5 stars This is the first album that really got me into music, deeper than i had been able to experience before. It showed me a whole other world that didn't sound like anything i listened to growing up. progressive rock man. If i hadn't liked jon anderson's voice I may have misplaced the album a week later, but in my opinion he has fantastic voice (especially on his first solo album Olias of Sunhillow). But as for this album. Close to the edge, the title track is almost perfection and rocks way hard. And you and I = beautiful, Siberian Khatru = Groovy. America is one of their best tracks, unfortunately (but no so much) you would have to get the remastered Fragile album to hear the cover of America in it's entirety. No reason to try and describe, you have my recommendation. Go out and buy it, listen to it, and realize it's greatness being one of the peaks Yes had made in their musical career.
