars album. Because Close To The Edge is too much a Classic prog album and in perspective is an album that in 2050 will be more appreciated tht today. In every case the three composition are at the same level: too high for a normal people like me! Like the Egyptians pyramids Close To The edge is an enigma, a great enigma: how 5 persons were able to make birth an album like Close To The Edge? The description of music is obvious impossible because Is obvious that 350,000 words would not suffice to describe this music: in fact if I speak to Mozart or Beethoven I say: listen to Mozart or Beethoven. Same thing with Yes and this Close To the Edge!
