Genesis, because Fragile is simply not a strong album. It suffers, like other similar albums by Pink Floyd and ELP, by being a bit disjointed, due to the way the musicians made their contributions. Fragile has some great moments, but overall it’s not one of Yes’s best efforts.

Genesis has my #2 an #4 here, Yes my top fave, but also Tales, which is a letdown.

I really don't like TFTO and after really trying still find myself in the wakeman camp, so Genesis all the way.

I really don't like TFTO, Fragile is excellent in parts but indifferent in others and LLDOB has too much filler in amongst the brilliance.
The other 3 are excellent, so Genesis score rather higher overall.

Yes, I like all 3 of theirs a lot. My interest is tailing off by the 3rd one.

Most of those solo pieces aren't any worse than More fool me or the battle of epping forest though. Also, there's clap on the Yes album which is a solo piece too(Yes, I know TYA isn't included).

It's really close for me, but Genesis took my vote.

Impossible for me to vote--all these albums are great and move me very much---however -I do tend to listen to Genesis more these past few years.

Yes simply because I quite literally do not have to skip a single track straight through those three records.
I can't say the same for SEBTP or Lamb.
