I am a HUGE fan of 'Mind Drive', Best piece of Yes music in the 90s. Anyone notice that it goes on for almost the EXACT same time as 'Close to the Edge' (18:40) Hmmm, I wonder if that was intentional!

I think that This Strange Engine is a lot better than Interior Lulu (the Positive Light remix of TSE is also really cool).
And I'm not too fond of the studio version of ACOS, the Live Scenes... version is so much better.

Oh man I forgot completely about This Strange Engine. I do think that one is better than Interior Lulu.

I didn't know...but that's interesting indeed. I wonder why so many people are viewing this post but not voting...

Voyage 34 can be boring! 
ACOS cannot!

Tell me you agree that the Live Scenes from New York version is better.

Hey HtR, why didn't you include Spock's Beard's "The Water" in your poll?

If in the options was 'MARILLION - This Strange Engine' I would voted on it. 'Interior Lulu' isn't a great song...
Then I voted on 'Garden of Dreams'

Interesting question... This is an implicit option to this poll... An excellent suite from the nineties...

ARGH! I was just listing stuff off the top of my head, and I
haven't really listened to much Spock's Beard pre-V at this time so it
just didn't occur to me. I'll be sure to give that a listen today.

A Change of Seasons gets my vote as well. One of the best pieces of all time.

This is a 90s poll; all of Transatlantic's music was released in the next decade.

Ok. I know SB's early stuff is largely epic length, but I really have no clue. LOL
