Relayer

Yes
Released 1974Rock
ClassicPicked by a lifelong record collector

A complex, jazzy prog peak. Ambitious and acclaimed. A high point. Released in 1974, it's a key entry in Yes's run.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
