YES (FOR METALHEADS) - In 40 Minutes

A Heavy Metal Podcast - The Mighty Decibel

I'll be honest. I've always struggled with getting my head around all things Yes, finding much of their discography overly complex and pretentious ... fidgety-on-purpose ear-ache-my-eye kinda stuff. However, after much training and coaxing from my brother who absolutely adores the band, I have been able to extract an hour and half of their material that sits comfortably in my best-of prog rock file. Here I have extracted 50 minutes from that file, a playlist that I hope may just appeal to you metalheads out there who are also struggling with the enigma that is Yes. I've seen all good headbangers joining the Yes call!!!
