Out of these three solo records of the members of Yes that I like the most, which one is your favourite?

Chris Squire – Fish Out of Water (1975)
Rick Wakeman – No Earthly Connection (1976)
Jon Anderson – Olias of Sunhillow (1976)

Squire gets my vote. My leaf size and my rooting mass increase when I eat wagon wheels.

Ouch! Tough poll. 
All are really good.
Went with Squire on this one.
Welcome to the middle of the film.

All great albums, but No Earthly Connection gets the most play from me these days...

Olias of Sunhillow, one of my top albums of all time. Fish Out of Water, which is also a great album, comes in second.

Chris Squire by default. It's an okay album but not that interesting. Wakey made the best solo albums for me but I much prefer Six Wives, King Arthur and Criminal Record over No Earthly Connection. In fact I would take the Airs Trilogy and both Retro albums over it as well.

Chris Squire. Olias is also a nice album. Of Rick Wakeman's album I know only the title.

Three great albums. I could vote any of the three.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

My favourite Yes solo album must be from Rick Wakeman, but not No Earthly Connection. That one just didn't click with me, except for the live version from Out of the Blue.
