The group
Yes has had a long and complicated history. By 1989, there were two different factions, one led by bassist
Chris Squire that owned the rights to the name "
Yes," and this one, featuring singer
Jon Anderson, drummer
Bill Bruford, keyboard player
Rick Wakeman, and guitarist
Steve Howe. This quartet made an album, titled
Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe, and went on the road playing what it called "An Evening of Yes Music, Plus," which occasioned a lawsuit. Finally, all was resolved, and the next version of
Yes was a mega-edition featuring eight members, who made the album
Union.
