When Yes ran into problems recording their tenth album in Paris at
the end of 1979, it was almost the end. Yet in the 80s, the band
rallied, firstly as part of an unlikely collaboration with new wave
duo The Buggles, then with 90125, the most successful album of
their career, which spawned a number one hit in the USA with 'Owner
Of A Lonely Heart'. The band failed to capitalise on this success,
however, lingering too long over its successor Big Generator and by
the end of the decade, Yes had effectively split into two versions
of the same group. With most authors concentrating on the group's
1970s career, Yes in the 1980s looks in forensic detail at this
relatively underexamined era of the band's history, featuring
rarely seen photos researched by author David Watkinson. The book
follows the careers of all nine significant members of the group
during a turbulent decade which saw huge highs but also many lows.
Not only does it consider the three albums the band itself made
across the decade, but also the solo careers and other groups -
including Asia, XYZ, The Buggles, Jon and Vangelis and GTR - formed
by those musicians as the decade wound towards a reunion of sorts
in the early 1990s
