YESSONGS

This album shows Yes as they were up to Close to the Edge and is a fabulously exciting recording. Most of the tracks feature Alan White who had only just joined and added the weight and rock element they wanted at the time. The recording quality is lacking, but listen out for Howe's magnificent solo in Yours is No Disgrace, Wakeman's solo spot and Squire's work throughout. Hearing And You and I on this disc for the first time back in 1974 opened my ears to a whole new world of progressive music.
