Fragile by Yes

Nobody asked Yes to reinvent music in 1971. The British music industry was perfectly happy cranking out blues-derived rock until the planet cooled, and here comes these guys; a bassist who plays like he's trying to start a fight with God, a keyboardist just twenty-three but sounding like he'd stolen the soul of someone with a full classical education, and a guitarist who could make an acoustic sound like a weather system ... deciding that pop songs were basically too small to live in. Fragile is what happens when a gang of weirdos collectively decides that constraints are for people who haven't listened hard enough. It is one of the most arrogant albums ever made. It is also one of the most correct.
