All One Big Happy Family

The Union tour was a difficult time for the band Yes. 1970's members Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman and Howe had just finished a successful tour as ABWH despite a threatened law suit from 1980's members, Rabin, Kaye, White and Squire. With the second ABWH album stalling and the record executives grappling with the idea of two bands out on tour playing Yes music, the suggestion was made, or forced upon the musicians depending on whom you talk to, that all eight players should come together as the band Yes. As Steve Howe has said, "(Union) was more in control of the producers than the players and that required a lot of compromise from everybody".

For the new album, appropriately called Union, material from the ABWH camp was merged with songs written by Trevor Rabin and then topped off by material written by members of the group once they were together. According to Chris Squire the production of this album was hardly a real union of the two musical camps involved, "I think it's important to note that on the album there was no point where the eight of us were playing together on any one song. It was really like Jon was going back and forth between the ABWH band and us like a loose cannon." Despite all the talent that was brought together for this endeavour, no one seemed very pleased with the end result. Rick Wakeman famously has said, "I call it the Onion album because every time I hear it, it brings tears to my eyes". Trevor Rabin referred to it as a "black mark" on the band's history.
