Yes - Drama (1980) (HDCD Remaster 2001)
Japanese HDCD remastered reissue of their 1980 album. Packaged in a limited edition miniature reproduction of the original gatefold LP sleeve. The CD will play on a normal CD player but in order to utilise the HDCD format you have to burn this to a CD without any modification. The CD can then be played using WMP. Note that WMP has to be configured to play 24bit audio by going to Tools|Options|Devices|Speakers|Properties and ticking the 24bit audio box. Also your soundcard must be 24bit capable. Alternatively you can play it on a standalone HDCD player (obviously) and on a DVD player that supports HDCD.
For this one album, ex-Buggles Geoffrey Downes and Trevor Horn were drafted in to replace Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman. It rocks harder than other Yes albums, and for classically inclined fans, it was a jarring departure; but it was a harbinger of Yes and Asia albums to come. A newly emboldened Chris Squire lays down aggressive rhythms with Alan White, and Steve Howe eschews his usual acoustic rags and flamenco licks for a more metallic approach, opting for sheets of electric sound. Prime cuts include the doom-laden "Machine Messiah" and the manic ska inflections of "Tempus Fugit." Despite the promise of this new material, the band soon fell apart; Horn went into production, Howe and Downes joined Asia, and Squire and White toyed and then gave up on a pair-up with Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, which was to be titled XYZ (i.e., Ex-Yes and Zeppelin)...P.
