This looks set to be another three-way Relayer race again, just like the sixth album poll, although I'm holding onto a Lifeline of hope that Novella will win this poll, in which case I'll celebrate with Rhapsodies of delight, for as long as The Spell remains unbroken. Smile

one band replaced a legendary singer and one band replaced a legendary keyboardist and both came up with extraordinary albums---a major achievement not many other bands could ever pull off.

Novella, this time.

But for how long can Renaissance hold on to that lead, when the Turn of the Cards may see Genesis or Yes take the lead again. Smile

Relayer, it has to be Relayer. No question. Novella would come second, and The Spell from the Enid, third. Wakeman's Rhapsodies may get silly, but there is some good music there.

I will give some love to Camel on this one, partly because Renaissance gets my vote for the next one no matter who the competition is, and partly because I think "I can see your house" is underrated

Not an easy pick, but I selected Relayer!  Good poll, there was a lot of great music back then!

Whoa, whoa whoa! I don't vote for Grave New World and you want to disown me. But now you skate over Renaissance in two polls like they have the plague. LOL

in the spirit of the shell of the pending holiday that awaits, I will not speak ill of you or Renaissance.  But to pass over "Grave New World"...preposterous! Big smile

Just for that I'm not voting for ASFAS in the next poll and changing my PA rating of the album to one star. So there.

Relayer. The Gates alone make this my favourite album of all times... but I like the two other pieces too.

This is tough.
I played Novella last week for the first time in years and I'd forgotten just how incredibly good it is.
Trick of the Tail is also a great album, spoiled a bit by Robbery Assault and Battery.
But Relayer is (probably) the best album by Yes (The Yes Album runs it close) so gets my vote

And both are easily the best here, but Genesis wins out.
