I suppose it was in 1973 that I first listened to Yes. I borrowed Close To The Edge from a schoolmate. From then on I was hooked. The artwork was a massive bonus as I was into that too.
In 1983, I remember being delighted to hear Jon singing with the band again, and although the music was a complete departure, I really liked 90125. It reminds me well of the flat I lived in at the time, in the Montpellier area of Cheltenham.
!993 has no specific memory of Yes, though I continued to buy their new releases (studio and live) throughout the nineties.
2003 has no memory for me where Yes is concerned. I think by then I’d become tired of their regurgitations of the old material done live yet again but not as well as in the past.
Fantastic to have been a fan at those important early and mid points! The benefit of age and experience! Thanks for the comment.
