As good as Trespass is, The Yes Album is better. A quintessential moment in time for one young prog fan - way back then. Fantastic. Trespass is merely Great.

hmmm....


not sure who is making these polls but I think if a little more thought was put into them, they'd be more interesting.  How about comparing albums of the same vein, such as Trespass and Time and a Word. Where both bands were making baby steps into the world of prog.  The Yes Album is a minor Prog classic,  Trespass is a decent 'first' album and obviously loved by Genesis fans.

This poll should be locked right now. Multiple votes are unexpectable, because it greatly distorts the data....

But I have to say Trespass is quite a weak album. No matter how much I like Peter Gabriel's voice, this album is a true shame. There is awful production, sup-bar creativity and just plain mediocre songwriting.

On the other hand, the Yes album are filled with Yes classics and almost every single song is at least "acceptable". Even with the mediocre production, its still miles ahead of Trespass.
