    1969 Gloversville Pressing

    A mastering engineer that should know better says these early pressings were
    made from a dupe. As this is the only version I've heard, sounds fine to me. Quiet and
    fairly detailed.

    This is the version to get if you want a UK edition that sounds as good as early Vertigo pressings but is affordable. This issue was pressed from the same stampers as the Vertigo version...

    The mastering is fantastic as expected, rich bass, immensely detailed drums and incredible soundstage.
    Zero noise, excellent pressing... sounds like I was there, but I was only 9 days old. :)

    I pretty much like all the solo albums from the Yes members. I’ve seen Jon several times solo acoustic and also with Jean Luc Ponty in small to medium sized venues. Always such class. I passed on an opportunity to see Yes in late ‘74 or early ‘75 ( and Led Zeppelin about same time) two regrets and I don’t have many. But seeing Jon solo acoustic helped ameliorate that.
    Olias Of Sunhillow. I've always considered this a masterpiece, but it might not be for everyone.

    If you liked The Prodigy or The Crystal Method back in the late '90s, this is for you!
    Otherwise, move on....

    Thank you, Tom! Didn’t even notice myself. You are one of the good ones, sir!
