Larks. Still the most musically eye-opening experience I've ever had.

"Larks' tongues. Wrens' livers. Chaffinch brains. Jaguars' earlobes. Wolf nipple chips. Get 'em while they're hot. They're lovely. Dromedary pretzels, only half a denar."

I'm 90% sure this has been done before, but it's a good comparison between two very close albums nonetheless. Larks is an understandable choice, but my appreciation of Relayer has really strengthened in the last year or so; it's my favorite Yes album now. Meanwhile, Larks is still second to Lizard.

While I like Relayer, Larks' tongues easily...

He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. Living frugally, saving his money, he died early, surrounded by greedy relatives. It was a great lesson to me -- John Barrymore

Though a close race, Lark's takes my vote, today, tomorrow and always.

Larks reset the musical landscape for me, still a top 5 album.

Yes, it was a little over a year ago. I should have searched google first. Oh well. I guess I could delete this poll but that poll only had the two options where with mine I added two more options.

Relayer for me. I've always liked the live versions of the Larks songs on USA/Great Deceiver/The Road to Red/etc much better than the studio versions

Relayer is really important to me, because itīs first prog album Iīve ever heard. But still I say Larks.
