Not putting down the current crop of musical artists and fans today, the author of this book captured the birth and eventual re-invention of a group that is/was composed of talented non-tablature reading musicians with a common goal of not repeating themselves and capture the imagination of three generations of fans. Having been an avid fan of Yes and their kind of music (so-called 'progressive' or cerebral rock - a flavorful mixture of hard rock, odd-time jazz and classical arias backing up vocal harmonies),these Brits have been around for more than thirty years, and this goes to show it really pays to be unique and be pioneers in a musical genre that is usually catered to musicians as well.
