I recognise sarcasm when I see it,hehe. Yes was a group of nothing but virtuosos,at least the classic line-up----percussionist Bill Bruford,bassist Chris Squire,guitarist Steve Howe,and the great Rick Wakeman on keyboards. (Jon Anderson is strictly a matter of taste-I like him,even if his lyrics are a little fruit-loopy.)

Ah. those were the days. My problem is, once a taste for YES was acquired, nothing else was listenable to me.. I played keyboards in a couple of bands, started playing when I was 5, and can't tell you how difficult life was when the likes of Wakeman was the standard below which I couldn't go. What a group.
