Beware the perils of the tribute album: as often as not, they only serve to remind you how great the originals are, and that's certainly the case here.

Instead, here you have slavish fealty paid by bands who are no doubt sincere in their Yes worship: note-by-note renditions of "Siberian Khatru" by Stanley Snail and "South Side of the Sky" by Cairo, for example.
