On Yesworld, I count 19 Yes albums after "90125," and I have very little use for any of them except for the ABWH album and "An Evening of Yes Music Plus," which was basically the ABWH tour recorded live. Plenty of people will defend one or another of them, and I understand that, but I find these albums uniformly limp and uninteresting. It's indisputable that Yes is composed of terrific musicians who haven't lost their talent, but I think they're making fat, lazy music that trades on their glory days. I would venture to say that you could take all 17 of those albums I've dismissed and edit them all down into ONE good CD.
I expect a hail of rocks, vegetables, and fecal missiles to start flying immediately.
