And rightfully so. Close to the Edge (and many other Yes tunes, including many off of Tales) are wonderfully engineered musically.

However.

I'd go best-of-three on this one. I think Spock's Beard has out-done Yes (even Close to the Edge). I'm not a big fan of the rest of their stuff (largely because I haven't gotten around to listening to their other stuff), but this one is the best built I've found.

Yes, even better than Close to the Edge.

Roger -Dot- Lee, who, being a Yes fan for MANY years, thinks that's saying something.
