In 1990, when most of the original members of Yes were working under the name Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe for legal reasons, Jon Anderson recorded a batch of demos for what would have been the second ABWH album.
When the band reunited with Chris Squire under their original moniker, the ABWH project was abandoned, and the songs fell between the cracks.
This collection preserves those demos as a part of Yes history.
The arrangements are fairly bare-bones, mostly electronic, but one can imagine the elaborate sonic garments of the Yes men being draped over the skeletons of these songs without too much effort.
