Power Windows feels more complete to me. There are some great tracks on 90125 though.

90125 remains my favorite rock album of all time.

Power Windows is among my top 5 favorite Rush albums, but having songs like "Middletown Dreams" and "Emotion Detector" makes it a very easy victory for Yes!

No, but 90210 is in Beverly Hills.  

Yes, I know that. I thought that it was also a nickname for this album because of the similarity. I guess I'm the only one who knows about that joke. Confused
I am well aware of that joke...and have definitely said it many a time as in "90210 or whatever that album is called".  I googled the zip code 90125 and it says that it doesn't exist, but if it did it would be located in L.A.  

you probably know this but 90125 was the albums catalogue number---had nothing to do with zip codes--but I used it as a password a lot on devices---oops now you all know how to get into my iPhone Dead
Yep.  As a matter of fact I was trying to look up the album with catalogue number 90210 to complete the joke, but didn't have any luck finding that.  LOL  I was hoping it would be a Bangles album or something like that. 

Ha. Funny how that didn't work out. Anyway, yes it was their catalogue number. Kind of a lazy way of coming up with an album title if you ask me. Trevor Rabin actually released an album of early demos called 90124 as a joke(speaking of jokes)but I never actually heard the whole thing. Some of it sounded pretty good though. 

The Bangles. Tongue I can actually give you a Yes connection there. Susanna Hoffs who was with the Bangles did a cover album with Matthew Sweet and one of those  covers was of "I've seen all good people." It was on their second cover album. They did three.

I saw the tours for both these albums.  At the time, 90125 reinvigorated Yes and I saw a great performance by the band at Birmingham's NEC.  At the same venue sometime later, I saw Rush for the first time on that Power Windows tour.  It was one of the most turgid concerts I have ever been to, along with Dire Straits.

I love Yes and I'm a HUUGE Trevor Horn fan, but the songs on Power Windows are just BETTER than 90125.  I cant really explain it.  And I've never compared these two in any context.  But I would definitely go with Power Windows here.  I just listen to it more and it stands the test of time better.
listen to streaming stuff! no commercials!

^All I can think about now is how my high school theater teacher had a small recurring role on that show long before she was a teacher. She was also a terrible director and played favorites in the worst way. A little glad she was fired, but sad it was after I graduated.
