As above.. but with a slight caveat regarding 'Yours is no disgrace' which although its not the 'best' track on te lp, its the one which i have fondest thoughts and memories (as its the first Yes track i ever heard at about 8 or 9!)

^In my opinion it's because it has a really great melody in the first section, a cool acoustic guitar transition and a very fine outro(wurm).

1. Yours Is No Disgrace
1. Starship Trooper
3. Clap
4. I've Seen All Good People
5. A Venture          (I like the mood about it, and the jazzy drumming; a bit short maybe..)
6. Perpetual Change     (more of a rocker, slow and disperse but very "Yes-identifiable" and welcome)




Yours..  and Starship Trooper: 
Two monsters really. I slightly like Yours.. better and/or listen more often.

Yeah.. and IMO beautiful and unique guitar arpeggios and I'd say transitions in general :)


Clap: 
Is special for me. Spent many hours rewinding the tape to try to play it on the guitar. When my friend, the one that lent me his brother's cassettes and CDs, told me it was only one guitar I didn't believe him.



Also, I stumbled upon an issue with YouTube Music.. 🧐 on track 9 of 'Classic Yes' it appears the one from 'Yes Album' instead of the original 'Classic Yes' live version  Angry  (that I grew accustomed with and maybe like more). Here's the live version: Smile

Benny the Clap, That's funny! LOLClap

 I never actually minded the song, don't love it , don't hate it but I get that it is not popular with many Yes fans.

 Same for me, although I'd tempted to make 1 and 2 equal first.

I've Seen All Good People come and go here at ProgArchives during this strange time of Perpetual Change, and Yours is No Disgrace if you Venture to say you prefer Sarah Brightman's Starship Trooper to the Yes version, as I do, although I realise that bizarre assertion will probably be met by a slow hand Clap amongst prog aficionados.  Smile

I've already done it with Genesis' Trick of the Tail album. Wink If I see a bunch of related songs or album titles, then I just can't resist stringing them together in My Own Special Way into a sentence or story. Smile

I used to fantasise about going out on a date with the blonde one from ABBA, but knowing my luck, it'd probably turn out to be the blonde one with the beard. Embarrassed Confused Cry
