During the short period away from Yes in the early eighties Jon Anderson
recorded a number of albums including Animation in 1982.
Animation was critically well received was released shortly before Jon re
joined Yes for the hugely successful 90125 album and in fact is perfectly in
tune with the modern feeling that pervades both releases.
This re-issue contains two bonus tracks: Spider, which was the B-side of the
original Surrender single; and the never-before-released track, The Spell,
which was an outtake from the Animation recording sessions.
The album was produced by legendary British producer Tony Visconti and
features performances from many fine musicians including JackBruce, Clem
Clempson, Ian Wallace, Simon Phillips and David Sancious amongst others.
The album has long been considered an important album by the Jon Anderson
fan base with many fans campaigning for its reissue on CD.
