Love all three, although I do get confused when critics described Snakes & Ladders as Rushs' best output for two decades. I thought it was average, at best.

in Two decades you would have Roll the Bones, Counterparts, Test for Echo, Vapor Trails, and Snakes and Arrows. What order would you put them in? I would rate them:
Counterparts Snakes and Arrows Roll the Bones Test for Echo Vapor Trails

A big fan of Genesis. I like many of Yes stuff but not all. Rush has some good things but as an overall is a bit humdrum and repetitive. So I`ll go with option 2.

Rush and Yes are up near my favourite bands, Genesis however is not.
I know, I know, blasphemy right?

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Genesis, can't get enough of them! I do not hate Rush or Yes, I really enjoy several songs by both bands, but I have never bought any of their cds. Over the years I have tried to get into Yes by borrowing tapes and cds, and listening to songs on the internet, however they really are not for me. Of the two I would have to say that I prefer Rush.

I like them all, particularly in the order of the first question.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I like all three very much, Rush is my fave of the three. To me they never dissapointed and never stopped progressing.

I love Rush. I really like Genesis. I like Yes somewhat less than Genesis, but that's still a lot.

All three, but kind of a pointless poll if you ask me. Fan of one of two bands or one band. Letmethinkoftheodds.

I like all three, but there are portions of their careers I do not care for:
Genesis-everything after Duke-weak Yes-Most of the Trevor Rabin period and Union-yuk. Rush-much of the period between Moving Pictures and Vapor Trails-very uneven

Rush is pretty damn great. I haven't listened to that much genesis or yes, the only album I've listened to by them straight through is Close to the edge. And from that album I really only like Siberian Khatru
