| The Epitome of Yes
At this point in the group's career, they had gone almost flat-out broke to get Rick Wakeman and his extensive keyboards (and great keyboarding skills) and they tried combining their accepted style with this new excess. For that is what this album feels like: a ton of excess. Mind you, this is not a bad thing, for that means that there is something for everyone on this album, either on the long cuts or the shorter, one-minute-or-so songs. If I remember right, what the group had originally tried to do was combine the relatively hard-rocking instrumentality of Genesis with the harmonization of the Moody Blues. And this album does that, and more; it incorporates every element of Progressive Rock at that point in history. So not only is it a group masterpiece, it is also a landmark album, albeit it doesn't appear so. Put simply, if you like progressive rock, this is one album you should not pass up. You'll find something to like, whether you're a Moody or a Gabriel, or even a Marillion fan. You'll find something to like here.

Relayer Vinyl LP (1974)  Top Seller
Fragile songs Recorded in 1974. Originally released on Atlantic (18122). Includes liner notes by Doug Gottlieb, Glenn Gottlieb.
Carnivorous, alcohol-loving Rick Wakeman was always at odds with the health-food mindset of the other Yes members, though his brash pomp was at the heart of their sound. When he was replaced by Patrick Moraz (late of '70s prog obscurites Refugee and Mainhorse), it freed the band up to dive headlong into the ethereal, spiritually oriented themes that had always been Jon Anderson's stock in trade. Thus, RELAYER consists of three extended cuts (the 22-minute "Gates of Delirium" was once jokingly assessed as the reason punk became necessary). Even on the inside cover's band photo, the Yes boys look like they're in the middle of a prayer meeting. The elaborately structured arrangements take the band's loftier side to previously unreachable heights (even compared to TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS). However, it's all done so skillfully (with much credit going to Moraz) that RELAYER draws you in to its complex sonic web and fully captivates you.
Recorded in Summer and Fall 1974. Originally released on Atlantic (19135).
Digitally remastered by George Marino (Sterling Sound).
Yes: Jon Anderson (vocals); Steve Howe (guitar); Patrick Moraz (keyboards); Chris Squire (bass); Alan White (drums).
