The bass player, one of the best in Rock and roll history. Loving the Rickenbacker bass in stereo, the neck pickup through a guitar amp, and the bridge pickup through a bass amp. Toothy. Deep. Fucking great.
So, there is The Ox (shook his hand), there is Jack Casady, Flea, Phil Lesh... and hundreds of other amazing BASS GUITAR players... but Chris Squire had a vision of positive and high velocity, plus sensitive to emotions, music. Amazing composer and I heard a really funny guy. Miss the chance to meet him, but was there enough times so that is inconsequential. let the bands play on....
We will NEVER hear music of this extraordinary caliber again. Yes were a band of unparalleled innovative and technical ability underscored by some of the most beautiful and lyrical songwriting in the rock canon. We shall not see their like again, I fear.
This is nuts... this is real musicianship... it's live, yet nothing out of place... two keyboards, two drums, two guitars, yet each within it's own sonic space... brilliant...
Thath!! Chris squire,bass just UNIKE !!! Ever YES band I love you guys thanks for your marvelous music,Anderson,,Howe you are masters of my times God bless you all amen.
I saw Yes back on '77 in Indianapolis. They were phenomenal. The laser light show was beyond awesome! Jon's vocals soared. Wakeman was incredible as always. No band on Earth was more talented.
People put Yes at the top of the mountain as musicians, & they’re right. But what really sets Yes above the other virtuoso bands to me is the writing, the incredible lyrics & the phenomenal melodies. And that voice. Never going to happen again. Jon is once in a century.
I concur. I've been amazed by the voice of Jon Anderson since the 70s. My favorite band will always be Emerson Lake and Palmer. Something that I've been enjoying for over 40 years is ASIA Live In Budokan. When Greg Lake filled in for John Wetton, and Carl Palmer drumming, it was 2/3 of ELP. That's when Kozy is Powell got to tour with Emerson and Lake on the Touch And Go tour. Those two bands over the years have had some of Rocks' finest musicians and singers. My first indoor concert was ELP on the Brain Salad Surgery Tour, at Madison Square Garden. They toured with about 100 members of the London Philharmonic Orchestra. That got me hooked on going to concerts.
Omg the musicianship is superb. I loved this song as a tween in jr high early 70’s. Now I listen to all their music on my soundcore speakers. I feel I’m at their concert 🎵 ❤❤❤
london 1973...bought fragile...hooked for life!...so many wonderfull memories over the decades since...many many live concerts and i am due to see them again in glasgow in may 2024...70 year old man making a complete arse of himself that night...cant wait!!!
In the years before youtube I always thought music of this complexity was only possible in a studio with a lot of multitracking, but here it is.....note-for-note perfect and with a groove that surpasses the studio version by a large margin....incredible!
I was BORN is a very fortunate Timeline(1952).. Got turned on to FM Radio after leaving the Army(1971). They say Music reflects the Times & got to tell you it was ALL wonderful then..
I wore this album out back then. Put on the head sets, played the vinyl on my Marantz hifi, whenever had a bad day from abusive father. It was my own personal escape from reality.
@Justin Farrell Technically Rabin is a good player, but stylistically he does nothing for me. For one thing his style is stuck in the 80s and it's very trendy. Unlike EVH, Rabin's trend is over.
Me too. 1971 and the fragile album. Maybe 72. I joined the army as a 17 year old moron. Long Distance Runaround was my favorite song during basic training at ft Polk LA.
Esto es arte señores, verdadera música nata del rock progresivo británico. Es emocionante ver a Bill y Alan tocando la baterías, a Steve y Trevor en las guitarras, a Tony y Rick en los teclados, a John cantando excelentemente y al hombre que hizo del bajo un instrumento muy preciado en el rock, el gran Chris que en paz descanse. ¡Viva el Rock! ¡Viva Yes! ...Continuará...
We felt the same way in 1970 when we saw them at Duke Cameron Indoor Stadium! We were all blown away. They were better than James Gang who they opened for...
I'm 76 this week and remember first seeing them in the early 70s at the Liverpool Empire first with Rick Wakeman and again with Patrick Moraz, still love them today R.I.P.Chris
I saw Yes three times in the late '70s in the SF Bay Area. I moved to Austin in the early 90's and saw them in a small venue called The Backyard, which seated about 1500 people. After only seeing them in huge arenas it was amazing to see them up close and personal. It was a kick ass show. Even better, Bruce Hornsby was the opening act.
Tulsa, Oklahoma Yes Drama Tour, row2 front center seats, Round About, cut phenomenal, ten tue Summers, but when We arrived our seats had been moved due to all the Yes stage, mechanics, confused and angry, ushered someone to explain, lo and behold, A big Thanks to the Yes Band and everyonel the team that makes events like this happen,❤ ....... We had been moved to front row center in the Round. Thank you, all.
There are a few other bands such as Rush, Cream, King Crimson, and Steely Dan that rival Yes in musicianship but none are better. Yes is at the head of the class. Love this band.
Obvio ...donde están los mejores músicos de su instrumento...y tener una educación musical muy avanzada ..eso es yes...adelantado 50 años...a su tiempo..
To anyone that hasn't experienced early (1970s) and classic Yes, can't appreciate the greatness of this band...after 1978s "Going for the One " is my last album in my collection..seen them 10X and was never dissapointed....RIP Allen White......
I first heard this song (and YES) at Mass when I was a sophomore at an all-girls Catholic school. Needless to say, it was a revelation! Love it to this day, 40+ years later.
Just a kid with a developing sense of music, I was on my way to the beach with my older, hipper sisters when this song, one of Yes’s few major commercial hits, came on KHJ radio. I fell in love with the song, it’s impossibly unusual and varying sound of master keyboard playing (not yet knowing who Rick Wakeman was) and just after acknowledging how hot Steve Howe is on the guitar while observing Chris’s deft and intricate bass lines, not to mention Alan Whites capable drumming. All this occurring with Jon Anderson’s boyish, fairyland soprano and angelic image takes you to other worlds! Fuck they were tight! I saw them in LB in 73’ when they did the Yessongs tour and it blew my head into little bits that sprayed the seats and people in front of me with glow in the dark brain matter during “Wurm” which was their usual last song. Rick Wakeman and Steve Howe get Into a call and respond toward the end with the synthesizer and guitar that still causes chicken skin that may bleed. Many of todays acts are great dancers and performers but few are virtuoso musicians at the top of their game with their instruments of choice! I’m for talent and skill, not image.
I had no idea that Yes had played together with this "morphing" of two variations of the band! All very, very talented musicians and Chris Squire... well, what more can be said. He took the bass guitar to unbelievable heights!
This is the song that started it all for me. Decades later, I have owned my guitar repair biz for 47 years. Met several other players who became musicians because of Yes or Roundabout. As a kid, I honestly couldn't imagine what this band looked like, especially Jon. Oddly, at first it was the keyboard solo that starts at the break that captured me. Later, it was the guitar parts.
I have to say the magic of Yes didn’t really click with me until I went down the rabbit hole of their live performances. Admittedly late in life….but I finally get it. 💕
I get it. I'd heard this piece but didn't appreciate it until a girlfriend related it to me. I have always given it a higher level of respect ever since. Cheers
When I started playing bass at the age of 12 my 1st lesson was with John welstead of Fremont Nebraska. My 1st lesson consisted of listening to this song, rush and entwhistle of the who. John said I can teach you some of each bass players style and you will do well. I'm so glad he did.!
Dam they look like they are having so much fun with the jam that starts at 5:42...with Squire and Wakeman kicking it off and Steve Howe blasting in and bouncing to the beat...and you know they played this song thousands of times and to come with this much energy!!!
I am so glad this (Yes) was one of the only Concerts that I went to in my younger years. They were the tightest bunch of musicians I have ever heard and maintained that throght their career. CRIS SQUIRE being my #1 favorite of the group then the others. I'M talking a long time ago and they were in their infancy and so was I . I was 20 yrs old and that was 50 yrs ago. (70 yrs old for me) D
Like the play one for me how about why don't you play something for me I really mean it play what you think I'm off to here I do mean it please play something you think I would like
@@davidjohnson4620 we set up a stage like that that freefall the other band was on one side and the other was what you were looking at newborn to mention more do you know who you are replying to I tell you what man we were Brody's we set up stages and all the wiring to eat amplifier at that time you misunderstood me I said Roadies with the r you making Google sound pretty dumb right now where are you at gave you the wings to fly could I hear hand me down world I would like to hear it please
The musicianship was there then and it still holds true today. Not all can play at this level for this long. These people can and do. Some step up to the plate, these guys kick the plate around because they can. Originators and innovators, prog rock by the roots kids. Listen, learn and love!💖
Saw the band at the old Glasgow Apollo Theatre in about 76/77. Got there so early we saw the bands sound check via the stage door. Was lucky enough to shake hands with them all as they left the theatre. Happy days.
The last Chord it's a E major....and the entire song is the E manor chord...BRILLIANT!..Iḿ 67 and i've been my whole life playing and learning this song on guitar and keyboards..I'm not a profesional musician, I'm only amateur!!
First time seeing YES was June 29, 1979 at the Lakeland Civic Center in Florida. They had a rotating round stage in the center of the auditorium. The sound was absolutely perfect. Loved it! Still a favorite in October of 2022.

55 years later and I’m still listening to Chris’ signature song as if it was released last week. 😎🎸
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Alll master musicians! Wakeman owns that keyboard!
Steve Howe is in the top guitarists of all time!
Amazin!
the bass line: one of the best of rock'n'roll history.
The bass player, one of the best in Rock and roll history. Loving the Rickenbacker bass in stereo, the neck pickup through a guitar amp, and the bridge pickup through a bass amp. Toothy. Deep. Fucking great.
EPIC! Chris Squire- RIP🙏
He's too much so outstanding!!😮
Bass player's a virtuoso. He plays bass like lead guitar. Truly awesome. Cheers
In my life it is the bass line that set me on my bass playing journey. The bass line!!!!!
Chris was just a BEAST. Wonderful musician and mightily missed along with Alan. Rock on you guys.
I saw them twice and will never forget it....
Fun watching his stage presence & high level playing
I used to have this song 🎵 on a 45. Remember those along with 8 tracks? Yes is amazing 👏! Who's listening to this song in 2024?
everyone who respects a genius when they hear it!!
I'm 64 and I been listening to Yes since I was 13 years old.
@@jamiejafolla9251 so with you! I was 12 when I first herd Roundabout...life long Yes fan from then on!
Just saw them in Toronto last week!! Still great
I’m 58 myself, I appreciate it, compared to what they play today.
After 50 years I still get excited listening to this piece of perfection!
And you. and I
Totally agree.
I had many a front row seats!
me too
So well said!!! So tight, so good, lncredable band!!!
RIP Chris Squire, one of the all time greats........
So, there is The Ox (shook his hand), there is Jack Casady, Flea, Phil Lesh... and hundreds of other amazing BASS GUITAR players... but Chris Squire had a vision of positive and high velocity, plus sensitive to emotions, music. Amazing composer and I heard a really funny guy. Miss the chance to meet him, but was there enough times so that is inconsequential. let the bands play on....
@@billsadler3 Chris Squire is better .
Good balls. None of you even play bass. Just shut up.
Chris te BEST ..bass
Yes es el mejor de grupo de rock progresivo más puro
My Lord each and every member of this band was a master at his craft! 😊❤❤. Played it 3 times tonight.2023.
Finally the rock n roll of fame got one right
Love this.song ❤️ listen to it all the time when I traveled on the road.
excellent helps me work & kick back 🎶♥️
We will NEVER hear music of this extraordinary caliber again. Yes were a band of unparalleled innovative and technical ability underscored by some of the most beautiful and lyrical songwriting in the rock canon. We shall not see their like again, I fear.
ok boomer
So very true. When I seen them in concert in the early 70's no other group was like them.
Same here saw them in 70s live in Manchester
This is nuts... this is real musicianship... it's live, yet nothing out of place... two keyboards, two drums, two guitars, yet each within it's own sonic space... brilliant...
When you’ve got Howe, Wakeman, Squire and Buford who needs filler?
@@carygson I think the only yes member not there is Trevor Horn
And Jon Anderson just holding it all together with his vocals... Brilliant!!
Wow
Only room for one guitar player. Trevor doesn’t fit in
Thath!! Chris squire,bass just UNIKE !!! Ever YES band I love you guys thanks for your marvelous music,Anderson,,Howe you are masters of my times God bless you all amen.
I got turned on to Yes, when I was in high school, 1973-75, loved them ever since!
As did I! Just turned my grandsons on to them and they love them too.😚
70's best time to be in H.S.
The music will never be matched, not even close!
When Round About came out on the radio...it was a now for something completely different.
Just changed everything....mind blowing!
That’s when music, became innovative ,, the 70’s were a move away from the problems of the 60’s. A new generation grew up ❤
I was at this concert in Grenoble France ... what a tremendous experience 🤩😍 RIP Chris and Alan we miss you 😭😭
I saw Yes back on '77 in Indianapolis. They were phenomenal. The laser light show was beyond awesome! Jon's vocals soared. Wakeman was incredible as always. No band on Earth was more talented.
Anderson,Howe,Brufford,Squire,Wakeman..a gift from Gods
Yes
Yes
especially the tour
There using my fav drummer too, alan white
Howe about Trevor Horn, Geoff Downes, Alan White , Trevor Horn , Pat Moraz and Peter Banks lineup would be ineresting as The Cinema hmmm?
This is truly an exceptional group of musicians, a different level of playing.
👍
Honestly having all critical members together for this Union tour is so cool...truly a Union.
Bruford’s memory of Union was it was a mess

Yes ☺️
If the bass is insane, throw him back into the lake
that's some damn good punchy tone
bass makes the track
welp its chris squire and he’s a god so don’t expect anything boring out of him lol
Great band!! I was fortunate enough to see the Yessongs tour and they are still amazing!! Chris Squire RIP!!
Absolutely the best
Man, Jon’s voice is golden, so effortless for him, impossible. Born with it.

yes talented persons exists and they are making us love!
It Takes incredible monitoring to be able to hear each other or they are just able to follow brufotd the time keeper.
YES always recorded music they could recreate on stage. Couple that with unspeakable talent and you have got the greatest band on earth.
Saw them three times. Never heard a band sound better live. Consummate professionals.
The "tracks are all the players" in that stage my friend.
I was there!! So amazing!! I love this band so much!
Yes is an amazing band. I feel that they're forgotten these days. I never hear them on the radio.
what a fantastic thing to see and hear musicians like this perform...
I'm almost 70 so I can remember those days. A masterful performance.
Yea!!! Was in High School when this came out and we saw them at MSG. Still remember the show it was so good!
Age 67. We had GREAT MUSIC!!!
ほんとうにすばらしいですね ⚘
Play it forever ❤❤❤

Sorry to hear, a great escape though.
There are no words for how good this is. Still think Trevor Rabin is criminally underrated.
By who? known as a great guitar player and writer.
Yep! Rabin and Howe have such different styles, so it's interesting to watch them play together.
Love TR’s influence on the band. He is kinda the glue to the different parts or the salt …

A million years ago, this is why I wanted to play music. Vocals, keyboards, guitar and bass, A good place to learn to play.
Hell yea! Now I know why I liked this so much when it came out. Damn we were getting the best rock music ever...
The first time I heard this was in early 1972. It was far from the typical rock & roll being played and I loved it. Been a fan ever since.
Me too. 1971 and the fragile album. Maybe 72. I joined the army as a 17 year old moron. Long Distance Runaround was my favorite song during basic training at ft Polk LA.
Can't believe there are any dislikes. This is one of the anthems of rock along with Stairway to heaven! Amazing!

Because they have more people playing in the band, Than usually.
We felt the same way in 1970 when we saw them at Duke Cameron Indoor Stadium! We were all blown away. They were better than James Gang who they opened for...
Just outstanding musicianship and composition!
Roundabout still sets the bar as one of the all-time greatest live songs by an amazing band!
Thanks from Brazilian Amazon region!
Perhaps the greatest live version of Roundabout ever!?!?
This brings back memories. Born in 1952. We had music that those born in 2000 and later will never know.
What an incredible group they had at this concert. Very rare to see Rabin & Howe on stage together. What a treat. 👍😎🔥
Great song from a great band. Dont have music like this any more.
These guys are amazing always have always will be. How amazing it was to be born in 1960.🥳🥳🥳🥳
Squire's bass was lead guitar on this one. God I miss him.
The two greatest and most recognizable opening guitar harmonics of all time.

...This is one of my favorite song tunes when I’m busy in the kitchen This is perfect
First time seeing YES was June 29, 1979 at the Lakeland Civic Center in Florida. They had a rotating round stage in the center of the auditorium. The sound was absolutely perfect. Loved it! Still a favorite in October of 2022.
Saw them same tour in Winnipeg.Can’t forget that round stage.
