zepphead Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Hey! I want all 8!! (well technically I have all eight but you know what I mean!) My vote is for Rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclonus X-1 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Yes, very easily. Even if the Rush group had included Caress of Steel (my favorite Rush album), I'd still take the Yes bunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custom55 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Voted YES. I grew up listening to YES since their early early days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_hi_water._ Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Yes, but was a bit close to choosing Rush tbh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relayer2112 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I enjoy all eight to be sure...I just don't think that the Yes stuff has aged as gracefully as old Rush. Jon Anderson's new age lyrics are probably the culprit for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjbear05 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Yes; because I was listening to them so much at that time. But why would you pick Relayer instead of Tales from Topographic Oceans? Wasn't into Rush until the mid-80's. First real exposure was ESL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78jazz Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) Yes; because I was listening to them so much at that time. But why would you pick Relayer instead of Tales from Topographic Oceans? Wasn't into Rush until the mid-80's. First real exposure was ESL. The Gates of Delirium. That's why.

IbanezJem Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Are Yes one of those bands that I`m really missing out on, by having heard next to nothing from? I mean, I`d have the album covers as pictures on the wall, but always figured - based on nothing - that they wouldn`t be for me. Maybe it`s their name, too positive for me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New World Kid Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Yes is a bit too flowery outside of their big staples for my taste. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chemistry1973 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) I love Yes. And I love everyone of those records. But Rush f***ing rocks - there’s a level of excitement that Yes can’t bring. Edited September 2, 2020 by chemistry1973 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custom55 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) 2:45 into the video I was at this show. Goosebumps. The audience wouldn't let YES finish the song. http://youtu.be/OXLN6nREpzQ Edited September 2, 2020 by custom55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geddyleegenes Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Yes??? f**k, NO! I've heard Yes. I honestly couldn't tell you the name of one Yes song or album title. Oh, and by the way... THIS IS A RUSH FORUM! Everyone here should be voting Rush. Seriously though, if you prefer Yes, that's fine of course. Do your own thing. I myself prefer Rush.
