Yes-Close To Edge

It did nothing for me,I played once last night and twice today and it's everything that I dislike about prog music,long and incredibly boring,**** me the intro alone was four minutes long apart from a few ahhhs here and there,it got better around ten minutes in when it went into a kind of dreamy sequence but all in all it's just not for me,the dreamy bit saved it so it's 5/10

The good news...

I ended up playing some solo work of Jon and absolutely loved it,I Hear You Now is so beautiful I envy those of you in love 10/10, I'm going to listen to the first two solo albums next
Fair enough. At least you tried.

I listened to "I Hear You Now" earlier. I must have heard it before because I recognised it.

I liked the vocals but for me the overall sound is a bit wooden/staccato. More like Synth-pop (which I never liked) and nothing like the depth/complexity of a Yes track.

Everyone to their own I suppose.
