I plan on it. I still really want the albums. I love the three albums I do have, and I'm still missing two absolutely crucial ones, Foxtrot and The Lamb.
Phil Collins is a very good drummer, and I haven't heard enough of Bill to really come to a conclusion yet. I love Fragile a ridiculous amount, and it's the first Yes I've ever heard besides Yessongs, the DVD of which I rented.
I have to say, Jon Anderson doesn't really bother me, and I'm the type to usually place a lot of emphasis on the vocals. I pretty much agree with John - that he's using vocals as a counterpoint, another instrument, rather than as a normal singer might. And, darn it, his vocals on Heart Of the Sunrise are very emotional. The way he sings "I feel lost in the city" shatters me every time, even though the lyrics make absolutely no sense.
