Yes

[Hart of the Matter]

The production team who worked on 90125 essentially became The Art Of Noise.

And also, along with members of Yes recorded the first Frankie goes to Hollywood album I believe...

Indulgent, self obsessed cacophony.

nailed it

 

[blue44]

One of my favourites for sure.
Andersons voice impeccable.
The musicians superb.
One of the first albums i bought as a kid was the " yes album "
Loved them from 1970 ish to Going for the one
The Gates Of Delirium" and "You and I " and " Turn of the century " can make me cry

Awaken only made sense to me when I saw it live... Reduced me to floods everytime....
High vibration go on.... Indeed

ex choirboy by all accounts.

Nope but Chris Squire was !

You can tell it’s Steve Howe doing the guitar riff on two tribes.

Once spoke to Chris Squire in Februar 2000 and joked that some of the bass lines sounded like him... He winked and joked they all chipped in... Not sure if serious but wouldn't be surprised ...

Correct.
In fact, The Art Of Noise early stuff is peppered with samples from the Yes sessions.
For example, the "DUMM" sound and all of the drum sounds from Close To The Edit are from this ...

Rather embarrassing, but just realised he's the Jon from Jon and Vangelis.

No Anderson .. No Yes. The beating heart of the organisation.




That's not to show disrespect to the other band members that were an integral part of the marriage.
Bless you Anderson, whelped from the leafy shires of Acringtonia .. happy are those called to your supper.

Laboratory standard production on that record. Off the scale.

Check out the Trevor Horn concert from Wembley … tons of great performances

 

[Two Gun Bob]

Something incredible spiritual surrounding the Aura of Anderson, who is considered to be the Godfather of progressive rock.

 

[chesterbells]

Good enough to write a song like Awaken, of which no one else was capable.

Been hammering this later track a bit recently too. I loved that Onion Tour, saw it at the NEC

Absolutely. Live version of Video Killed The Radio Star from Trevor and the band is absolutely superb.

The tension build up at the start of this track is something else until the tension is released at 3:33. Magnificent.

 

[BimboBob]

That's right plus Anne Dudley, JJ Jeczalik and Gary Langan.

Who were also responsible for Malcom McClaren's Buffalo Girls.

I have to agree. One of the best intros by any band. Although the bit in between is too over indulgent. I sometimes play the album when I have to decorate and watch the paint dry. The last 10 mins of the album are also pretty good. Off topic Rush’s The Camera eye is a very good build up.

I feel the same Bob. Without Jon they just don't feel like Yes. His voice is integral to the sound and no "sound alike" quite cuts it for me.
I know others will disagree with me re the Buggles era and I respect their opinion.

 

[Bill Walker]

Another tour next year with Steve Howe Geoff Downes.
I really feel they should stop now, it's turning into a tribute band. It's like Dave Gilmore doing a tour and calling it Pink Floyd.
