Cinema were a short-lived English
XYZ with former Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page
. Cinema had plans to release their debut album in 1983, and were working on a number of songs, most of which had been written by Rabin.
Later, these musicians were joined by keyboardist Tony Kaye and, eventually, Jon Anderson, both founding members of the then-disbanded Yes. They started recording the album 90125, but soon after this the band dropped the "Cinema" name, and continued as "Yes".[2]
Demos produced from the Cinema sessions included "
It Can Happen" featuring Squire on vocals. "Make It Easy" and this version of "It Can Happen" appeared on 1991's Yesyears box set compilation,[3]
and were later included as bonus tracks on the remastered version of 90125 released in 2004 by Rhino Records, as was "It's Over".[4]
Unreleased tracks worked on by Cinema include "Time," a 20-minute instrumental,[5] and "Carry On."[6]
The introduction from "Time" would end up as an instrumental on 90125, titled "Cinema" as a tribute to the aborted band.[4]
