I prefer Rush's  70's output to that of Genesis or Yes but only slightly. I much prefer post-70s Rush to Yes or Genesis of that same era. That said, Rush's post Signals output isn't great either.

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.

Genesis '70-'91, Yes '70-'77+'83, Rush '75-'87.
 
Enough reason to vote for the first option.

Genesis and Yes belong to my favorite bands, but I don't like Rush a lot, although Moving Pictures is a cool album.

I'm the Gene/Yes guy. I like Rush but can't listen too much due to the vocals.

Love Genesis and Rush, don't like Yes.

Precisely my feelings. I have the deepest respect for Rush, and I enjoy most of their albums, but nowhere near the same level of Yes or Genesis.

I like all three but for me Rush is the best of the three, then Yes, then Genesis.  I pretty much like everything in the Rush catalog but I cannot say the same for Yes or Genesis.

I really don't dig Rush, but Gabriel era Genesis and the three "classic" Yes albums are some of my favorite stuff in prog.
