| Yes "Fragile" How great of an album is it? 1980's top 40/MTV version of yes had some better lyrics....:^)Take "Owner Of a Lonely Heart" as the best example. A different flavor of Yes. | |
| Anything you liked at the Newport Show? Always interesting to see how different people levitate towards different things for different reasons.Absolute Sound? What Absolute Sound?No surprise audio is not much different than other pastimes in this regard though. | |
| New Bamboo Speakers Feedback I have HK Onyx Studio 2 Bluetooth speaker (powered/active of course, about 12"diameter) and it is the bees knees for ~$150 on Amazon. Very nice sound and build quality. Multiple front and rear passive radiators provide very good bass for the siz... | |
| Yes "Fragile" How great of an album is it? It's good but I tend to like The Yes Album more.Other great Yes albums are CTTE and Relayer.I'm also a Drama fan and any Yes fan should also own the more recent and wonderful "Fly From Here" if not already. |
