At first, I was a little apprehensive about the new album, seeing that Trevor Horn was producing it.

I have to admit that although I am a HUGE fan of Yes, "Drama" was not one of my favorite albums.

But when I heard the "Fly From Here" album, I almost fell over! What an incredible piece of work!

I can't stop listening to it. I miss Jon Anderson on vocals, but I think the new singer blends in terrific with the rest of the band.

Chris Squire does have one lead vocal on a previous album, which is "Can You Imagine" from Magnification. That song had its roots in the XYZ period of the early 80's work with Jimmy Page.

I always liked Drama because Squire's voice is so strong in the mix. Ever since then, I've appreciated his voice as a lead singer and hoped for more solo efforts.

Your right of Course Jim.. forgot about that one. I also agree with your assessment of Chris's singing.. people always say what a great vocalist Jon is etc.. but I think Chris made him sound better. He is like Montana's Rice or Gretzky's Kurri.
