Relayer.  I still haven't really been able to get into Glass House.  Though in a prog community, that can probably be seen as a compliment.

Two albums I really like whilst not quite being my favourite from the band in either case.
 
In a Glass House gets it by a whisker. But I wouldn't have said so 30 years ago when i disliked GG intensely and was a bit of a Yes fanboy!

Relayer. Both albums are great, I love Glass House; but only one of those albums has Gates of Delirium.

Yes but the other has songs that are different from Gates Of Delirium. Wink
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

But Gates of Delirium destroys most other music anyway.

In a Glass House: 5 stars
Relayer: 4.5 / 5-.
 
In a Glass House is a tough one to get into, but this will be well rewarded.

Relayer is the best Yes Album.

IaGH is one of my least favorite GG albums.

I didn't find In a Glass House difficult to get into, and that was before I was exploring the more experimental/ out there so-called "prog" music (twas near the beginning of the revival of my interest in progressive rock music -- just a  couple of years before I joined this site). 

I'm kind of the opposite of Hercules.  I got into GG immediately, but subsequently my enthusiasm waned .  I still like GG, but over the last  five or so years I have very rarely played it.  I have GG albums on my iPod and sometimes put my iPod on shuffle, and it is the only one on there that i regularly skips tracks from.  I was still a fanboy when i joined this site. 

Yes was a band I was very into as a  teenager (especially for Fragile), but have barely played since then.

Relayer may be my favourite Yes album, but IaGH wins. One of my favourite albums for riffs.
