I'm on the same page as everyone else...the Yes album, Fragile, Close to the Edge are terrific, hugely inventive albums - Relayer has its golden moments ('soon' is possibly the loveliest thing they've done, and atypical of the rest of the album): it's the LP that separates the hard-core Yesmen from the rest of us. 'Tales from Topographic Oceans' is fascinating in its sprawling ambition, but for me it's the moment they drank their own kool-aid and made an album of their reviews. Recommended for Roger Dean completists only - it is truly the Sistine Chapel of 70s rock art.

My two cents for last great Yes album is 'Going for the One': Turn of the Century, Wondrous Stories, a nice return to form with a classic hipgnosis cover that objectifies the male for a change!
