Album Description

World trade is layers of Yes, Saga and Starcastle. Billy Sheerwood, a parttime member of YES, is the masteridea man/songwriter of this often underrated band. The lyrics often bare resemblence to yes, still, their style remains their own. Its like someone told Yes, to get- a grip, go for it!

Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars Prog Lite from a former (LATER era) Yesman.......2007-03-08

This cd came out in 1995. Combine the mid-tempo four-square rock beats of bands like Collective Soul with a sort of Yes prog-rock aesthetic (okay, maybe more like Asia than Yes), and add really corny Ozzy-style "Oh my God we're all doomed" lyrics, and you've got "Euphoria." With all the post-punk new-wave music that has come out since the Sex Pistols declared bands like Yes and Pink Floyd "dinosaurs," it's difficult to listen to this cd and not laugh. No wonder I missed this one when it first came out (I only got tippped off to it while revisiting the early prog rock bands of the 70's with a friend who has a more extensive overview of this camp of musicians). This came out the same year as "I Care Because You Do" by Aphex Twin. Buy the Aphex Twin disc. Instead of being 15 years BEHIND the times, Aphex Twin is 25 years AHEAD.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome follow up album.......2003-11-14

Absolute genuis again JEEpers.
Imagine a YES with no gayness at all, you have an american yes World Trade.Themes like world peace,freedom and once and awhile
a love song.Bands like 24-7 Spyz,Streets,Rush,Zebra,King'X,Red 7,Rain Tree Crow are inovators of music.You either hate it or love it.My wife hates it.
This album is without a doubt, a recording marvel.It is 10 years ahead of it's time.A measuring tool of your playing to precision standards.You could argue it's corporate sounding but it doesn't have mass appeal so that screws that arguement.If you like Marillion,Dream Theater,King Crimson or YES.You should buy this album.As you can probably tell I love it because I am a YES fan but was a World Trade fan when it came out in '89.Unfortunately with the disaster at the real world trade center the band will probably never play again under that name,the closest we get is Conspiracy or Billy Sherwood solo albums which are good but not the source.

3 out of 5 stars Pick up if you're a Yeshead or Sherwood fan.......2002-10-02

Of both WT albums, I definitely think this one has the better material, although, it's not at a Yes/Conspiracy level. The highlights for me are "One By One By One", "The Evolution Song," and particularly "The Wake of the Storm", clearly the best track of the non-Squire infused tracks. The version of Say Goodbye is not as good as the one on Conspiracy, even though you can hear Squire's vocals more on this release.

Definitely pick it up if you're a 90's Yes/Sherwood/Squire fan, definitely an interesting listen.

The one con: Not an easy album to find; I had to mug Bruce Gowdy on the street and steal his copies.

5 out of 5 stars Great stuff for Yes/Squire fans.......2000-11-19

If you know "Conspiracy" - the latest joint venture of Chris Squire and Billy Sherwood - you also know World Trade's "Euphoria. That's not a conincidence: Most of the musical work has been done by Sherwood, and Chris Squire even has co-written two songs. Both have been playing together on the last two Yes albums ("Open Your Eyes" and "The Ladder"), so it doesn't come as a surprise that the music is heavy reminiscent of the more recent Yes works. It's really fun listening to this music!
