Yes: Tales from Topographic Oceans - 1974: Perhaps no band and graphic
artist are as inextricably linked as Yes and Roger Dean. Dean's surreal
landscapes were the perfect visual depiction for prog-rock's most cosmic
ambassadors. With its incongruous pairing of rocky topography and sea life,
Dean's cover for Yes' four-song magnum opus is probably his most unusual,
but also perfectly appropriate for a band then bent on breaking artistic
boundaries.
