Yes,sorry,third behind The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Embarrassed

Still a monumental achievement,for a Canadian Band,who've never been fashionable!

Will beat them with 2 more albums though! Tongue

AT the moment, I'm lost in B'BOOM by KC, and I love it.....My vote goes to KC (Sorry Reed, as much as I love Rush....they've only done a few intrumentals.)

I went for Rush because of "La Villa Strangiato", my all time favorite instrumental... but i have to mention ELP's "The Barbarian", Genesis' "Los Endos", Camel's "Lunar Sea", King Crimson's "Lark's Tongues in Aspic , parts I to III", Dream Theater's "Erotomania" and "The Dance of Eternity", also Rush's "YYZ" and many MANY more out there...

....are there really 703 people voting for Rush already?

Autenticidad, actitud, pluralidad, espiritu e inteligencia, si es prog bien, si no, tambien.

I voted for Rush (once) with La Villa Strangiato, Where's my thing?, Limbo, YYZ and Leave that Thing Alone, all top ranking instrumentals I found no comparison. Even the less talked about Rush instrumentals I enjoy as much as "Red" or "Erotomania" or "Los Endos" Another good instrumental is ELP's hoedown, my jaw dropped when I first heard a synthetic hoedown

*yawn*

Any of these bands and especially Rush get their behinds handed to them compared to any fusion band.

Why are there always polls with weak prog
