Comments: Wakeman's renditions of his own songs, and of Yes'
songs suffer from cheesy keyboard selection. Although, Wakeman
shows his skills on the keys, and some of his arrangements of Yes
material are interesting, the keyboard selections detracts from the songs
immensely. The rendition of "Going For The One" in particular reminds
me of circus music. This may be the poorest effort of any Yes members
solo performances. (*)
