DRAMA

The first time I heard DRAMA was in a cd´s store and I was poor in progressive school... I did know that JON ANDERSON was the YES singer so I hear this album whit this idea in that store unknowing that JON obviously wasn´t there... In the 1,37 minute of Machine Messiah when TREVOR HORN starts singing and the GEOFF DOWNES keyboards does that symphonic quavers after a heavy session with HOWE´s style... I said wow!!! This album is very heavy and soft prog at the same time... Wow JON, how wonderful you sing... jaja...

When I hear White Car I think the same thing... that it was JON singing so I bought the album... but in my home, when I saw who was singing and that there was the same guy of THE BUGGLES hit Video Killed The Radio Star I said wow... but is the same JON´s tone... in some parts and in some songs because there´s parts of the album that you really known that is somebody else singing, in this case TREVOR HORN... But there was titles of the album that doesn´t figure with the YES style like the song INTO THE LENS... that song is good but it seems like a pop group... I am a camera symply doesn´t seems YES... even when HOWE and SQUIRE where in this album...

But even the lyrics this is a good YES album, I could say the last really prog YES album before 90125 that is prog pop, very comercial, when many people listened to YES for the first time unknowing the progressive past they had...
