Me, I'm going to go with NOT CRAP today. I'm feeling generous.

Wait, I'm assuming 'yes' means NOT CRAP. These non-analagous binaries are confusing. They must scale!

I like a few of their songs, though (remember hearing a couple in the Vinnie Gallo movie Buffalo '66)

I listened to Yes all the time in my youth, & saw them once in maybe 1982 or something... I hardly remember the show. But I picked up Yessongs last summer before a drive to St. Louis, and boy did I drive fast & howl along to that shit. That singer can really squeak. The drumming is great, great rock grooves which most drummers in similar bands never seemed to play.
I don't know if they were ever subtle in any way. It was all excess and bombast, musically, conceptually, lyrically, etc. Still I like them.

I saw Yes in 1976-
Steve Howe did great seagulls from hell stuff on the pedal-steel. Alan White had a whole set of North Drums behind his regular kit, and Chris Squire did the Yessongs/Fish solo w/ the Moog Taurus Bass pedals and everyone thought the arena was going to cave in.
Not Crap.
