My Musical Evolution – Part 204 College Intermission 90125

Yes 90125am I the only one that keeps accidentally calling this album 90210? It wasn’t always that way.  90125 refers to the catalog number of the album not a zip code.

By the time 90125 was getting air play, I had heard a few of the classicYes songs. This album although quite good didn’t sound much like their older stuff. I suppose there were plenty of people who were upset by that.

I had to have liked this album pretty well to buy something outside the sphere of Heavy Metal-dom.  I’ve listened to this all the way through enough times to be very familiar with every track.

It was hard to select just a few tracks to share here. 90120 may not have that broad timelessness like Dark Side Of The Moon but it does play well and I have to tell you that I’m really digging the groove right now. It is another instance where I suddenly regret my abandoning of playing complete albums more often.

Aric and I sawYesat the Coliseum in August of 1984 but he doesn’t remember it.

Leave It – I almost put this album into The Rise And Fall Of ’84 because of this song. Once in the mall parking lot, Lisa and I sang the opening to this song together and we nailed big style.
