90125 has its moments, mostly in regards to 'Changes' and the closer 'Hearts'. Big Generator has a few good cuts as well. If you took the best material from those two albums (and possibly Union) and put them together you've have one of the best prog/pop crossover record of all time.
No. I feel that Chris Squire slunked out of being at the helm of Yes when he hired Trevor to write that gaudy Pop album. Just cause Yes had the history of being Prog, it doesn't make that shlock by Trevor Rabin anything close to Prog, nor is it a great example of Prog/Pop crossover. If you want the best Prog crossover album ever than that distinction should rightfully go to Saga for Worlds Apart.
