Holy Crap, 50/50. That's an extremely tough choice for me. But I think I'd have to go with CttE

Now if it had been "Gates" then maybe I would have been more hard pressed - Suppers Ready for me though.

Close to the Edge, by a hair.

I can't bear to vote and break the tie. I would vote for Supper's Ready if I did, though (not that anyone cares).

CTTE for me, some of SR just annoys me........

50/50 for me, but since Supper’s down two votes at the moment (66-64) I will vote for it.

I think the live version of "Supper's Ready" (on the "Seconds out" album) is outstanding but I think I prefer "Close to the Edge" in general terms

I'm not in love with either, but I can dig Close to the Edge without much thought - so hay!

I'll save Close to the Edge from the inferno. As for Supper's Ready, I'll just issue an Ember Alert...

I find that I like the segues between the different parts of CTTE, so I guess I'd say the Yes number "flows" from section to section better. But then Supper's Ready has some unbelievably powerful stuff in it that I just never tire from, when "Guaranteed Eternal Sanctuary Man" kicks in it gives me shivers every time. But then again so does CTTE.
Therefore I choose NOT to vote!! Too hard!
