From the Witchwood is one of the finest albums ever recorded.

Why not include Just a Collection of Antiques and Curios? Wakeman was all over that album.

Six Wives is also brilliant and - heresy - I like Asia's debut.

The answer is simple: I wasn't even aware of its existence. But I'll sure give it a listen!

It's unusual in that it's a live album of previously unreleased material (except for a much extended version of Where Is This Dream Of Your Youth).

A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

One of a Kind gets my vote...I'm not a big fan of fusion-prog but this is my fave from the list...

Long Distance Voyager is good ear candy.

Bruford is good, the others I never play anymore.

Quite partial to Olias of Sunhillow, followed closely by ABWH.

Welcome to the middle of the film.

There are many I don't know. I particularly know and like Wakeman's albums, specially the King Arthur one, and the Henry the VIII one.

Why isn't more of Anderson's solo work listed? I am afraid that 'Fish' gets boring at times... And what about Alan White's under-rated 'Ramshackled'?

To be honest, I never cares that much about Ramshackled and I didn't thought it would get any vote, so I excluded it as there's only a limited number of voting options

Overall quality-wise, it has to be Squire's Fish, closely followed by "Buford"'s One Of A Kind (would love to see a Bufo Calamita vs. Rana Ridibunda poll one day)

I have given The Story of I a listen to refresh my memory, but I'm afraid today is not my Moraz day. Not vote therefore, for now.

For some reason, I'm not allowed to vote in the poll. I'd probably give it ABWH, but Asia is a pretty close second. Then again, I admit I have listened to only a handful of those albums (despite being a massive Yes fan), so maybe it's just as well.

I think that's because you haven't collected enough "points", or whatever it be that one collects by posting on the forums. Try again when you have reached 10 points or something.

Or, maybe it's because you were going to vote for ABWH Big smile

instead of swimming with the current

Or, maybe the admins are wondering about your login name Geek

1975 was a good year:

- Best Yes-related album: Chris Squire's Fish Out of Water (1975)

- Best Yes-related track: Jon Anderson & Vangelis' "So Long Ago, So Clear," from the otherwise Anderson-less Heaven and Hell album (1975): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjj3Y1tuLO4

- Runner-up track: While there are many great ones to choose from, I have a weak spot for Steve Howe's "All's a Chord" (vocals and all! Brings a smile to my face every time :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3hMVdwJVRg
