My fave Yes albums: 1) Relayer 2) Close to the Edge 3) 90125 (Find what is embarrassing)

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

^ Agreed. I like 90125, even "Owner of a Lonely Heart".

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

That's not embarrassing at all. Close to the Edge isn't even close to being in my Top 3, and your Top 3 would only be embarrassing if it included Open Your Eyes.

I once listened to "Mystery Tour" by Yes all the way through.

OK Gents, this is one I've missed..  I haven't heard The Quest yet and haven't really garnered much of an appetite for exploration, but you've piqued my interest. I note that it's on the 13 minute long second disk, even though disk 1 is only 47 mins long?
 Is it so bad it's only on the Special Edn?? |

I wouldn't bother, just go listen to a Yes album you enjoy instead.

Very much a neo fan and early classic prog.
For me everything after Tales from Top Oceans, Red, Trilogy, and DSOTM is a wasteland until the first Twelfth Night, IQ, and Marilion albums. The only exceptions are Genesis, as I only listen to the Collins albums, and Jethro Tull and Camel whose entire catalogues are great. |

A"Big Generator" and "ABWH" are not my top three Yes albums.....But, they are top 10. I adore Big Generator. Every song. Ear truffles.

I adore Yes "Oignon", Genesis "And then they were finished". Don't like some of the old King Crimson material, but have a blast with Thrak and Discipline. Can't get into Jethro Tull and Magma.. but for the rest I am on the "normal" side from the majority of the community.

If you say "Genesis "And then they were finished", I will only assume you have not listened to their work from Abacab to WCD which it's much worse IMO. Yes's Union is an uneven album, it's got a few good songs, but overall a bit of a chore to listen to.

I have listened to all Genesis album and since the album And Then... they begin to go on a decline route but big fan of the band I still enjoy those last albums including some songs from Duke, Abacab and even the long epics on they Way we we walk

oh, ok then. I agree the long ones from WCD are really good. Pop era Genesis has a few good songs, but a few terrible songs on each album from Abacab to WCD make me use the skip button quite a bit these days.

I usually don't skip songs when I am listening in surround which make something bad a little better.
