90125 is the eleventh studio album by the English progressive rock band Yes, released on 7 November 1983 by Atco Records. [5] After Yes disbanded in 1981, following the Drama (1980) tour, bassist Chris Squire, drummer Alan White and Trevor Rabin (guitarist, singer, songwriter) formed Cinema, and began recording an album with original Yes keyboardist Tony Kaye, who had been fired in 1971.
