It would be too difficult to rank my top three YES albums, but for ME.........

.....if YES albums were women, the one I would marry is Close To The Edge (she's perfect).  If Close To The Edge died and left me to be a widower, I'd get remarried to Drama. Before getting married, I would definitely date pretty much all the other YES albums (some more than others, of course).  The one I would want to be seen with in public would be Relayer. The date which was a load of fun, but my friends questioned/warned me about is Tormato (I almost got engaged to her, though, and to be honest, I still think about her from time to time - sorry, but I just can't stop even though I know she would have been no good for me and probably would have broken my heart and left me for another dude). 

There are a couple YES albums which aren't long-term dating material to me: Union/"Onion" was the first YES album to truly disappoint me, like if your date farted loudly and belched her liverwurst sandwich she had for lunch in your mouth during your first kiss (and you discovered she didn't brush her teeth). Ironically, the YES-West songs were actually better on Onion than the YES-proper songs, but that doesn't save her since she has poor hygiene. The other album which is not long-term dating material is Heaven & Earth (I loved "Believe Again" and "Subway Walls", which means I loved her hair and her shoes, but alas, the rest of her body, mind, and personality put me to sleep (and not in a good way).  

Additionally and lastly, Open Your Eyes was actually a fun date. It's just that we weren't the same religion.

No problem. 

It may seem so, but I can tell that The Album and CttE are my Yes fond-ofs while I find Fragile overrated. 

CTTE

Relayer

Guess it's just the Wakeman cover that isn't very stimulating.

Close To The Edge

Fragile

I agree.

For my tastes, Relayer is their best album - And their live is wonderful.

1) Relayer

2) CTTE

and for the third place, 

Fragile, 

GFTO

and 

90125... which one?

Yes album is good, very pretty but naive.
