Oh...awful!Really the worst progressive album by Yes (if I don't count Big Generator,which is another genre).Totally boring and banal;I think the first and the last song are these things,that save the album from absolute failure.They are the only attempts for making something satisfying in this album.Obviously Trevor Rabin is the factor for destroying the musical capabilities of Yes.They have four albums with him and the three of them (without Union) are poor clones of Yes' music.Union is classic for me,but because of Steve Howe.Every little thing from the album goes wrong.The musical synchrony between the musicians and the songwriting are totally poor!.The reason for this maybe is the crisis of progressive rock as whole at the time - the second worst period for progressive rock after the middle of the 80's,which is the worst one.1.5 stars from me,because of The Calling and partly - Endless Dream.
