40 Years ago today (8/17/80) Yes turned the page on their sound and lineup with the release of Drama, which featured Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes of The Buggles on vocals and keys, and the departure of founding member Jon Anderson (vocals) and keyboardist Rick Wakeman. Aside from 1983’s 90125, Drama is a leader in Yes albums that non Yes fans might most enjoy. With modern keyboarders and a vocoder, Drama sounded very current for its time and its songs still retained progressive elements particularly “Machine Messiah” and “Tempus Fugit.” Watch Drama era Yes perform “Into The Lens” – a song The Buggles reworked as “I Am a Camera” for the 1981 album Adventures in Modern Recording/
