I'd think that Red is somehow to KC what Relayer is to Yes. Sure they're not similar, but I find "frenetic noisy energy" rather in Red than in LTIA. |

Probably the first two KC albums, by virtue of being the most symphonic. Or perhaps you could draw a very loose connection between the frenetic, noisy energy of Larks and Relayer? *shrug*

It feels strange but quite funny to compare. Let's guess...
Nr1 Lizard lineup Lizard has picked bass sound, non-mellotron keyboards plus an epic piece with Anderson singing on it, all important Yes features. Nr 2 72-74 lineup Start of TFTO part three recalls LTIA part One (wah bass, kalimba). I cannot count Bruford's drumming for (studio) KC as a major link to (studio) Yes because his playing is quite different there from the one with Yes. Nr3 81-84 lineup Belew brought ways to KC that can be compared to what Rabin brought to Yes, both bands developping their own prog pop... But that's pretty much everything. Other lineups having less substantial stuff in common. What would be your list ?... Edited by jayem - December 04 2017 at 07:41 |

^ Yeah...Anderson's guesting is really the only thing that makes KC remotely related to Yes. (even with the bruford connection) and even then its a bit of a stretch

The closest they ever got was Jon Anderson guesting on Lizard, or maybe later singing, "does the color of the sun turn crimson white"...other than that, my answer would be none...apples and oranges

At the moment, I'm either listening to one of them each day, with no crossover. Any ideas?
