Olias of Sunhillow is definitely not for everyone, it's very new agey and yes it's a bit silly but it's beautifully crafted, there's none of the instrumental flashiness of a Yes record, it's just pure vibes.
Fish Out of Water is closer to sounding like a Yes album, the presence of Bruford and Moraz certainly helps with that, though you've also got other instruments in the mix like flute and sax. The songs are not quite Yes quality but Squire's bass playing is in top form and more than enough reason to give it a listen.

I'm a huge fan of Wakeman's solo stuff from that period, especially Journey to the Center of the Earth. I personally love the over the top bombast of it all, but I definitely get why it would tip the scale into cheese for some.
