None. Not impressed at all with Fly From Here, the solo stuff is, well, solo stuff and not fantastic, Squakett is okay , but doesn't knock my socks off either.

I picked "Fly From Here", not quite a masterpiece, but still pleasant and genuine Yes album. Followed by Glass Hammer (very strong but somewhat longWink) and Squackett (rather controversial album, but with some excellent moments).

Sure, he has a vocal much more similar to Anderson, in addition he's also Jon.Wink  Looking forward to his eventual recordings with Yes!

I picked GH because the inclusion made me laugh.

Hardly qualifies  a  GH album in  this poll.  This album  was out before he  joined Yes. Or am I in error?

Well, but if I would omit Glass Hammer accidentally, be sure that someone would have pointed out on it.Head on wall

Never mind. Davison is a current Yes member and that's it! It qualifies him to this poll as well as former Yes members.

Possibly.
I just think that it's funny because people label GH as a Yes clone, so seeing them in a Yes-related poll was funny.

I don't know I would classify GH as a Yes clone; Yes are very diverse, dynamic and 3D and therefore impossible to clone, unless you clone a snapshot of one of their "personas".  I can count at least 4 phases of Yes history that are unlike each other, or anything else. As for GH, they are more like a dedicated Tolkien tribute band :)

Only heard Fly from Here and Living Tree from this. I liked better Fly from Here, and for me it has got some new songs that will make it to my regular listening from the band... not bad at all, even if they are not so proggy, and if the whole albums isn't a masterpiece... they haven't achieved that since CttE anyway (in my opinion), even if they have come up with many unmissable songs since then. The Living Tree was OK, but very subdued. There are a pair of songs that I can imagine having been really great if they had been played, arraged, and augmented by the whole of Yes.

Fly from here.

I love Survival and Cor Cordium, too.


One of my best achievements in life was to find this picture :D
