Arguably three of the best tracks Yes constructed, ever.


Just add Awaken to the mix and you got it

The Revealing Science Of God
Close To The Edge
Gates Of Delirium 
Ritual

How about that for a double album?

CTTE for me followed by And You And I. I don't love TFTO or Relayer as much as some people do.

^ And you are right........CTTE for sure.....they never recaptured the power and grace of that side of the album.
The classic lineup...and as good as White and Moraz were they weren't Bruford and Wakeman.

I am rather disappointed that To Be Over has received no votes so far even though I myself I voted And You and I. It deserves more appreciation.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

^ To be Over is a rather strange song for me. The main melody is one of the most beautiful things I can think of, but the song... it just feels too long that it overstays it's welcome, and it end up becoming rather annoying. Yet, I totally love Howe's shorter instrumental and acoustic versions of the song. I only wish Yes had recorded an acoustic version of it when they were doing their unplugged sets in the mid 00's.

You mean 3 records unless you are counting Tales as two.

The Ancient. 
Captures the band at their most complex, unusual and progressive...and...their most quaint and melodic all in one go.

I find myself so burnt on CttE that I can't really enjoy it anymore. It kind of bums me out, though I'll never forget the first time I heard it. Totally blew my young mind.

Many great songs there. All really good and all essential listening. Very difficult to choose. After a long while thinking about it I eventually went for Gates as when I first heard the piece it literally blew me away.

Close to the edge to the Gates of Delerium is a set of magical tracks. Tales has quality in quantity. But CTTE edges it...But what about Radiohead, a little voice squeaks in the wilderness...

Well Tales was released on two full-length records, so yes I'm counting it as two. It's twice as long as a typical album, so that helps make this statistic impressive.
