Steve Hackett < Steve Howe

Phil Collins < Bill Bruford

Peter Gabriel >>>>>>>>> Jon Anderson ( was that to exaggerated?)

Peter brings much more emotin and meaning than Jon. Just think if Peter did " I get up I get down"

Mike Rutherford < Chris Squire

Tony Banks < Rick Wakeman

Yes has a great lineup ... if only they would bump out Jon... you can only stand to listen to him for a little bit.

you can vote on the only albums you know, it doesn't have to be all (I doubt most people here own an album like Big Generator )

I consider White the quintessential Yes drummer, but I'd personally consider Bruford as the defining drummer, the same way most people would consider that wacky Wetton as the defining vocalist for Crimson even though Belew's been there much longer.

Either way, I haven't paid enough attention to Genesis' post-Lamb works to vote fairly, so I'll abstain from voting to keep it even.

I cannot choose. Bruford is the better drummer, but he has not been in Yes long enough. I consider Bruford the drummer of King Crimson instead.

You can choose either bruford or white in the little game.

Of course, the two bands for many are very similar in musical quality and style, so it is a good idea to compare which is best in specific areas :

Members

Steve Hackett vs Steve Howe

Phil Collins vs Alan White

Edit : Phil Collins vs Bill Bruford  (if you wish)

Mike Rutherford vs Chris Squire

Peter Gabriel vs Jon Anderson

Tony Banks vs Rick Wakeman

 

Albums

 

From Genesis to REvelations vs Yes

Tresspass  vs  Time and a Word

Nursery Crime vs The Yes Album

Foxtrot vs Fragile

Selling England By the Pound vs Close To The Edge

Genesis Live vs Yessongs

Lamb Lies Down on Broadway vs Tales of topographic oceans

Trick of the tail vs Relayer

Wind and Wuthering vs Going for the one

And then there were three vs Tormato

Duke vs Drama

Genesis vs 90125

Acabab vs Big Generator

...

Genesis vs Yes

 = if you can't decide

 > < greater, worse than

>>  <<  much better , worse than
