From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.

I don't know most of these.  If I could have split my seven votes between "The Ivory Gate of Dreams" and "Gates of Delirium," I would have.  Since I couldn't, I also voted for Tarkus and Supper's Ready (which I honestly think is a bit overrated).

There's quite a few on here that I am not familiar with, and from the bands I *am* familiar with, you picked some of the not-so-obvious choices (Gates instead of CTTE

"Close to the Edge" is less than 20 minutes long.  Three-quarters of Tales (The Ancient being the outlier) and "Gates" are the "only" 20+ minute songs from Yes's "classic" era.

Ahh, you're right. I just typically associate side-length epics with the 20+ minute epic, as they typically are that long, but with regards to CTTE, you're right on its length. I guess after TFTO, the only true-over-20-minute epic would be the FFH suite, despite the band having released several other epics in the 16-19 minute range.
