Got in contact with his art through Yes too. Fragile, Close To The Edge and Relayer. Their best albums IMHO.

[edit] Roundabout has an absurdly high number of views, totally deserved though

The absolutely insane thing about Yes is that (IMO) their best albums/best versions of their songs are the live ones, consistently. Something like the Yesshows version Gates of Delirium[0] with headphones can teleport you off completely into another universe until 15 minutes in where there's a lull and the crowd starts cheering and you remember this was a live recording, wtf. Yesshows and Yessongs are both mind-bending. Dean's artwork was perfect for Yes.
