Drama deserved to be taken more seriously on release. It has a ton of energy and invention. Still fresh today. After that Yes were on the slide imo.

Drama, with Human Interface a distance second. In a room full of smiling recliners.

Drama gets the nod.

I wanted to vote for Patrick Moraz's Human Interface, because that's my favorite album by him. The last two songs, "Stressless" and "Hyper Waves" are two of his greatest. But Drama is truly the most significant album here. If Summer Had Its Ghosts is really good as well.

Absolutely. The album's reputation, deservedly has become very positive through the years. The writing, playing and production are first rate. Every track is a keeper and Machine Messiah and Tempus Fugit are two of the best pieces of music Yes has done. It is the one album that thankfully, if one has listened to the Paris sessions, Jon Anderson was not a part of. As for Wakeman, like Relayer before, Yes benefited with him jumping ship.

A little vote for Wakeman. 
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution
