Yes "Fragile" How great of an album is it?

In my opinion it is one of the great all time rock albums and in the same class as DSOTM and Sargent Pepper's. It is as about as perfect of a collective composition as an album can come. It cut new ground in sound and was a high water mark for the band. And, now that the new analog transfer to vinyl is out, one heck of a great sounding album.

What's your opinion. Should it be in the top 10 rock albums of all time?

Have most of their stuff and have seen them quite a few times and in different formats.  The Yes Album, Close to the Edge and Fragile should all be in any progressive rock fan's collection.  My personal favorites are Relayer, Tales from Topographic Oceans and 90125, with 90125 being the sound quality winner IMO.  Fans should also check out the BD video of their Montreaux gig from 2003 if they haven't already.

Fragile is a top 25 for me; too much competition in the top 10.  But that's just my thinking today, of course;-).  Happy listening!
