Cyclonus X-1 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Close to the EdgeFragileThe Yes AlbumRelayer Fragile and The Yes Album aren't separated by much. Relayer is a distant fourth despite being great. (Going for the One would round out my own Yes top four.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 1. Close To The Edge2. The Yes Album3. Fragile4. Relayer I'm not that big a fan of Relayer like many other Yes fans are I feel like Relayer is very...ephemeral. It's like when I turn it on I recognize there's Yes playing and it sounds really cool and pretty, but it doesn't grab me the same way their other records do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like when I turn it on I recognize there's Yes playing and it sounds really cool and pretty, but it doesn't grab me the same way their other records do. I put it on and think it sounds really f***ing up its own arse and when it finally gets to the Soon section, I remember there's a single edit of that song, and I could have just saved myself a shitty album length period of boredom and played that instead. Weirdly though I love Tales. Just not a fan of Relayer. Really not keen on the keyboards either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the rest of the album is beautiful, but I tend to play this one a song at a time, never really in one sitting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the rest of the album is beautiful, but I tend to play this one a song at a time, never really in one sitting. That's probably the best thing to do with it honestly. I think most prog fans just can't handle that much all in one sitting so they give up on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I find it interesting that in many corners of the prog rock community Relayer is heralded as equal to if not better than Close To The Edge (and whichever your favorite is), but here nobody seems able to rank it above these other three.

I think massive prog fans (which I'm not) really take too it's more unusual sound. Relayer is in all honesty an exceptional album that I've listened too many times, but I admire it's beauty more than I enjoy it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
