Saying 80's Yes is better than 70's Yes is like saying 90's Pink Floyd is better than 70's Pink Floyd.

crazy talk.

Granted, I like both decades for both groups, but the 70's were the high (heh) times for both Pink Floyd and Yes.

(My first concert I remember going to was a Yes concert in Philadelphia when I was like 4 or 5.)

I get where you are coming from, but it's a poor correlation. Pink Floyd only put one album out in the 1990s - Mr. Havens Jan 4, 15:47
a fewish years ago, i saw them in concert. - b! Jan 4, 14:37
90's Floyd led by Gilmour was just as good 70's Floyd. It was just different. -- nm - Remlik Jan 4, 14:27
Who the hell tried to make *that* argument? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 4, 14:17
and yet it works for Genesis. -- nm - Max Jan 4, 13:37
saying yes is good is like a crime against rock and roll...nm - x Jan 4, 13:36
So. Wrong. - Spawn Jan 4, 13:30
But...90's Pink Fraud was trying to sound like 70's Pink Floyd...at least 80's YES was distinct - The Calico Cat Coalition Jan 4, 12:39
Then again... The Alarm in the 21st Century could be better than The ALarm in the '80s. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 4, 12:04 2
- "Rain in the Summertime" is their definitive song (as is that album, I think). -- nm - JaxSean Jan 4, 12:05 1
  - That was the song of theirs that lost me. The first two albums were classics. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 4, 12:08
