Open Your Eyes was my first Yes album. I bought it in 1997 when I was fifteen. From this album I started to listen this great band. So it can't be disgusting.

Union is decent, uneven, but decent. 
OYE is unlistenable. 

90125 is great, I've always loved it.

because it's a silly poll and CTTE is such an obvious winner. Tongue

Close to the Edge is completely out of place in this poll, since it's obviously the winner. So I decided to ignore it, like the other 10 people who voted before me, and my vote goes to Union.

Contrary to popular preference, I have always loved Union, a hair or two more than 90125. Union is a little "rockier" than the "poppier" 90125. And I grew up during the 90s, so I tend to prefer that too.

CTTE obviously, but I would actually include 90125 in my Yes top 5.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!
