Close to the Edge (Yes album)
}}
''Close to the Edge'' is the fifth studio album from the English progressive rock band Yes, released in September 1972 on Atlantic Records. Following their success with ''Fragile'' (1971), Yes began to produce extended pieces which resulted in ''Close to the Edge'', an album formed of three tracks with the 18-minute title track occupying side one and "And You and I" and "Siberian Khatru" on side two. When recording for the album finished, drummer Bill Bruford had grown tired of the band's style and song writing methods and left to join King Crimson.
Released three months into its supporting tour, ''Close to the Edge'' was a commercial and critical success for the band. It peaked at number 3 in the United States and number 4 in the United Kingdom. "And You and I" was released as a single that reached number 42 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart. The album is certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling over one million copies.
==Background==
Following the release of their fourth studio album ''Fragile'' (1971), Yes enjoyed their greatest commercial and critical success since their formation. When their well-received 1971–72 tour of Europe and North America to promote the album ended in March 1972, the band started work on their next record. The line-up during this time was singer Jon Anderson, bassist Chris Squire, drummer Bill Bruford, guitarist Steve Howe, and keyboardist Rick Wakeman.
