I decided to name these caches after tunes I heard while placing them. Hope you enjoy the peace and quiet of the Quabbin Reservoir.
"Yours Is No Disgrace" by Yes;
After two albums that only hinted in places at the sheer majesty that Yes were so eminently capable of, The Yes Album fulfilled every promise from the outset, opening with ten minutes of "Yours Is No Disgrace" that fearlessly set the group on the epic course it would pursue for the next five years. A tensely grinding staccato introduction sets the stage, before in-coming guitarist Steve Howe bows in with both swirling guitar and menacing riffing. From there, the song leaps and bounds across a storm-tossed sea of musical changes, the journey from dazzling brightness to stygian darkness as effortless as flicking a light switch on and off, while Anderson's lyric... "on a sailing ship to nowhere"... itself conjures a mental image that the music cannot help but echo.
The song's construction is something that the group would return to on several subsequent occasions (most successfully via "And You And I") and, by that token, "Yours Is No Disgrace" can be regarded as a mere rehearsal for the group's future magnificence. At the time of release, however, it was unique - and, listened to in isolation today, it remains so.
