I'd go even further and suggest that Union is not so much a Yes album but a Jon Anderson album featuring members of Yes. It's funny that everyone hates on Elias (who was just trying to get something marketable out of this mess) while glossing over Jon's role as the mastermind in this whole thing. I'm going to take a guess and say that if Jon hadn't wanted session musicians on Unions, there wouldn't be any. A lot easier to do that than constantly argue with Steve Howe over every little thing.
