FooW is one of my favorite albums of all time.

FOWW is winning so far which kind of surprises me but then again I don't think any tv shows had any songs from Voyage of the Acolyte playing in them.

Two albums that I love dearly. I'll go with Voyage, but Fish is just as good, it's mainly the personal memories I have that make me vote for Voyage.

Voyage for me, easily. Just Shadow of the Hierophant is enough to make me vote for it, but then I do enjoy the rest of the album more, too.

For me, my favourite is Myths and Legends, closely followed by 6 Wives. If it had been any of those against Voyage, I would certainly have voted for Wakeman (or at least Myths and Legends very easily, and 6 Wives would have given me a harder time choosing). Still, if it had been against any of those Wakeman albums, surely Voyage would have won without doubt the poll. |

Nope although I've just ordered the re-issue (CD + DVD) set on the basis that there is obviously a very large hole in my collection!

Six Wives and Myths and Legends are both flawless albums although my favourite Wakeman track is Judas Iscariot . Criminal Record would have been his best album but for The Breathalyser imo.

Voyage has better highs but Fish outta is WAY more consistent and has less muddled sound quality.

Gave the vote to Steve, although I, like almost everyone else commenting, truly enjoy both albums. I listen to FOoW more but that is largely because I have Voyage on lp, and I rarely listen to those now, and Fish is digital. I like the sound quality on Fish better but the music on Acolyte is just that much more stunning.

Yeah, Judas and Criminal Record are amazing as well. I wouldn't say that my favourites, but up there among them for sure. And I do agree with The Breathalizer putting down that album too. |

Criminal Record is a good album but No Earthly Connection is epic. I agree that Judas is one of the best Rick's tracks.
Anyway Fish is the best solo album of a YES member, IMO |

I'm not really that fond of No Earthly Connection... the musical ideas are to dispersed for me. However, even though I usually hate Medleys, I love the shorter live version on "Out of the Blue"... it really picks the best of the song/album and puts it in a single shorter song. As for Fish out of Water, there's something that doesn't fully work for me from it... there are many Wakeman solo albums I like much better.
