Close to the Edge, by Yes (1972): Hard to say anything about this prog classic that isn't said in the linked Ground and Sky reviews. I'm not certain it's my favorite Yes album, and I think the live version of the title track on Yessongs is better. But there's no denying that this was a band at the top of its power and marked the end of the band's first era (drummer Bill Bruford left for King Crimson afterwards and the band plateaued, at the very least, for the next several years).
