^ Oh, you can go ahead. I'm just not sure I could make a choice... And don't worry about me: I like to have discussions with my other me.

is Script... vs 90125 a good idea for a poll?

No, I didn't mean self-mockery! At the time, I don't recall thinking it was a 'return to form' for Yes or a new direction either... I didn't get to see the tour. At the time 90125 seemed much more interesting but that has aged very badly...

Fugazi for me. Neither album is a masterpiece, and both are generally underrated,but for me Marillion's sophomore offering has aged better than Drama.

Self-parody? I don't see how they were mocking themselves... I've read the album was poorly received when it was released, nevertheless the album got some respectand appreciation throughout the years. I for one listened to the album for the first time back in early 2000s, a friend of mine had the album and I borrowed it. I loved it instantly, it's one of my favorites from Yes to be honest. |

Drama wasn't bad but the arrival of Horn and Downes didn't really stop the band becoming self-parody whereas Fugazi sounded fresh and dynamic - a band on the up...

I don't think it was decline, or is it what people say when a band changes line-up, is it decline? It would be decline if the songwriting of the new line-up was poor, which is not the case with Yes's Drama. So you've voted for Fugazi?

One band in decline versus young band on their way up...

Love both equally , two of the most interesting and inventive prog albums of the 80's and underappreciated on release.

I liked Fugazi when it was first released almost 40 (?!?) years ago. In the interest of good taste, I have since that time purged ALL Fish-era Marillion from my life.
Yet even when I was still listening to that album, I would have said that Drama is by far the better album between the two.

Both are killer albums, but Drama is lethal.

^ Agree. That's why I voted both. Not that I like them necessarily equally (if that is ever possible), but the day and the mood may make me prefer to listen to one over the other and/or the other way around...

Drama. But that's because I'm more a Yes than a Marillion fan, both are terrific albums.
