Here we go with the last Rabin-era Yes album, and my personal favorite of the three with this line-up.

I've been dreading this album.  Very hard to find a song to latch onto as something better than mediocre.  I know a lot of folks like this one a lot, and I've just never been able to hear it.  I voted Real Love.

Understandable. I suspect that after this and the Keys material, there will be a significant drop off in participation here. I'm hoping that with the band releasing a new album in a couple months, fans will be trying to revisit some of their post-Talk material.

I like this album quite a bit, it's easily my favorite with Trevor Rabin. The first three tracks are actually great.  :tup

And yeah, this is a really good record.
Must've been Kwyji sending all the wrong songs.   ;D

FTFM

Reluctantly went with Walls. But every song on here is YesWest perfection. The best Rabin era album by miles
