This Day in Music History: Yes/Open Your Eyes (11/24)

Open Your Eyes is the seventeenth studio album by progressive rock band Yes, released on this date in 1997. It was Yes's first "full" studio album after the twin projects Keys to Ascension and Keys to Ascension 2, which were both live and studio albums.

It is the first album with former session member Billy Sherwood on guitar, and the only one on which he also plays keyboards. Open Your Eyes reached #151 in the US during a chart stay of one week. One whole week. This album is crap.

This album is covered in more detail in the following posts: Side 1, Side 2.
