All three are masterpieces. Very difficult choice but Foxtrot has "Supper's Ready" and the other two don't.

It's a toss up between Foxtrot and The Yes Album. I'll give the latter some love as it looks like it needs it more. I don't think I've made it all the way through Brain Salad Surgery yet  Something I need to rectify surely. |

No idea, but I like it a lot better than that inane 'cha...cha...cha' bit on Relayer.

^ You gotta repeat something (a catchy line, an element of pop) for several modulations (an element of prog).

I provided an explanation on the previous page, but I guess no one read it.

Just a paralegal? That was a wonderful explanation of the now-famous line. I myself think it was Squire's way of saying the band was tickled that "good" people were noticing the band's increasing success and were accepting it. But what do I know - I'm just an aging twit!

Hmm, I always thought it was that even good people turn their heads away from the awful things that happen in the world and move on their way, satisfied with their own lives but unwilling to help others. I guess I should revise that to "what do I know, I'm just a pessimistic paralegal." I like your explanation better.

Prog has just lost its greatest keyboard, arguably musician. Brain Salad has Karn Evil 9, that alone puts it in top spot.
