I just realized something about my favorite band that makes me a little scared and sad. Did you folks realize that we are currently in the longest gap ever between Yes studio albums? The longest previous gaps were four years, between 1980's Drama and 1983's 90125 and 1987's Big Generator. There was also a four year gap between Big Generator and 1991's Union, but ABWH came out in 1989 and I count that.
But Magnification came out in 2001 and it's 2006 with no signs of Yes going to the studio anytime soon. Could it be... over?
