^^ What are you talking about, he's talking about reviews and ratings here. On PA, those other bands overall have better ratings and reviews than KC and he's twisting things around. That I don't get. Stop hounding me, Andrey. First, one thread than another. Just stop it, already.

^ "He started all this" is something people take to kindergarten. This forum is not a kindergarten. Also, I have an opinion too, and here it is: don't make inaccurate inferences from what other people say. You are only insulting their intelligence.

Andrey, stop hounding me out here. Geesh, I know nothing of Ian's logic. Get over it we all have our opinions on certain bands and albums. I just thought it was ludicrous that he brought in some of the albums that he mentioned. He started all of this

Feisty, Nogbad. Who cares about what others have to say. So by your logic Rush and or Genesis is better than KC. Since they get better reviews and higher ratings? You cannot create a double standard there. You get me. I love how you took the time to bring in a chart Wink .P.S.Rush's albums have a higher rating and are better reviewed than KC's Shocked. We all know Rush is better by your logicWink

Horizons, It may be a chore for you but to me it blows all the albums that Nogbad mentioned even the better ones like Larks' Tongues out of the water, but hell that's my opinion

So, it's an impossible sorting problem.

I don't see why that's funny. Tales beats anything KC ever did
Only in your opinion, I'd rank LTiA, Red, ITCOTCK, Lizard, Islands, Discipline & TPTB all ahead of Tales.

Genesis: The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway
In the case of Yes:Close To The Edge can match that overrated and overhyped album known as "In The Court"

As for the Awaken question, I'm pretty sure if you made a poll of Starless vs Awaken, Starless would win by a wide margin (though I'm not sure which would I vote for myself... I guess Awaken). As for the "In the Court" question, I'm pretty sure if you made a poll comparing it to the "Close to the Edge" album , CttE would win by a significan margin. I guess I would vote for it.
