In a word yes

[Rabin105]

Since another boxed set is coming out with unfinished demos that we may like but the band hates and thinks "god this is horrible how did it get on here" so the question is if you had a time machine and could have yes finish one unfinished album what would it be?

[mrgone3]

But seriously folks!Actually I would have like to hear what 90125 would have sounded like without Jon.But the rest is history. JOE

I feel like I'm in an episode of Sliders.

Great poll, Rabin105! To be honest, I'm going to have to think about this one before voting!

Actually, there is more info on the YES: IN A WORD Rhino release at yesworld.com .

okay but i'm asking for your opinion not what is happening though it says and i quote
Also included is an 80-page booklet, featuring liner notes from rock journalist and author Chris Welch, an insightful essay from author and Yes expert Bill Martin, as well as tribute quotes from Academy Award®-winning writer/director Cameron Crowe, Pearl Jam’s Stone Gossard, Geddy Lee of Rush, and Jon Fishman from Phish, among others. In addition to numerous rare photos from the group’s personal archives, the box itself features new cover artwork from Roger Dean.

Along with full-length album versions of classic Yes tunes such as “Roundabout,” “Long Distance Runaround,” “I’ve Seen All Good People,” and “Owner Of A Lonely Heart,” this deluxe five-CD package also includes six previously unreleased tracks—“Tango,” “Never Done Before,” and “Richard”; “Backing Track 2” (recorded in 1979 in London by Steve Howe, Chris Squire and Alan White); “Fist Of Fire” (alternate take from the 1989 Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe sessions); and “Last Train” (outtake from the 2001 Magnification sessions).

well there you have it and it is being compiled by steve and the members of the band (though alan says how 79 were just rough demos really rough deamos he says that he threw peanuts at rick in the middle of a song) so maybe the re recorded the songs

well i asked for what do you want finished not what do you want on a box set

[RobAdams]

I would have liked to see at least one XYZ album. Sorry I misunderstood what you wanted here. I figured any talk about YES IN A WORD was relevant.

I have a lot of the Cinema demos on my computer, but I would love to hear "cleaner" versions of them...and I would love to hear demos from the YesWest years as well.

[Hill St.]

I would love to hear Yes with Jobson on keys and violin!

[cinderella]

I would love to hear Yes with Jobson on keys and violin!

[Faceintheplace]

Yes with Jobson and also Yes as a three piece.

[glyn]

I would love to hear Yes with Jobson on keys and violin!That's gotta be the one. It could have been a fascinating change of direction

The time is ripe for XYZ. Page/Plant/Squire/White - sure, Jonesy could do keyboards and miscellaneous instruments, arrangements and production chores, too! I would pay top dollar for a cd and concert. I'd go so far as to say I'd prefer this over a Led Zeppelin reunion anyday. I think it would be KILLER!

Can you imagine?

I can but one Change Maybe Bring in Gerald Johnson instead of JPJ but defiantly it would be some cool stuuf

[hailhail]

Has to be the "XYZ" project
We`ve all heard snippets of the others
all we got of "XYZ" was a clue in different albums
I did not even know about "XYZ" till I read a thread in this site
How cool would that have been
