What Yes album would a hardcore fan recommend to start with?

Pink Floyd are my very favorite band, and a Yes concert I inadvertently saw part of on TV the other day kind of reminded me of the Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon-Wish You Were Here era. The song they played was called "In the Presence Of" (I Googled the lyrics); I thought their playing and singing were just alright, but it was the rich, trippy Floydian nuances of their sound that grabbed me. I later listened to a little of "Close to the Edge," the one album that everyone apparently says is their best, and I didn't really like it but I would be willing to give it another chance if it's really as worthwhile a record as it's supposed to be. SO, my question is, could any Yes fans recommend an album (other than "Close to the Edge," or that stupid one with Trevor Horn that had "Owner of a Lonely Heart" on it - I hate that song) that someone with a background in Pink Floyd would find the most accessible? Keep in mind that I'm not quite asking "Name the Yes album that you would most closely compare to Dark Side of the Moon or Wish You Were Here," only whichever one you think someone who likes Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here might also like for whatever reasons.
