        My top 10 Yes tracks from Keys onward are at the moment:

        Not in any order, just ten I like a lot:

        1) Fly From Here Suite
        2) In The Presence Of
        3) The Man You Always Wanted Me To Be
        4) The Gift Of Love
        5) To Be Alive (Hep Yada)
        6) Give Love Each Day
        7) That That Is
        8) The Messenger
        9) The Western Edge
        10) New Language

        I really hope something from the new album replaces any one of these on my list.

          Sort of a tall order. The last 25 or so years of Yes music. Nine or so albums worth.

          OK, in no particular order . . .

          Cut From the Stars
          Subway Walls
          Mind Drive
          Children of Light
          Nine Voices
          Dreamtime
          Hour of Need (Full-length Version)
          To the Moment
          The Gift of Love
          Mind Drive

                        Okay then, [cracks fingers]

                        That, That Is
                        Fly From Here Suite
                        Homeworld
                        Mind Drive
                        In The Presence Of
                        New Language
                        Subway Walls
                        The African Suite - Lightning Strikes, Can I?, Face To Face
                        The Solution (just the song)
                        New State of Mind

                        + Cut From the Stars somewhere around these
                        Symphony
                        Karmachromatic
                        It's only static
                        The key defines the scale we climb
                        To at last perceive we are
                        We are contrast in harmony​

                          I loved Keys To The Studio, Magnification and Homeworld albums.

                          Fly From Here and From A Page are albums fine too.

                          The other post-Rabin albums gather dust on my CD rack.

                            Are the live recordings of the YfARW tour eligible? They should be.
