Both are 10/10 but Fragile is my choice.

It's like apples vs oranges... I like both, for different reasons. If I had to choose, my choice would depend on my current mood and frame of mind.  Later, my choice would be different.

As much as I love Fragile, LTIA is better than everything else.

I am a staunch lover of Lark's Tongues.  One of the absolute best pieces of music ever recorded.  And I love Yes, too.

Even though Larks is great indeed, I have to go with Fragile, which along with Close to the Edge make the top of prog for me.

If there would be The Yes Album, I'd vote for it. But in this contest it's Larks...

Thank you for including the both option. Otherwise I might have reluctantly gone with LTIA.

Like almost everyone else, it's a close one for me too.  I went with Larks.  As much as I love Fragile, LTiA leaves a more lasting impression.

Voted Larks. In My personal ranking they are so Close: Fragile 8,5/10. Larks 9-. Fragile contains the marvellous Heart of the Sunrise but the instrumental pieces are weak.

Fragile......but as was said above...there are better KC albums that would trump it for me.

So close for me . I voted for LTIA because it needed some love but I could have gone either way.
