Oh yeah, I make no secret of my inability to get into 70s Yes. And so far it's been borne out here. All I'm doing here is - well, two things really - trying to show WHY I don't like the earlier stuff, and how I have at least given it a chance and also seeing if maybe I'm wrong, if I've been overly harsh or judged their seventies output on the few albums I'd heard until I started this.
So far, I've not been proven wrong.
I don't expect by any stretch to suddenly get into 70s Yes. It would probably be nice if I was surprised but I don't see it happening. It's just an exercise so that I can say later, arms folded, defiant look on my face, there! I tried it. I gave it a chance. I don't like it, and I've shown you WHY I don't like it. Now let us never speak of it again.
I'm also curious to see what happened after the rather disappointing The Ladder, if I'm honest. That's some time away though.
