Best Band Logos: No. 3

Yes

English artist Roger Dean has made a name for himself with his fantasy landscapes, many of which adorn Yes album covers along with the "bubble" logo he debuted on the band's 1972 LP 'Close to the Edge.'

As I remember and 1970 was a long time ago but when I purchased the album Fragile the logo was on it. now mind you I bought Fragile 4 times on LP because of wear and twice on CD as the firse MIX from analoge to digital blew monkey chow and the logo may have been added to newer copies ant that is what I am remembering.
I also love the HR Giger Logo for Emerson Lake and Palmer , Dean's HAWKWIND and the Marillion Logo

LISTEN!!! IT IS BAD ENOUGH THIS POOR BAND HAS BEEN PASSED UP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME. LET THEM HAVE THIS FOR THE LOGO.

I have one reply to "Yes" being top 5... let alone on this list at all. That word is... "no."

Yep, you guys are right. Bubble logo on Edge first. I still don't know why it isn't #1, though.

The first time the buble logo was used ,was for Close to the Edge ,not the Yes Album,Shocho you need to do your research.The first album Roger Dean worked on was Fragile,that albusm didnt have the Bubble logo.it was on Close to the Edge the the bubble logo was firt used.Please purchase their new dvd on the history of the band.P.S.The Yes logo should have been number one

WHERE IS LED ZEPPELIN
don't get me wrong, i love yes but led zeppelin has some of the greatest logos ever. When they first came to be on led zeppelin four. And Rush should be in here somewhere. Good god these people wouldn't know a good logo if it bit them on the ass

I love Rush, but they're like Motley Crue in that every album has a different logo. If not for that, they'd be here.
