Artist: JON ANDERSON [YES]
Album: IN THE CITY OF ANGELS VINYL (LP)

Release date: 1980/ 2013
Media type: LP

In The City of Angels is the fifth solo album by Yes front man Jon Anderson, released in 1988.
Anderson invited outside songwriters to write for him, rather than creating an album wholly of his own material. Consequently this is a straight-ahead commercial pop album and features fine musicianship from Jeff Pocaro, Steve Luthaker and Mike Pocaro, and produced by Stewart Levine.

Two songs from the album ("Hold on to Love" and "In a Lifetime") were co-written by Lamont Dozier, of Motown records.
