TORMATO

In usual disagreement with most people's assessment, Tormato adds to the list. Tormato for me was the most defining album of Yes moving away from the ostentatious, yet always awesome, super orchestrated albums to a more compact digestable material. And for sure the best one of the Going for the One, Tormato, Drama era. I've always believed that progreesive music was about progreesion hence the root of the concept. That doesn't always mean that it progresses towards what the listener wants to hear. Funny how that works. As a matter of fact it's the only one of those I can listen all the way through from the album era I mentioned before. But these are just my opinions. Enjoy listening.
