An acquired taste.Never heard of Rush - just had a listen. Shite.
A bit like Zappa.
My tune would be Cinderella Man.

I can name 2 for now ;)
The best 3 Piece Band ever.
Rory Gallagher says hello.
Although I must admit I preferred him in a 4 piece with Lou Martin on piano.

@stonerblue @FogBlueInSanFran c’mon guys, “Exit stage left“ this bad stuff.Ok, well, prove it then. You haven't said much on the numerous album threads. Post a review. Enlighten us with your wisdom and your understanding of historical musical context. Dazzle us with your knowledge. I'm always happy to read different perspectives.
Notwithstanding the other thread is about "favo(u)rite" bands, not "best" bands, as to your list, apparently you think utterly-and-totally-irrelevant-outside-the-UK, cheap-Pete-Townsend-copycat-except-can't-write-a-hook, nothing-without-his-bandmates Paul Weller deserves to be on it. Well then.
Anyway, the Rush fan club is one I'm happy to have been a part of (admittedly years ago), "Moving Pictures" sold 4 million records more than you or I have, the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame says hello, and, no, I'm not "good" -- I'm a great poster.
Tuearts right boot

Right Mr Parrot now start using your other hand to continue to count the good Yes albums :-)Rush have a bigger catalogue of very good albums IMO with a cross section of styles. Yes have maybe 5 good albums.

To be fair Yes fans would probably count Topographic and Relayer to make it 7 but personally I can't stand them :).Right Mr Parrot now start using your other hand to continue to count the good Yes albums :-)
Recent Yes IMO have been awful and lacking any drive or energy, whereas the last 3 Rush especially Clockwork Angels were all excellent.

For me it’s The Yes Album to GFTO.To be fair Yes fans would probably count Topographic and Relayer to make it 7 but personally I can't stand them :).

90125 was decent as was Talk, Tormato and The Ladder.
The last two albums have been cringeworthy.
My favourite three are GFTO, Fragile and Relayer in that order.
Only my humble opinion though.
I do love Rush too 2112 to Moving Pictures especially.

Ha, Rory was a great guitarist and his gigs were a riot but his sidemen couldn't hold a light to Lee & Peart. Very different rock bands though and both contenders for champions in their divisions.
