As good as The Yes Album is, Close to the Edge is one of 2 albums I can say is perfect.

As far as the pre 90125 albums go that is spot on and I also agree with the exact positions of each choice. BTW you forgot Drama or did you forget it as it has those two from the Buggles on it?

i'd prefer a complete overview, i.e. every album

Fly From Here has those 2 guys from Buggles as well, it's pleasant enough

So do I, so here`s a complete overview of The Buggles:

The Age of Plastic> Adventures in Modern Recording

I probably should have qualified it as a pre-90125 list, and I did legitimately forget about Drama. I would have it a fraction ahead of Tormato.

As for post 90125... I think 90125 is a good album, but it's not my personal taste at all. I did like Keys to Ascension, but it's the only other album I've heard from then. As much as I like Yes, it's hard for me to get beyond their early work.

Have you heard Fifth? It's better than Fourth, IMO.

I think I might have, don't honestly remember.

I`ve never been a huge fan of 90125 either and actually would sooner listen to the follow-up Big Generator. Keys of Ascension is a good live album but Yessongs is the definitive Yes live experience. Apart from Magnification all the rest of the later Yes material is largely a waste of time and not worth the trouble.

Of course I listen to the Buggles in secret, who doesn`t?
