I like 90125 but Power Windows is actually one of my favorite Rush albums so it gets my vote.

I don't listen to either from start to finish anymore---but Power Windows has a few songs I still really like--90125 is very dated sounding .

Power Windows is a really good album, and I think it's very sonically pleasing as well. I always have thought of the addition of more prominent keys and electric drums as a progression for rush rather than regression or "sell-out." I can say many of the same things for 90125, great album especially from a production standpoint and many parts of it still feel progressive to me. I gotta vote Power Windows, some really transcending songs on that album.

Noe is one of my favorites, but I certainly listen to Rush more than Yes, out of these two albums.

RRRUUUSSHHH over Yes.
Power Windows spends more time on the turntable than 90125.

I enjoy both equally these days.
Back in the day I guess I would have voted for Yes. 90125 was immediate for me, and I heard it before I'd heard anything else by Yes. Power Windows was a disappointment at the time, as I was hooked on the MP era of Rush, but these days I think PW is a fine album. I consider neither as 'sell out' albums. In fact 90125 would be in my top 5 Yes albums. |

90125 because I enjoy it more! I've tried hard with Power Windows but it does nothing for me. And I seem to prefer this era of Yes more than the "classic" era!

Loving Yes with all my heart, but I can't stand them in 80s pop format, it's awful to me, sorry. Rush 'Power windows' is prog enough for me to enjoy.

I choose the easy way out this time and voted both.
otherwise a tough choice poll if you had the two albums against each other. Also i don't find these two albums polarizing or controversial...

Two polarizing albums by two of the most important progressive bands that both went on their commercially-friendly ways in the 80s. Which of these two records do you consider better and why? I will go for Yes' mature power pop hit album!   |
