The album was the first by the band to feature all-original material. While the album retained close harmony singing, Kaye's Hammond organ, and \u003cstrong\u003eChris Squire\u003c\/strong\u003e's melodic bass, as heard on earlier releases, the new material also covered further styles including jazz piano, funk, and acoustic music. All of the band members contributed ideas, and tracks were extended in length to allow music to develop. Howe contributed a variety of guitar styles, including a Portuguese guitar, and recorded the solo acoustic guitar piece \u003cem\u003e\"Clap\"\u003c\/em\u003e live at the Lyceum Theatre, London.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album was a critical success and a major commercial breakthrough for Yes, who had been at risk of being dropped by Atlantic due to the commercial failures of their first two albums.
