Put Beverly Hills in front of that phone number and you have a good name for a TV show.

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.

Close to the Edge is from another planet. 90125 and Open Your Eyes are good albums and better then Union. I think that Union is one of Yes worst albums.

I can't tell you that. I voted 90125 as a joke, but I also love the album. Silly poll, silly voting.

Union isn't nearly as terrible as most make it out to be and of course 90125 is a great pop rock album that a lot of older Yes fans unnecessarily poop on, however, neither is as good as close to the edge and other than as a joke I can't understand why anyone would vote for anything other than close to the edge.

I would've voted for The Quest if it had been included, but their classic 1972 album comes Close to the Edge of being almost as good.

Pick one and consider it what? Best? Worst? Unnecessary?

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.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
