+1 for the best (IMO) piece Yes has ever recorded.

The guitar sound is so extraordinary---and an example of the artistry of a one of a kind guitarist---name another guitarist who could go from the sound in the beginning of CTTE to a few years later the evil, funky sound of Gates. The guy is a creative genius.

i would have liked to go Supper's Ready on this one, but it all comes down to the issue of rediscovery as time goes by. That is to say Gates' offers fans a unique listening challenge (interpretation of elements) on each new play. Although Supper's Ready ranks high among Genesis offerings in the band's level of musicianship and Gabriel's performance on it, Gates' edges it out by means of complexity and theme.

The
instrumental is very nice but there are too much vocals for my taste.
When I think about listening to Relayer I look at all the lyrics in the
gatefold and then I pick something else LOL

Oh, yeah, that is precisely what I'm thinking when Mr. Anderson is singing perhaps the most beautiful prog ballad ever, Soon. Someone call a cop!

Supper's Ready, although GoD is my favourite Yes track. Almost everything by Genesis beats anything from Yes for me though.
