Wow, hard choice!  I had to give the nod to Yes for being there before Rush and helping to get the whole prog movement started.  Otherwise, I may have given the nod to Rush.  I enjoy both bands outputs immensely.

Rush...as always. Until I hear Yes' "classic period", I'm not likely to change my mind.

LOL 

<snicker>  I voted for Rush...not because I don't like Yes; but because I've never heard anything by them, except "Owner Of A Loneyl Heart".  That being all I've heard, I don't think that's a whole hell of a lot to go on.

Rush has been one of my top 5 (if not my favorite) bands since I was 10 years old (I'm now 35). They get the easy vote. Just talented, great songs, sense of humor, although Neil's lyrics sometimes veer toward the verbose. Not that Yes isn't great, but Rush owns. Just check out the Rush In Rio and R30 DVD's to find out why. Still cool after all these years...while Yes feels like a "weren't we great when" band. Like I said, Yes is still good, but Rush hasn't lost a step.

would add for shear 'bestness' hard IMO to top GG, they could (did?) do it all.  anyway, Rush is not even in the same league as Yes.  Only thing Rush did better was spotlight the considerable skills of it's drummer rather than Yes's drummers taking a 'backseat' to the caped,  and booted wonders.

I'll take RUSH Limbaugh over Yes. 

Ooop....Yes by far over Rush.

Why don't you like Yes, Cert?

And it's Rush for me, as well.
