Well the link for me is that these are some of my least favourite albums from my four favourite bands.

All great albums but Nursery Cryme is my favourite Genesis album and I prefer other albums by the other artists.

Yeah, this. Hard to pick something over Relayer but NC was my first prog album and it has Musical Box.

Relayer is superior.

4 great albums indeed.

Nursery Cryme is fantastic, but still not quite peak Genesis. The Power And The Glory is fun and addictive, but not quite up to the greatness of some others here. Relayer is a excellent record, though the rather treble heavy production and rather inaccessible nature of the compositions holds it back for me. Animals is.... the greatest thing Floyd ever did, barely beating DSOTM.

I go with Floyd.
Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :)

When faced with such difficult choices, I always go for first love.  This time it's 'Relayer' which I bought when I was 13 - my first Yes album!!

The Power and the Glory, Relayer, Nursery Cryme and Animals in this order.

Animals is overrated IMO, it doesn't sound as progressive/psychedelic as many people say. It's mostly blues with a touch of progressiveness. Nothing compared to the insane Gates of Delirium, for instance.

Voted Relayer but this was quite a challenging poll, Animals and Power and the Glory both gave it a run for its money. Nursery Cryme was the obvious fourth for me, but it wasn't far off by any stretch of the imagination.

Much like the bands themselves who made these albums, I love Relayer, Nursery Cryme and Power and the Glory. I like Animals.

Relayer for the win.

All great albums.
Relayer takes it for me-never did a Telecaster rock so hard and soar so high.
