I used to listen to Tales on my commute in the car every so often. On those days I planned to take the long way home to hear every note, playing air guitar on my steering wheel. This would go on for days until I got tired of listening. It is one of the few pieces I have purposefully NOT listened to for long periods in order hear it again later--sorta fresh. I am with Kieth--Tales is Yes' finest (I would also add Relayer). I can't imagine why they should consider changing a thing. The last several minutes of Ritual are magical, where Howe is simply superhuman.

Sadly, I will not get the chance to see the boys on this tour.
