Close to the Edge. Wakeman would be a very distant second place, followed by Squackett. Too bad Chris and Steve didn't have a chance to do another album. I watched a planet sneak through my bathroom with a hand full of cookies and cotton balls.

Close to the Edge, the most popular record in this forum, is certainly going to take this poll.

I find myself listening to No Earthly Connection more than any other Wakeman Album. I wish he would have included it in his London Palladium concert.

At least Rick included some of No Earthly Connection in his Live at the Maltings album. Smile

To be honest, CttE or No Earthly Connection, I'm not quite sure

CTTE, I await the 6th one, where I can vote for Tales from Topographic Oceans, and how's its Yes's best work

Nothing else here can match the magnificence of Close to the Edge. The runner up is Squackett, followed by No Earthly Connection as third.
