Album Review

A stunning self-reinvention by a band that many had given up for dead, 90125 is the album that introduced a whole new generation of listeners to Yes. Begun as Cinema, a new band by Chris Squire and Alan White, the project grew to include the slick production of Trevor Horn, the new blood (and distinctly '80s guitar sound) of Trevor Rabin, and eventually the trademark vocals of returning founder Jon Anderson. His late entry insured that Rabin and Horn had a heavy influence on the sound. The album also marked the return of prodigal keyboardist Tony Kaye, whose crisp synth work on "Changes" marked the band's definitive break with its art rock roots. "Owner of a Lonely Heart" was a huge crossover hit, and its orchestral break has been relentlessly sampled by rappers ever since. The vocal harmonies of "Leave It" and the beautifully sprawling "Hearts" are additional high points, but there's nary a duff track on the album.

Customer Reviews

Utter Utter Classic

I'm not going to get into the Yes/Yeslite arguements or whether Rabin or Howe were the best guitarists...suffice to say, if I was invited to go on Desert Island Discs, this would be the first on my list closely followed by Led Zep 4 and Spock's Beard's Octane. Do I need to say more? Ok how about its an almost perfect record, superb songs, sonically amazing production, excellent musicianship and... a crap cover! The combination of Jon Anderson's voice, Chris Squire's bass and Trevor Rabin's guitar work and song writing prowess ensure that this is an album that will still be played for years to come. Its just a pity that the band have been living in its shadow ever since. Nevermind, grab a copy play loud and remember a time when music was uplifting, rocking and adventurous. Love it.

must have masterpeice

This album is a must for any collection. To say it is good does not do it justice. From the opener of Owner of A Lonely Heart to Hearts at the close of the album we have a collection of great, great songs.It made you proud to like Yes after all the years of keeping your albums hidden when punk was at its height.Chris Squire pulled off a masterstroke when he got the whizz kid Trevor Rabin in. Horn's production created a monster! Jon Anderson sings as only he can. It should not have worked but boy it does. Still sounds good today.

A one-off that shouldn't have worked.

This album came in under the radar in the early eighties. Yes were a band thought of as classic 70's prog rock and then along came this softer american rock sounding album, much of this due to Trevor Rabin's rock guitar background. No Rick Wakeman puts off the pureists amongst us but this takes nothing away from the fact that this album has something for the Dyed in the Wool yes fan and a yes newbie. Highlights for me are 'Leave it' and 'Changes'. If you are a fan of this album, and you can find it, check out the live version of this album on 9012live.

Biography

Formed: 1968 in Birmingham, England

Genre: Rock

Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s

Far and away the longest lasting and the most successful of the '70s progressive rock groups, Yes proved to be one of the lingering success stories from that musical genre. The band, founded in 1968, overcame a generational shift in its audience and the departure of its most visible members at key points in its history to reach the end of the century as the definitive progressive rock band. Where rivals such as Emerson, Lake & Palmer withered away commercially after the mid-'70s, and Genesis...
