Title: Open Your Eyes...But Cover Your Ears
Review: This has to be the WORST Yes album to date. After Union and Talk I had lost faith in Yes being able to actually come with anything interesting anymore. But then Keys I and II came out and while the new studio material on Keys I was not that great, Keys II offered up the strongest Yes material since Big Generator and 90125.This album, however, does not follow in the footsteps of Keys 2 at all. Instead of songs with substance, we get songs without direction. I literally cannot recommend one good song on this album. The songs are simply awful.As much as I think Trevor Rabin began to swamp the Yes sound by the time Talk came out, I wouldn't mind having him back to restore a sense of power and melody back to the band.
Is the review positive or negative?
