4 stars Compared to the 2 closely related albums, this one has better exploited backing vocals and a more boosted bass. Actually, it still sounds like Yes, but shall we add it sounds a bit like Asia, especially the guitar arrangements. The record is still very progressive. Nevertheless, I must admit that the songs are less catchy. The keyboards are surprisingly not really modern: still those moogs and organs that sound like the Yes' "Close to the edge" album! The best of their albums still remains their first one, and you should like this one too, after couples of listens. So, if you like Yes, then you will like this record.
