FRAGILE

I have read through several of the rather long reviews submitted here, and I do appreciate the well thought out facts and feelings the collective reviewers have shared but I would like to get straight to the point. I was lucky enough to have an older brother who was in to progressive rock and I was introduced to YES when only a young kid. Fragile was and is a fundamental recording for any thinking human as it affects the listener on so many levels. I was introduced to progressive music with this album and thank God. This collection of songs will introduce the listener in a very accessible way to the modern equivalent of the classical greats. I won't argue whether Fragile is the best work from Yes as I enjoy most of their work on different levels, what I will say is, if you want to explore the amazing body of work of Yes or just 70s progressive rock in general you can't go wrong starting your journey with YES Fragile. Five stars
