I wanted to respond to this sooner. But I felt it was only necessary to wait about as long as a rick wakeman keyboard solo. Wicked album. My personal favourite of theirs was fragile, I really loved roundabout. Something about it (mighta been the baseline) just had a really cool funky sound to it.
Fragile is an excellent album as well. I particularly like South Side of the Sky and Heart of the Sunrise.
Yes has released a lot of great albums over the decades, but most of their newer albums get little attention. For instance, Fly from Here was released in 2011 and is very good. I listen to it when I start a road trip. There's a certain point in the song that hits me every time:
Turn yourself around Turn your life around Turn your world around Turn this ship around So turn the wheel around
Imagine hearing that after ~10 minutes into a road trip.

Haha! I didn't know they were still releasing music as recently as this century 🤣 lyrics like that on a road trip, doubt you'd get very far if you took their advice. End up back home really fast and the road trip would be very short 🤣
