This was surprisingly easy, compared to computing it for some other bands!

The lack of love for Tormato is sad and baffling.
It's a good album...it's also the first LP I ever bought lol.

Yes, they're all good albums! YES have never made a bad album in my opinion, and as I've mentioned before, I'd choose any YES album over any Marillion album. Smile

no need to insult me

I guess you are a very easy to please listener, or so it seems at least.
