That's what I'm saying. The polls were deliberately skewed in favour of the later albums picking up more votes against the earlier classic albums. After all, if I'd put all of the YES albums together into one poll, then Close to the Edge would win easily and The Quest would most likely pick up just one vote, and you can already guess who that vote would be from. Tongue

A big poll with all Yes studio albums from debut to last one will show different results, most votes will go to classic Yes (1969-1977 or even 1971-1977).

11) Fragile
19) Relayer
35) The Yes Album

Strangely enough no sign of The Quest or H&E!
No surprise there then. Big smile

I think this poll has pretty much run it's course anyway. I keep hoping there might be some late votes for The Quest, but I might have a long wait, so I won't hold my breath. Tongue

Yes, it's an easy win for Fly from Here, but on reflection, I wonder how it would fare against Mirror to the Sky. Would Fly from Here still be flying sky high in the poll or would it be grounded on the runway? Ermm
