There are no less than five 5-star albums in this poll for me (by Camel, The Enid, Fruupp, Genesis & Renaissance) and there may be even more if I'd listened to them all. Smile

I chose Renaissance over Camel only because I listen to them more these days, but they are both absolutely exceptional

Despite some great albums her, my vote must be to Genesis - Foxtrot.

I totally agree. If it wasn't for Get 'em Out by Friday, then Foxtrot would be my #1 Genesis album. Smile

Ugh, it's painful to have to choose!!! 

I went with Fragile, but could just have easily gone for Foxtrot.

I enjoy the song!  I like to taunt my friends on the phone by going into my Peter Gabriel Cockney accent!

This poll of great albums is in complete contrast to my series of Yes solo album polls which - as Cristi quite rightly says - have now become slim pickings by the fourth album, where I only know two albums in the poll. Smile

why do you always bring me up I do not know. I am subjective in my opinions like everyone else. 
I mentioned your name because I agree with you, for a change. Smile

ok then

For me there are 4 or 5 strong albums there ,but in the end chose Foxtrot....and I think we all know why.

Moonmadness, Trilogy and Fragile are wonderful albums, but they are up against the daddy of them all - Foxtrot!

For me, is very close between Genesis, ELP, and Camel. At the end, I voted for Camel, if only by a hair.
