Martin Barre's "The Meeting" is loaded with rock, Jazz, blues, folkish parts, and all kind of stuff

Time and a word is the one before TYA. I agree but I actually think there's a lot of different kind of stuff on Tormato too. If you can overlook the cheesy keyboard parts there's lots to enjoy on there. :)

Yeah I think so. And you're definitely right about Steve Howe's guitar.

Any album of theirs.. really even starting from the one right before TYA up through Going for the One is a can't miss.

I can only think of a few for now:

Sgt. Peppers (and the white album too for that matter)

Also, The Yes album and maybe Fragile.

Not sure what else off the top of my head.

Try some Secret Chiefs 3, perhaps Book of Horizons.

Here's a description from Wiki --

Secret Chiefs 3 (or SC3) is an avant-garde group led by guitarist/composer Trey Spruance (formerly of Mr. Bungle and Faith No More). Their studio recordings and tours have featured different line-ups, as the group performs a wide range of musical styles, mostly instrumental, including surf rock, Persian, Arab, Indian, death metal, film music, electronic music, and various others.
