That's always been my opinion of Yes. Musically capable yet boring.

Sorry to hear you don't like Yes. I really love "The Yes Album"... I
actually find the music on that album pretty damn catchy in a sort of
Rossini-like way. I also think "Fragile" is excellent, although I've
probably heard it enough times for one lifetime... after that they
started to lose it.

PS. On your recommendation I checked out the Peanut Butter
Conspiracy... I found "The Peanut Butter Conspiracy Is Spreading" to be
mostly pretty hokey except for "The Market Place"... I liked "The Great
Conspiracy" much more. Also Beechwood Sparks (the eponymous CD)... I
like it, although curiously, I think the weakest songs are at the beginning.
