Notes: (*****) In 1975/6, all five members of Yes put out solo albums. Possibly the best Yes solo album, Fish Out of Water is still Squire's only solo album.

The album was not recorded all together. Moraz has said that he did not play with Bruford during the recording sessions as he was doing overdubs. Bruford has complained that he would have played differently if he had known how many overdubs were to be added. (HP, 30 Jul 06)
