Yes-Fragile (1971)

At the beginning of the 70's, Yes were in the creative zenith, creating works as spectacular as "The Yes Album", "Fragile", "Close To The Edge" or "Tales from Topographic Oceans", taking them to the top of progressive rock and with millions of fans hallucinating with the sound that this group constantly created.
In 1971 Yes they released "Fragile", which would eventually become one of the most capital albums in progressive rock. With two long suites to recreate an atmosphere of the most diverse such as "South Side Of The Sky" and "Heart of The Sunrise", in addition to the forceful "Roundabout".
Each member explores and shines in different parts of the album, Chris Squire on "Fish", Steve Howe on "Mood For a Day", Rick Wakeman on "Cans And Brahms", Jon Anderson on "We Have Heaven" and a Bill Bruford that is plethoric throughout the album.
But apart from these personal highlights, what was really important is that for the first time the authentic Yes sound is heard, which would create a school for posterity.
