BEGINNINGS

steve isn't a good vocalist alone...his voice is flat, but lemme tell ya what, his creativity for writing is superb!!!! i love this album...with "nature of the sea" getting the highest mark. the whole album is very nice however, and i would recommend this for anyone that likes yes music, or steve howes' guitar playing. he is joined by a great line-up with some fellow yes musicians as well. it's to bad that he didn't have these songs for a yes album, considering this album was recorded during their year off in 75. it woulda been some great yes music. i'd give this album 5 stars....but the singing wasn't all there...needs jon anderson for sure.
