Your reactions are great!
I strongly agree. How can we get our new friend more subscribers and views?
I'm about to recommend his videos to all my musician friends. We get a kick out of watching the younger set discover what INSTRUMENTS are and what could be done with them.
NYCO? Are you a musician, as well? You seem to have a musician's ear.
@@matthewnoto9380 I am not but was with a man who had a masters in music. He introduced me to Gentle Giant, Al Di Meola, etc. Became interested in classic jazz maybe 15 years ago (Coltrane, Getz, etc). Still, my favorite of all time is Led Zeppelin.!
It is fantastic to see a younger generation enjoying itself discovering the music I have loved all my life. Enjoy some more, Son!
And if you liked Yes, you'll probably like Jethro Tull, too.
Once again Chris Squire and Yes the greatest show on! Saw them 36 times. They were better live then vinyl. I'm 63 and still rock out. Chris once said "a great tune is one that swings". No shit!
1. Siberian Khatru
2. America (cover of Simon & Garfunkel tune)
3. I've Seen All Good People
3. Long Distance Runaround ...
Guaranteed grooves .
Jon Anderson vocals
Steve Howe guitars
Chris Squire bass
Rick Wakeman keyboard
Bill Bruford drums
One Amazingly talented band!
There were many iterations of this band (23rd now, I think), and most were quite good, but this lineup is iconic!
Brittish Invasion baby!! Great music invaded our shores from the U.K.
It's hard to believe they made this masterpiece 50 years ago. it stands the test of time.
God bless ancient history
Real musicians playing together! No auto tune!
On one hand - the absolute BEST music ever. On the other - just another FANTASTIC song on my AM radio driving my 63 Chevy II to and from high school! The original idea for the song came when they were being driven somewhere and went through multiple road round-a-bouts.
YES! MORE YES!! "Starship Trooper ", "Perpetual Change", :Southside of the Sky "
Also compare the studio versions to the Live version . The go to live version is Yessongs (1973). The studio versions were masterpieces but Yes really knocked these into orbit live. As I say they were masters in the studio but also became wizards on-stage.
70s YES were on a different level. You still have a ways to go until the deep depths of YES. They were beyond ROCK.
do more Yes you are going to be floored British bands took our gospel soul and blues and added their spin and blew America away with the sound. your watching Roger Dean artwork designed for YES.
It fills my heart watching younger people appreciate real music. Grear reaction mate, big up from the UK!
That tom-tom drum... fantastic
The artwork of Roger Dean is almost as much a part of the Yes mystique as the musicians themselves...
The Great English Bands got their inspiration from black American Blues artists, and 50's Rock, and Roll.
the songs by Yes: "Yours Is No Disgrace" ...... "Starship Trooper" ... "Perpetual Change" ..... there is lots more.
yes...other planet
you are listening the the greatest music EVER
Great reaction! This is the music I grew up with. Listening in high school.... we knew how special they and many other bands of this time were! Felt lucky. Glad to see a young person like yourself getting turned on to it! 😊
Time for Gates of Delirium!! As good a CTTE. Welcome to the YES fan base, which is worldwide.
Another great reaction. Yup, yes blew our mind then and we’re getting a kick out of it doing the same thing to you reactors now. Beware of the elders with pods in their ears. You just might be surprised 😲 what they’re listening to! 😂😂😂
For over 45 years Yes has been my number one band. I just focused on the songs from 1971 to 1977 they were epic, awesome, amazing. Such sonic journeys it is hard to believe they created these songs back then. Gates is a great epic. UK rock was heavily influenced by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones in the 60s. The Beatles tried so many styles and really broke through on so many fronts and set the scene for those who followed. But more Yes please.
We were so lucky to grow up with this wonderful music! Peace from the UK my friend.
You can rock out to Yours is no Disgrace, Heart of the Sunrise or Siberian Khatru before you jump into the twenty minute long Gates of Delirium!
This brave ass man started with close to the edge as his first yes song I bet he can handle Gates
Great time to be 18 and a music lover!! Saw them in NYC in 1971!! Academy of Music Best concert in my life I am 71
1975Boston
Gaaarden…..this is the encore….at the height or climax of the song dude jumps up onto the STAGE! Band STOPs the song!!! They get dude off, Anderson turns around….Goes 123..4!! BAM it was as if they never stopped Playing! Amazing! Can still remember this even! It was very impressive though! They resumed exactly where they stopped it was perfectly done! Wow!!! I wonder if Jon remembers this?
Bro when you started harmonizing with the outro you know you're in deep.
This is probably my favorite bass tone
those rickenbacker lads could sure put together a nice piece, and that squire boy sure could play...
@@missbelled6700 it slaps
I love that you actually react to the music and not stop and pontificate your feelings. You face says it all! Subscribed!
65 now and you remind me when I first heard Yes. We're talking late 60s to early 70s. Nice to see the younger people listening to the early rock that opened my ears of some of the best music ever. Enjoy your ears. It's a gift from the gods.
Rick Wakeman is said to have commented that Jon Anderson is dedicated to saving this planet, while living on an entirely different one. :)
Thanks for your genuine reactions. I heard Roundabout at the age of 11 in 1971. It opened the door for me to Progressive Rock, and Yes was soon followed by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, Genesis, and King Crimson. Bill Bruford played drums on the early Yes albums. He then joined King Crimson, and later toured with Genesis. In later years Bruford started his own self-titled band, started a band called U.K., and started his jazz group called Earthworks. I recommend every group I just mentioned. Enjoy the Prog vibe young man.
I see you discovered vzqk50's stuff. He's great in pasting together various photos related to the band's artwork along w/ other cool images. He's done montages for nearly every Yes song. I encourage you to do the deepest dive into this band thru his vids.
Siberian Khatru is the One. You have the Pure Studio Track, pristine, perfect, or Live from Yessongs, with the Stravinsky "Firebird Suite" Intro, and equally perfect, or
beyond perfect, rocket ride to Jon's Planet, with "extended" outro solo. They are both must hear at some point. Peace
Hey Pope. YOUR reaction to Roundabout out of the dozens that I've watched is by far THE GREATEST Sweetie. I coulda sworn that you were cryin several times cause the tune is just that GREAT! I AM a 64 year old Sista who first heard this Virtuoso Masterpiece in '71 & 'DID' cry. I felt then & still feel it viscerally, with my whole body. I knew that bass was cumin aftah the opening geetar chords & crescendo & was waitin fuh yo kinda quizzical facial expression to change & did it evah! Rockin out, coverin yo face, grabbin yo head, etc. GOOD STUFF! :-D
Yes at their finest. They can challenge any band, especially the widely copied style bass of Chris Squire- Rush bass/ keys/ vocals guy, Geddy Lee said so in presenting Yes at the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame party, and even played the bass part for his hero who had just passed away, R.i.P. Hi Pope- yeah Brit Rock- who'd of thought so, and then the Beatles and Stones open the floodgates.
There are three things that make Yes my favorite prog rock band ever. First it was the groove. No disrespect to Alan White, but Bill Bruford brought in a jazzy, funk feel to the band that didn't just make it swing, it made it soulful as well. And soul is something prog rock bands, especially the English, had very little of. This probably was the influence of Sly Stone. You hear it in the hard funk of Total Mass Retain and in the galloping bass lines of this song. In both cases Chris Squire's bass is mixed WAY up in case you were missing the point.
Second thing was the Beach Boys influenced vocal harmonies. Anderson, Squire and Howe harmonized very well and wrote melodies that exploited those abilities to great effect.
Third thing is that Yes could rock hard. Amidst all the noodling that could be aimless and boring (ELP and Genesis were very guilty of this too), Yes could out rock any contemporary band out there, even the ones who specialized in that type of thing. OK, maybe not The Who, but you get the point.
@@Azabaxe80 A cogent, well- thought out comment- I love it! You even got The Who and ELP exactly right... but Genesis- both amaze and annoy me, I'm ambivalent. In the groove with either Peter Gabriel or Phil Collins they were great, but if they just missed the groove, aimless and boring would be precisely accurate. Only that tiny differentiation between us- so let peace reign- fair?
@@27thangel23 I have nothing to argue with your piece. No need for a white flag:). I'm a huge Gabriel fan, but with the exception of a few specific tracks (The Musical Box comes to mind) I'm not a fan of Gabriel Genesis. I do love Collins-Genesis up to and including Duke.
Like everyone else in this world does, I think PGIII is superlative, and the soul in that man just shines through.
One last thing, I once heard Townshend refer to The Who as an RnB band, which shocked the hell out of me and then I started paying attention. And it made total sense.
@@Azabaxe80 For me, Gabriel best on "Melt" (that might even be PG3) and Sledgehammer/ Steam. btw Pete's first posters as The High Numbers, and later The Who posters said: MAXIMUM R&B, Shows you how old I am that I still have that detritus!
@kevin mcconnell If you look a little closer, you'll see that's EXACTLY what I said... Pope talked about the Brits, and I said the Beatles and Stones OPENED the floodgates (for Yes, The Who, The Kinks, The Yardbirds, the lot). Stupid? Care to fix your overhasty, underthought comment? Because if you do, ping me and I'll erase this comment. Otherwise I'm happy to let them both ride. But let there be more peace and less criticism.
Everyone has their own fav member of the band , mine was the late Chris Squire , that guy just had the hardest,softest,funkiest sound ever , he could make it talk and all the while wearing a cape .. 👍🏴
Prog on
Yessssssss
I saw this band 6 times Live! Much like a coffee-card, I paid for 5 and the sixth show was free! Really! Free concert in a huge city park on an island... And get this, the opening acts was Alan Parsons Project! Called in sick that day, but told the boss all about it the next day. That's how good a show it was! ;-]
👍 Enjoyed your reaction. I had just graduated from high school when this album came out. Couldn't wait to buy it and get it home to listen to it.
Dude. Mad respect, right!?! If you're into this you must hear Close To The Edge. I mean, for REAL!

Many a YES fan begins their journey here . Like PINK FLOYD , the band is a rabbit hole , with many a twist and turn .
Brilliant, brilliant reaction young man,and your right , Britain was and still is a great place for music , bless you
P.S. A 'SPIRITUAL JOURNEY' is exactly right!
Yes can lift your soul up to the highest emotional planes, rock with the best rockers, and groove with the funkiest of funk bands. Who else can do that??
Probably the most perfect song by the band. Steve and Rick working off of each other is simply incredible!
Great to see young folks reacting to this. It came out the year I was born and I discovered it in my 20's.
Top 2 Yes albums Fragile no 2. and Close To The Edge no ! no doubt!!!
You had exactly the same reaction I have every time
You caught the little backup "bip bip bup" in the last da da da das at the end. Your ear is very good. :)
You know What? Let's give some love to the record company (Atlantic Records?) executives for letting Yes experiment and come up with this stuff. Back then it was all about 3 minute songs, airplay on the radio and record sales. I'm surprised they allowed to do stuff like this back when the record companies controlled everything. Thankfully, they were and we can still enjoy it today.
Ahmed gave Yes and Genesis to the world.
Thanks to Ahmet Ertegun
Amen to that brother
Chris Squire gettin fonky with a pick, yeah!
My first meeting with Yes on the radio early 1972, I was 15
You have to listen to their Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction version of this live
Affirmative!
Awesome man
I bought the family some Roger Dean prints last Christmas. You'll see some of his artwork on a few of their albums.
vzqk50 makes awesome videos for YES music and other bands too. Enjoy.
I love your reactions man, because you're speaking from your heart and you're genuine and that makes all the difference.
If you'd like to watch some fellow YES fans, who also speak from their heart and are genuine, check out 'JustJP' and 'Dicon Dissectional Reactions'. They've both reacted to a ton of YES, along with several other good channels out there.
They've also promoted each other and even interviewed each other, which was a lot of fun to watch.
Maybe they'll do the same with you sometime 🙂
My favorite “Yes” song 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Squire/ Bruford were such a funky team
The guitar part at 4:25, you can clearly tell it's Yes in Pharoahe Monch's song The Magician but played slower and used as the main bass line. ruclips.net/video/Pp53DVnEXrE/видео.html
Check out 'Heart of the Sunrise' and 'South side of the Sky' from the same album and also 'The Gates of Delirium' from their 1974 release 'Relayer'.
The opening note is a piano played backwards.
Good job Your Worship 😉 and well resisted as far as Gates is concerned 😅
Next up, 'Yours is No Disgrace'. 🙏
Roger Dean created some legendary album covers for Yes. Fun Fact: He also designed the original logo for Richard Branson's Virgin brand that they used for years. Look it up, it was pretty cool 😊
I love this channel. You’re the best!!!
Woohoo! More Yes!
Such a good reaction. And we haven’t even sailed The Topographic Ocean or passed under The Gates of Delirium yet. Can’t wait.🔮
Right on - love your reaction!! Killer song, a masterpiece!
The most truly creative band ever!
YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Yours Is No Disgrace"
Yeah man, you can focus on any one musician and just listen to them, each one will blow you away. Bill Bruford the drummer, was meant for you.
The most recognizable snare drum in prog music. Bruford is One of a Kind.
This was on the radio when I was a kid. What a great song! 😁. So glad you like it!
Just love your reaction videos. You really feel the spirit of the music.
Some other RUclipsrs doing reaction videos say their videos get blocked as well if they don’t pause them somewhere in the song to make comments and then resume. That’s the RUclips rules. Keep it up man!
I can see you enjoy the incredible drumming of Bill Bruford, one of prog rock's best drummers! It is so fun to watch another generation groove to the music of my teen years. And as to them being on another plane, Rick Wakeman (keyboards) said of Jon Anderson, (singer-lyricist) "Jon is the only person who cares about the planet but lives on another one."
Lots more great music to explore with the most positive of the prog rock bands, Yes! Enjoy the ride!!🎵❤️🎵
The production on this one is of the first order and the bass line is of the hook.
Yes is on a different plane... truer words were never spoken 😁👍👍
They take too much time and thought for many but if given the time, they created a treasure of music that will go on and on.
Suggest doing a video of the next song "Cans and Brahms". It's not a big Yes hit or anything like that, but it's a nice transitional song that leads into the next two really awesome song mentioned on your Close To vid, "We Have Heaven" and "South Side of the Sky". Every song on Fragile is so cool, even the 35 second bit called "Five Per Cent For Nothing" (first song on side 2 of the LP) and is a nice warmup to the really interesting double-song Long Distance Runaround and The Fish, three you should consider doing together if you can. As far as your videos getting blocked it may be necessary to stop them in the middle to comment a bit, perhaps several times to get them to stick. If you do back them up a few seconds and restart. Seen many reactors having to do this with most bands. It's OK as a large majority of your viewers have heard these songs gazillions of times! We know them by heart and we're here to see how you reactors like them, or not. In any case, after doing all your vids and later when you get in the mood to hear any prog-rock band again, play their albums beginning to end for the best experience of all! ✌️😎
Such a fine pleasure watching you discover these master works It's like listening with fresh ears. I was twenty five and living and attending the University of Maryland when I first heard this at a campus Record shop. The manager kept it on the turntable.. I had never heard anything so well produced, That Bass kicked.. Roundabout was my first Yes experience. ,
Very nice.
Written & released way back in 1971.....
Just HALF of a CENTURY is all...
Really hope you watch jojo's bizarre adventure after listening to these great songs! You'll be in for a treat haha. Love these videos keep it up homie
Definitely getting into that show thanks for the reminder ⭐️
Arguably their best song and one of the top prog rock tunes of all time. You’re really tapping into some great stuff these days, brother!
I'm not sure that this is their best piece (I'd give that to CTTE), but it's definitely their defining song, and the one I'd first recommend to those who want to get into Yes.
Definitely one of my top reactions to this song! Love the Rush stuff as well.
Another contemporary of Yes was ELP (Emerson, Lake and Palmer) I'd suggest, From the Beginning or Lucky Man.✌
ELP amazing stuff; I would go for The Endless Enigma pt1-Fugue-Endless Enigma pt2 for a first up to showcase their talents. That is amazing, but you have to play all three together.
I'm excited to have found your channel. Rush, Yes, Pink Floyd, and Steely Dan are some of my favorite bands. Looking forward to more of you sharing your musical listening journey with us!
Do "South Side of the Sky at Tsongas". Best live performance of that song ever and I've heard it live a bunch!!!!! You'll love. Its time you did Live Yes!
Suggest Blue Sky by the Allman Brothers. You're welcome.
First time I’ve seen this. 🎉 Are you moving from 90125 to Big Generator soon? ❤
Funny thing how all the reactions to this song are pretty close at the start. First there a "huh, wtf is going on?" Then about 2 seconds after the bass kicks in there's an uncontrollable smile. Cool stuff.
I think it’s better not to watch visuals, as then you’re commented on the visuals rather than the music, or else the visuals taint the music. The music stands on its own. The visuals the music conjures up are, let’s face it, better than any video could represent.
One of the few bands that always sounded better live than on vinyl! I know it might be hard to believe with the incredible sound they put out on their records but they did either match or surpass with their live shows. I had the privilege to catch their live show a dozen times over three different tours. Beautiful music definitely one of my favorite bands
ITS SOOO MUCH BETTER WITH HEADPHONES. get some!
You have got the best YES reactions, Pope!
You got in the groove naturally, and you dug Bruford. You think you black or what?
Love your reactions!
You should try Turn of the Century by Yes off the going for the one album
