I put this one off forever, because it's a biggie, and there are some contentious albums. Sorry if I've missed out or included something.

Talk, which I voted for, and Tormato, are both underrated in my book.

For me it's a toss up between time and a word, big generator, talk and the ladder. I'll have to think about it.

I did a similar poll a while back I think. For me personally I wouldn't include anything from the yes album to relayer but that's just me. I think I did include topographic figuring some folks would vote for it and sure enough they did.

The Ladder. Tormato is certainly a lot better than the music press gave it credit for.

Voted Magnification, but what was really awesome was the tour it resulted in with the symphony orchestra.

Lots of possible choices, I chose GFTO since I think it is under-appreciated for incredible additions to their history.  Not a weak song on it, IMHO, unlike many of their discs.

Tormato is winning. It's certainly underrated but I don't know if it is more so than some of the others(especially some of the later ones).

I think quite the contrary - it's overrated, I've never understood why so many love it. 
I bought it, no regrets, the first and the last song deserve the money alone. Still overrated. Big smile

I didn't vote for it, but 'Big Generator' would come in second for me.

Agreed. I never see anyone mention this one but I think it's a strong start of their career.
