Gotta ask: what made you pick that Yes album? It is after all pitted up against two albums from the classc era.

Didn't have to think about this one - Trespass.

Trespass, then Islands.
Then Onion, but that album isn’t half bad.

Islands...

I'm actually going to have to side with the Union on this one.  I never knew that I was supposed to hate this album until I came to PA.

I'll also have to join the Islands > Trespass > Union camp. I consider the first two to be masterpieces, both notable for allowing their respective bands to meander a little more than usual, structurally, and explore their gentler sides. Not so huge on Union, though.

If there had been Time and a Word from Yes, it would have been much harder choise to me, because that one is my big Yes favourites.

Time and a Word by Yes would have made it a better contest. Union is not that good and doesn't bear comparison to two great albums in Trespass and Islands.

I'll vote for Trespass. Islands comes a very close second; almost toss of a coin really..

Union is horsesh*t.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

A nice setting to make me vote for King Crimson over two of my long time favourite bands Wink.
