Since both Sea Devil and myself (Keith) are big Yes fans, I decided to throw a thread in here about the British prog group!
My BitChute channel has some Yes-related stuff I put together (my YouTube channel blocked most of it, so I started posting stuff elsewhere).
My latest compilation is "Yes: Tales from a Golden Age (Unofficial Album)" created from a variety of Yes tracks that never ended up on an official release.

There is also a Moody Blues album I compiled on there as well.

I had the privilege of a meet and greet with Yes after a concert for their Heaven & Earth tour. Glad I did. We lost the great, legendary Chris Squire within the next year. It is a cherished memory to meet the group, get autographs, and get this amazing photo with them. Everyone was just lovely.
They all signed my Drama LP and a lithograph of Roger Dean's album art for Heaven & Earth.

My fave album is hands-down Going for the One.
"Turn of the Century" is so hypnotically beautiful, the title song and "Parallels" just simply ROCK, "Wonderous Stories" is a perfect single, and "Awaken" is arguably their greatest masterwork. A perfect album.
I'm proud to have an autographed album signed by Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman, and Alan White.

Most "underrated/unkown/forgotten" album (in my opinion)...either Magnification or The Ladder.
I really enjoyed them both a lot...but neither were very popular sellers.

Did you pick up "From a Page" by Yes yet?

Nope. Can't find a good price for it.

It's only available from the UK (officially) and it contains the 4 songs + the live "in the present" set (which I didn't have), so I got it.
3 of the 4 songs are worth it. The 4th is good enough.

...and that's the thing.
I have "In the Present" already, and don't wanna pay a ton of money for an EP.

Because I despise the cover for the Yes album "Talk," I created an alternate for my media server:
