It's amazing how the OP picked every Yes album I don't like.

Tales! Despite being a flawed diamond, when it shines (as it does on Sides 1 and 4) it does so very brightly.

Tales... has plenty of votes, time to show Time and a Word some love, I'm quite fond of it being one of the first Yes albums I heard, together with The Yes Album. Long time ago, don't make me count...

Has to be TALES

Tales of course... with Tormato laying waste to the rest of the choices on account of some really great stuff on that album.... even with Wakeman's f**king Casio sounding keyboard trying to ruin it...

Tales for me followed by Tormato, The Ladder and Time and a Word

The only thing I don't like about GFTO is that "parallels" is too dependent on the organ. If it sounded more like the live version from Yesshows(ie synthesizer and not just organ)I would have no problem with it.

Tormato, then T&aW...

Tormato would be better than the relatively poor GFTO if Awaken was on another album.

If I had to choose just from the list it would be Tales followed closely by Time and a word. Tormato had a few good or interesting tracks but not a favourite. It is the last Yes album I listen to now and again. After that I tend to give up with their albums.

Taylor Swifts from Topographic Oceans is tedious to be sure, but the least unlistenable in this group of albums.

Tales from this list. But definitely not my favorite Yes album, not even top 3. Might just squeak in my top 5(at number 5).

I thought that I'm part of the anti-Tales group but from this list I can't really pick anything else.

An easy vote from me for Time and a Word, which to my purulent ears is Yes' most enjoyable album.
