I get you like what you like but at certain point it shows a lack of basic understanding. I'm also voting Moving Pictures. Not because I have anything against Radiohead. In fact, I love them. It's just that Moving Pictures is an incredible masterpiece. Song for song brilliant start to finish. I'm sick of Rush being relegated to a guilty pleasure kind of band. They're awesome. Period.

I definitely agree on the similar production and shine bit, they're both incredibly well produced records, even if I think OK Computer is just okay. I just see them as two drastically different albums and haven't heard the comparison before. Maybe it is a lack of understanding from only listening to OK Computer tennish times, can you elaborate on the similarities?
Also your friend probably doesn't like Floyd because he went into it expecting a Yes or Kansas style prog band. While I do love them, I don't really think of them as prog tbh.
