THE YES ALBUM

This marks the beginning of Yes' emergence into becoming progressive giants. Hints of classic rock are present throughout this album but this is true, pure prog in all its glory. Songs from this record were among the first I heard from Yes and I was completely astounded by them. I knew these chaps were not normal and definitely far more superior musically than their counterparts. This album, along with many (I cannot help it), will always be special to me and I will continue to have a soft spot for it. Essential for those barely entering the world of prog; a powerful start.
