You don't like Close to the Edge? |
Sacrilege, I know. I find it decent, but it gets kind of boring for me personally. |
It's weird but actually it took me a bit to fully get into it, I love it now but it isn't in my favorite albums podium (of all bands).

No, I love a lot of songs longer then 10 minutes. Iron Maiden's Rime of the Ancient Mariner, All of Rush's epics, and many more. I love Gates of Delirium, I just wanted to give Sound Chaser some love.  As for CTTE, I just found it a bit boring, maybe I need to give it another listen, it's been awhile.
Oh, and is that Melt-Banana as your avatar?

I have all of their albums up to Big Generator, so I don't know much about their more recent stuff. There are so many excellent songs to choose from, so this is tough.
Yes - Every Little Thing (Best Beatles cover EVAR)
Time and a Word - Then (Hate is the root of cancer)
The Yes Album - Starship Trooper (The instrumental section is one of the group's finest achievements)
Fragile - South Side of the Sky (Wakeman's crowning moment)
Close to the Edge - And You and I (Lovely prog ballad brings a shiver every time)
Tales from Topographic Oceans - The Revealing Science of God (The best of the four epics)
Relayer - The Gates of Delirium (Really grows on you, despite initial awkwardness)
Going for the One - Turn of the Century (The most beautiful song Yes ever conceived)
Tormato - On the Silent Wings of Freedom (Excellent closer on an underrated album)
Drama - Into the Lens (Probably their most underrated song)
90125 - It Can Happen (Cheesy, but I love it)
Big Generator - Shoot High, Aim Low (Majestic. Holy Lamb is also a fantastic track)
