Going for the One. Of their later work, as far as I know it, I like 90125 best.

If pushed I'd say Drama but 90125 will do in a pinch

I enjoy 90125 but DRAMA is my obvious choice! Such a terrific one of a kind album! Now 8 - 8 with Going For The One.

For me Drama was the last really good one, but the last great one was Relayer. |

You'd probably enjoy Relayer and Going for the One a lot more, if the highly regarded 'Close to the Edge' was never made, but I guess ratings can be relative. |

I'd say Going for the One was their last great album.
But I'd also list Drama, 90125, Talk, The Ladder, Magnification, and Fly from Here as good albums. Oh and ABWH. |

GFTO is the last truly great one, but I still like most of the albums that came after it quite a bit.

Drama here. But with the exception of Open Your Eyes, they're all very listenable.

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.

If you were to plot a graph, I think the downward slide would really start after GFTO, but there is still enough good music there - Drama, bits of Tormato, even Fly From Here is pretty good.

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

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.

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