Drama. Although I do like the newer stuff like Keys and The Ladder.

Magnification was a great album in my opinion so it gets my vote.  I think that Fly From Here is very good, but not great.

Really, too many "eras" to choose from. What sounds awesome depends on my mood. I simply can't pick one for this poll.

Welcome to the middle of the film.

So much good music :-) as you say. I like FFH a lot, well put together album, must thank Trevor Horn for that

As a classic answer, I could say that the great last album of Yes in his crescent slope, was Going for the one. An excellent album. But after that they have great album too, but not in the classic format of the seventies. 90125, Talk, The Ladder are great albums too.

Tormato looked lonely, and it was a very good effort, so it got my vote.  For some reason, I cannot tolerate FFH at all.

GFTO - which is a great album from start to finish - including the dynamic title track, which many don't seem to like. But surprised Drama is considered a great album. Apart from the superb opening track, it seems just decent to me.
