There's some cheating going on here. Didn't know you can use decimal points.

The yes album 8.5/10
Fragile 8/10
Close to the edge 7.5/10
Relayer 7/10
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

I consider the run of six albums including The Yes Album, Fragile, CTTE, TFTO, Relayer, and GFTO to be an unparalleled achievement-each a 5.0 in my book.

CTTE 9.5. more of a 9 because AYAI doesn’t really hold my attention all the way thru, but worth an extra half point for being such a huge statement and for the other 2 tracks being flawless and awesome (maybe my 2 favorite Yes songs)

TYA 9 the one classic rock fans can most enjoy. Good rockin’ fun and being there first for a bold new ensemble sound they’d build on

Relayer 8. Side one is one of the best things they ever did; side 2 is very good but not great

Fragile 8. Never really got the point of the solo tracks (though they’re definitely good on their own), they just seem not to fit with the (awesome) long tracks. It’s a cohesion thing. Nothng really wrong with any of them.

Time and a word 8/10
The yes album 8.5/10
Fragile 8/10
Close to the edge 7.5/10
Tales of topographic oceans 7/10
Relayer 7/10
Going for the one 6.5/10
Tormato 8/10
Drama 7.5/10

I did an extended list
Pretty much a gradual drop off after 1970
Tormato was a return to the fun Yes even with the funny synth sound
