90125 is the eleventh studio album by the English rock band Yes, released on 7 November 1983 by Atco Records. After the group disbanded in 1981 after touring their previous album, Drama (1980), bassist Chris Squire and drummer Alan White formed Cinema with guitarist and singer Trevor Rabin and original Yes keyboardist Tony Kaye who had left in 1971. The group adopted a more commercial and pop-oriented direction as the result of their new material, with much of it derived from Rabin's demos, with former Yes singer Trevor Horn as their producer. At the mixing stage, former Yes singer Jon Anderson returned to record the lead vocals, which led to Cinema changing their name to Yes.
90125 was released to a generally positive reception and helped introduce the band to a new generation of fans. It reached No. 5 on the US Billboard 200 and No. 16 on the UK Albums Chart, and remains their best selling album with over 3 million copies sold in the US. Of the album's four singles, "Owner of a Lonely Heart" was the most successful and is their only song to top the US Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks charts. "Cinema" earned the group a Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance. Yes toured the album in 1984 and 1985 which included two headline shows at the inaugural Rock in Rio festival. The album was remastered in 2004 with previously unreleased bonus tracks.
