The Ancient is the only really good one here.

I've retired from this question. It's all one long adventure that I adore and their fully-realized moment of glory.

TFTO, my least favorite of just about all Yes releases.  For me it just seemed to lack the focus of the earlier albums.

  Although I think which all tracks are almost equivalent, my vote goes to The Remembering - High The Memory !!!

An album that I liked from the very beginning, and got better over time, though not my favorite Yes album. The Ancient-Giants Under the Sun gets my vote.

Revealing Science of God! Love that opening chant that grows in intensity "Dawn of light lying between the silence and sold sources, chased amid fusions of wonder..." Great stuff!

That opening chant was beautiful when it was still the opening chant. It was ruined in later releases.

I love this entire album equally, so I got to give the love to the track with the least amount of love - "Ritual".

The Revealing Science of God. I used to listen to this one on the way to band practice in Rochester (a good 55 min ride). Needless to say, this album had many spins on those trips!

One thing I've realized is that my "fave" has changed over three-plus decades of listening. At one time or another, all four of these songs have been my fave.

While I probably prefer the version on yesshows more I voted for "ritual."

The quality is very consistent, although not quite as good as CTTE. I chose Nous Sommes Du Soleil, but it could have been any of them.

All of them are ridiculously insane and I love them all equally. Here’s the Yes album I’m fascinated with for ever. I love every note and wouldn’t change a thing. One of the very best albums I listen to. If I had to - The Ancient, it comes from a different dimension.

Science of God, I guess.

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.

Thanks, Finn - every connoisseur of Prog should be in awe of this remarkable work of art.

Not an album I listen to much at all. Has some good moments but bring back the old Yes please Cool

-------------
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

I’ve listened to this meisterwerk countless times over the last 30 + years and it never outstays its welcome. Can’t say that about CTTE, or even Dark Side (which are both superb albums, no doubt).

Revealing Science of God.

It's up there with CTTE and Awaken IMO.

A sadly misunderstood album to many. Went with TRSoG.

Funny thing is, TFTO clicked with me instantly, on first listen. It was just more Yes music, and I had a huge appetite for it! It wasn't until years later that I realized online it had such a hit/miss cult stance.
