90125 had a better producer, but Drama had better musicians.

I'll take Howe + Downes over Rabin + Kaye any day.

I would have to say that Drama is more impressive than 90125. It seems that Yes and Genesis have something in common, when their most respected guitarist leaves, all the progressive-ness goes, too. After Drama, Yes became pop, Howe was the one keeping the Progressive sound alive.

Yes had to go all 80's King Crimson (who originally went by Discipline and changed it back to King Crimson) and change their name at the last minute from Cinema to Yes, too.

I'd take the Drama lineup as well.  Trevor Horn's vocals were not too different from Jon Anderson's, and as flowerchild pointed out, Drama sounds a lot more like Yes than 90125.

Drama is more YES and much better, IMO. In fact, from start the "90125-lineup" was supposed to be called "Cinema", but at the last moment they changed their minds and descided to call the NEW BAND, Yes instead. That says a lot

Hi Everybody, 

At the time when “90125” was released, I read an interview with Trevor Rabin saying that formation of that album was better then the “DRAMA” line-up. Because the true soul of a band was the vocalist (Jon Anderson). 

In my opinion (as I said once here in the forum) is : I think the TR Yes is not the true Yes. I think it`s a wonderful band, but not Yes. 

I really think  the DRAMA line-up is better. I think their sound is more the Yes sound. 

So, what do you think is better: DRAMA or 90125 line-up ?

 

Best Greetings...
