"Each of the album's four long tracks are carefully structured and allow for greater instrumental freedom than their shorter counterparts. Frequently, a particular melodic theme first stated by one musician is echoed by another, such as in Yours Is No Disgrace and I've Seen All Good People. Organist Tony Kaye, guitarist Howe and bass player Chris Squire play as though of one mind, complementing each other's work as a knowledgeable band should.
(Rolling Stone)
"With Howe on board, the band took a quantum leap forward, moving into the forefront of a complex new style critics would label "progressive rock." The album's opening cut, Yours Is No Disgrace, quickly established the new approach. Clocking in at over nine minutes, the song is a virtual rock and roll concerto, traveling through several distinct movements with varied tempos and styles ranging from energetic, even dramatic rock and roll to ethereal folk."
(Daily Vault)
"Sometimes things happen for a reason, and it was the recruitment of guitarist Steve Howe to replace [Peter] Banks that turned Yes into a band that finally delivered on the promise of its first two recordings. A far more versatile guitarist-beyond his distortion-drenched rock capabilities, also versed in everything from classical music and jazz-tinged musings to Chet Atkins-style country and Travis-style picking-Howe also proved to be a writer of worth."
