It’s a rare instance of a 10/10 song being sandwiched between two 11/10 songs.

It's my favorite on the album and a perfect example of what prog rock should be

Because that entire album is aural rohypnol.

Yep the center part is one of the most beautiful thing I've ever heard

This. I used to pick it as my favorite for the bright happy section halfway through. Now I just find Siberian Khatru to be one of the most irresistable grooves in prog, and Close to the Edges beginning through Total Mass Retain is my favorite prog outside King Crimson and Gentle Giant.

>Tfw got this album on vinyl but have no record player to play it on
What record player would you guys reccomend for a poorfag?

I don't know.
I just buy cds and play them on a bluray player hooked up to some stereo speakers.

Best album of all time, prove me wrong

A used Technics SL series table off ebay. Best value you're gonna get

one good song on the album and its not that one

I always mention it, just that the title track is so titanic it overshadows it. Both 10/10 tracks.

I used to listen to this song on repeat when I first got into Yes' via my parents tapes. Second half sounds like the soundtrack to the creation of the world

Pleb

Cause it is known that Yas Forums loves the entire album, not only the title track

To me, it's the peak of the record, and I mean that in a good way. The 'coming quickly to terms of all expression laid...' bit is just nuts, one of the most beautiful things on any album ever.

And You And I > CTTE >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sibeiran Khatru

Are Close to the Edge and Fragile so flawless that their other albums sound worse or are they just not that great?

the yes album also has its transcendent godly peaks but and you and i is the best thing they ever did together. as soon as the song comes to "COMING QUICKLY TO TERMS OF ALL EXPRESSION LAID" i immediately just want to leave my body and drift with the dryads and wood-nymphs of the forest. a completely life-changing experience, especially in high school.

I don't actually enjoy Fragile that much for some reason, it's nowhere near CTTE for me. The Yes Album and Relayer are better.

CTTE >>> And You And I >> Siberian Khatru

Finally, a man of taste

this, also TFTO and Going for the One are good albums. Yes had an amazing run from CTTE to GFTO, but nothing can top Relayer

i remember crying to the ballad on Relayer (forget its name right now) because my girlfriend had just dumped me and that song reminds me so much of dancing together with people at balls and banquets and generally having a good time, and the scent associated with it was the perfume she left on her copy of the fault in our stars that she lent me to read

Damn dude, I've also cried to To Be Over, beautiful song.

Such a good song, based as hell user.

thanks bros, it is. i prefer king crimson nowadays (and have been pillaging their early discography) but nothing beats discovering yes as a freshman in high school. it changed everything for me

Same dude, I remember finding Yes in my last year of HS when I was going through some shit. Just listening to To Be Over and it's brought back residuals of some of the feelings I had back then.

Accurate

climax of And You and I = ending of Close to the Edge >>> Close to the Edge > And You and I >> Siberian Khatru
ftfy

I'm sorry but the climax of close to the edge is by far the most hype part of the whole album

>I GET UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPP

>I GET DOOOOOOOWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNN

the second movement of the track is absolute fucking bliss

i know, i know, but hear me out on even the hyper fucking part of the album

>COMING QUICKLY TO TERMS OF ALL EXPRESSION LAID
>EMOTION REVEALED AS THE OCEAN MAID

and you and I climb over the sea to the valley

Fair argument. I guess its just the 20 minute build up that adds so much hype to CTTE. That and the keyboard solo

and you and I reached out for reasons to call
