Album Notes An LP-style sleeve encases this Japanese digitally remastered HDCD limited-edition release. CD comes in Jpn LP Sleeve. FRAGILE marks the point when classically influenced progressive rockers Yes left planet Earth and took up residence on one of cover artist Roger Dean's far-off lands. The musical transition is apparent with longer instrumental passages taking over from the shorter song format of their early albums. Lengthy pieces open and close the album, and both songs have become Yes chestnuts. "Heart Of The Sunrise" and "Roundabout" are landmark tracks, with strong, darting solos and abrupt shifts, the latter winning more radio play for its greater accessibility. Without detracting from the exceptional work of messrs. Anderson, Howe, Bruford, and Wakeman, Chris Squire's rippling bass playing is a particularly superlative experience throughout.
