Actually, it's one of their most popular if you are a fan of the classic Yes period. If you are aware of Yes because of "Owner of a Lonely Heart", then you mostlikely would not be familiar with their early 70s stuff. At least thats what I've noticed over the years.
I guess you'd call me a 'post generation' fan, I got into them a few years back with Fragile. a year later I heard Close to the Edge, Mind blown. It wan't until I heard them live last year that I heard 'Yours is no Disgrace'
Having Yes as an influence during my formative years makes me of course a bit biassed. Having said that, I still think that Close to the Edge, Roundabout and this one are true giants in the realm of pop music. :)
