I listened to them both a few years ago hoping I'd like them, but I didn't.

Ok, so I had to research this; because Yes is one of my absolute favorite bands, yet I don't recognize the name.

Here's the answer: my 3 favorite Yes albums were all recorded with Bill Bruford. White joined afterwards, and they put out another 5 or so albums that got little notice.

He did play with them when they reformed in 1983 for the very successful 90125, but the drum sound changed to basically a drum machine, so I never cared to know who was playing. However, I saw them live on that tour, so I guess he's the only Yes drummer I've seen in person.
