power windows, one of my favorite later Rush albums ------------- "The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of serious music is much worse." - Zappa |

Drama. Highly underrated. Power Windows is one of Rush's weakest efforts.  ------------- Master of Images, Songs Cast the Light on You... |

| They're both rather good albums, but I voted for Rush. "Drama" for me is somewhat undermined by Trevor Horn's far from stellar vocals. |

Power Windows. It's also one of Rush's best album. Drama is a good album, though. |

both are better albums than what most people think..... drama would be better if Horn wasn't always trying to sound like Anderson.... and if the second track wouldn't be so saga-like, the fourth so police like, the bad "camera" chorus in otherwise good Into the lens and the GeddyLee-bassline tempus fugit.
Both good albums, not great |

Rush is definately one of my Top 3 favorite bands, but I honestly think Drama is stronger. I love Power Windows, but Machine Messiah and Tempus Fugit make me think Drama is better. ------------- Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me.

Drama is definitely more enjoyable album for me. Not great but I can listen to it and enjoy it, as opposed to Power Windows... ------------- carefulwiththataxe |

I bought Drama a couple of months ago, having read lots about it on here. I find it good, but not exceptional. Vocally it is quite weak in parts, and Tempus Fugit is nowhere near as good as I expected it to be.
Power Windows became, when it was released, for a while, my favourite Rush album. It has dropped down the pecking order somewhat these days, but I still enjoy it. Therefore, it gets my vote.

Is it that time already? The once a month, somehow, someone feels the need to bash Drama? Originality still has its novelty in today's world. At least in mine. Please try it.

| There is no " DRAMA" involved when I cast my vote for DRAMA. It's simply a more interesting album than POWER WINDOWS. |

Never thought much of "Power Windows," but I do Like "Drama" quite a bit.

Power Windows, my favorite 80's Rush album after Moving Pictures. Drama is good, but PW I enjoy a lot more. ------------- "One likes to believe in the freedom of Music" - Neil Peart, The Spirit of Radio |

Drama, while not without its flaws, is still a great deal more interesting than Power Windows to me ------------- A dog is for lunch and not just for breakfast |

Drama, but PW is good... How did you decide that these 2 albums should be compared (out of curiosity)? |
