This song, this album changed my life as a teenager in 1974.
This was my favorite tune back in the 70's. I heard the live version off Yesshows first. I still prefer it.
Me too. I had the good fortune to be stoned and with friends the first time. The atmosphere was so mellow and safe I was able to listen and absorb this intense music calmly.
I'm right with you, Mark Simpson. I was a senior in high school in '74, already well versed in and in love with YES music. Relayer, and in particular The Gates of Delirium, taught me dimensions of music I never knew existed. Life-directing, life-changing.
Me too Mark, would have loved 1 more album with Patrick Moraz.
@@martinhayward4466 I saw Moraz play with Bruford around 83-84. It was all acoustic on a riverboat. Fantastic!
KSO summed up the music of Yes nicely when she said " Yes sounds like they make music for a world that doesnt exist///and the creators of that world just said "let them have this music to live their life and experience joy, passion and the human spirit"....
I'm fascinated by how universally accepted this song and this album is accepted by the younger generation on first listen. I was in HS when this album came out... After we cut our teeth on the Yes album, Fragile, CTTE and then Tales, our first reaction to Relayer was - WTF is this? We honestly didn't know what to make of it. Looking back, you are correct to say it was quite ambitious and risky to try to pull off a 21 minute song especially when its a departure from the sound you're fans were used to. The sign of greatness is that the album has stood the test of time and is even better now
Very very very well said!
I remember the cutoff point for Yes fans back then was with Tales. There was disappointment Wakeman was gone for this but Tales was too much for the casual fan. Their more pop 80s work really did them in. I had a very good friend who only liked this one and thats in 1975! It's a mixed bag.
The original production on this was awful. Its only the Steve Wilson remix, which has become the standard version, makes it listenable at volume. The pressing was shrill, shrieky, squealy, and smeared. So are Going for the one and Parallels. The new mix is like new prime era Yes album. This song is Chris Squires best power work. the bass wins the Battle of Poltava. Right here.
> our first reaction to Relayer was - WTF is this?
What is this? Arguably their best album. Of course, I was 18 years old when this came out, so that might have made a difference compared to younger listeners.
@@dannylgriffin where I grew up on long island we all were learning instruments. It was a very musical town.. what I meant was, we expected more of a yes album sound being that wakeman had left. After the first listen it was wtf? It's gunna take a long time to work out the parts. They didn't have videos in those days, we'd slow down the turn table and wear out the cassette players rewind and play buttons
By far your best reaction ever! Now you know how important "Soon" is to The Gates Of Delirium. Yes, it is one of their many masterpieces. FOREVER YES!!!
Your so right, that’s why I love prog, you get everything and it pushes perfection, there is so much in it. I look on this like Yes’s Suppers Ready!
@@dalebaker9109 Agree.
The 2 other tracks on the album are just as great "Sound Chaser" and "To Be Over"
Not crazy about Chaser I always felt it was somewhat disjointed though I really like To Be Ove And Soon is fantastic!
I love Sound Chaser. It's not super heavy or deep like a lot of Yes tracks, but really shows off the guys' superb musicianship and is tons of aural fun. Every time I get to the end I want to go back and hear it again, like a kid wanting to ride the roller coaster over and over. 😀
@@RoseNunezSmith I totally disagree with you as I feel it is kind of all over the place, deliberately so though not my favorite as compared to Roundabout or Heart of the Sunrise or Perpetual Change or Turn of the Century or And You And I which come together with crescendo and a unifying sound!
@@joelliebler5690 Well, that's one of the great things about Yes. They've got enough variety in their catalog to satisfy pretty much every discerning set of ears, while also occasionally disappointing some. I'm not wild about their "America" cover, for instance, while other people rave about it. But they're still my top choice overall, because their best is so far above and beyond other bands.
Their last great album.
I’d like to recommend the next Yes song: Sound Chaser. It’s an amazing journey
Totally agree. It's a real showcase for all of them, but especially Chris Squire, who is absolutely ON FIRE in it. That bass line at the end is insane.
@@RoseNunezSmith It’s one of my favorites by them
Agreed. The guitar break is Howe at his best!!
Sound Chaser is f'ing amazing!
Love the album, and love sound chaser. Been listening since 1974, I was 16 years old. And it still sounds fresh to me.
Here we go!!! Only Close To The Edge can match this song’s awesomeness!!!
Soon-one of the most beautiful songs in Prog Rock..
This was phenomenal on stage. The Roger Dean designed light and stage setup comes alive during the battle, light pods exploding with light as they move and beam lights at the audience. All while the stage scrim is bursting in flames! The lasers come alive during "Soon" reflecting out into the audience, safety regulations will forever prevent any repeat of this effect, causing people's faces to flash as the lasers passed through the crowd, filling the arena with a multicolored magical twinkling. It was amazing!
And I will be forever sorry that I wasn’t able to see that with my own eyes. All we have are some pictures in a Roger Dean book. Why, oh why didn’t anyone think to film it....
Saw this tour in Nashville in1975.One of the best ever!
I saw this tour in Rochester, NY. Absolute Top 5 Ever concert. And tied for loudest ever.
That show, still ranks as one of the best ever. Stage, Show, Music, was just incredible.
I had to go and see it twice. The first time I saw it I'd dropped a tab of acid beforehand, and I wasn't sure if what I was seeing was real. It was.
I simply Love your reactions to the great band YES, to think I’ve been listening to YES since 1969, WOW, & after 50 years a young musician such as yourself comes along & clearly you hear they’re great-nest!! There’s so much more to hear, to think they recorded The Ladder Album in 1999, & then Magnification with an Symphony Orchestra in the early 2000’s. Plus they’re all very approachable, nice men writing great music who appreciated they’re ubiquitous group of fans, fans who worshipped them but they were just musicians who love they’re FANS!!! Great job Chod.
Magnification was a wonderful way to close out your very last studio release as YES.
@Bookhouse Boy I really appreciate that Chod has the open ear to get YES Music because it surely isn’t for the faint of heart, & he truly gets it. You speaking of the 35th Anniversary Tour, My NOT LONG LOST Brother of Mine & I saw that show from row 4 Steve’s side in Atlanta & it was magnificent!!! To think this would be the last time we’d see YES with Jon, even though I’ve see YES a few of times afterwards, 3x without Jon & once without Jon or Chris & we saw ARW twice, then Jon twice & Rick once in solo & then my wife & I saw Jon & The 1000 Hands Band in Nashville one month after I had the aorta valve in my heart replaced, it was magical!!! As you can tell I’m a huge fan, we also had great seats for the tour that Jon got sick & was cancelled. In the Fall of 2019 my great friend Nic Caciappo had backstage passes for us for Rick’s solo show but we should have gone to see him before the show because we were told he was exhausted & we understood since we know how it feels to get older. lol Saying I’m a YES FAN is absolutely True I have one tattoo & it’s the YES Bubble in the colors of the Tales album. Plus I’ve seen them numerous times in the 70’s, 90’s & 2000’s, they were always brilliant.
Your reaction.......Perfection!!!! Even though this song is about Tolstoy's War and Peace Masterpiece Classic Novel which I have attempted to read several times....and never complete....this song is also about the War & Peace we humans are experiencing or have experienced in this Life!!!! When my friends and I first heard it we experience the struggle in and song and that ending brought tears and we figured that Yes was saying your struggles in this Life with your Life will all be over...you will past through to the world of Peace!!!! Man, that was a great feeling.....and hearing it again and watching you react took me back and reminded me it will all be over ....these struggles for Peace and Love.....and Peace and Love will win out and Remain. Now your next reaction is "The Revealing Science of God" and "South Side of The Sky" by Yes.
Chris Squire on bass....ALWAYS the best part of Yes
That line "Burn their children's laughter ... on to hell." strikes a horrible chord just days after the bombing at the girl's school in Kabul, Afganistan. "Soon" can't come soon enough.
Great stuff, my favourite prog. rock song for 45 years now, and it got a new and even better life recently with Wilson's 5.1 surround mix. Cheers.
I am so enjoying your journey into Yes. I have been a Yes fan since the early 70s and for the first time I heard their cover of the Beatles Every Little Thing. You need to hear the Yes twist on, The Beatles. It's special.
Have you done YES' cover of *America* yet, Chod? If you haven't you're in for another treat, my friend...
I saw their Relayer tour In Iowa City 1975. Then I met Keyboardist Patrick Moraz in Des Moines Iowa early 1995. He autographed my Relayer tour that I had on Lazer Disc.
Can you believe that Yes was not put into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame until 2017?
So true and I love their song America, it is so different from the original and it tested their imagination!
Now you're ready for "The Sound Chaser".... :-)
This Album is astounding. Yes are a total class act, fabulous in the extreme. I love the fact you love Yes.
You're right. They are the greatest band ever. Do Sound Chaser next. 😎
A thousand years ago (at least it seems that long), I would listen to this "album" on headphones while completing my college architecture homework assignments. Somehow, it always seemed to be at 3:00 AM. This brought back a lot of memories...
A word we utter a word, and that word is YES!!!
Your comment about listening to Yes music like you would an opera was interesting. During their Tales from Topographic Oceans tour, they played five 20 minute songs in a row. It was an amazingly awesome trip. You should try Tales sometime. It's special.
Chod!! You're ready to delve into, IMHO, Yes' masterpiece album, 'Tales From Topographic Oceans'
From the opening vocals of "The Revealing Science of God," through "The Remembering," the awesome percussion talents of Alan White on "The Ancient," and concluding with the spiritual "Ritual." The album is 4 side-long compositions that were woven together to create, arguably, an unintended divisive double record that caused Rick Wakeman to leave Yes for 3 years before his triumphant return for the final great album, 1977's 'Going For the One.'
Thanks for listening Chod, I think you know it was worth it. Sorry if you got flack for the order of your reactions. Still the best reactor on YT!
Agree. Of any reactor, I think Chod actively "listens" - then reacts. It's not just an off-the-cuff reaction. IMO.
I’ve listened to this song many times over the last 50 years and what it means to me is the tragedy of war and the hope of Christ.
A class album.
Yes.... Getting lost in something....
It's become difficult in this modern world of distractions and momentary focus. Like an Opera?
I worked for years in the theatre, scenic construction, props, costumes lighting, and being able to hold an audience (or an individual) has become a great challenge.
We call it "the willing suspension of disbelief". You are no longer in a theatre, you are in that story, as a fly on the wall, or sometimes even a participant. The music you have been experiencing is very much like that, ( whether wil headphones or being there at a live show) inviting you in.
Enjoy every minute....
It's why Yes, Genesis, Led Zeppelin, all of them and us(the elves in the workshops and the roadies setting up) do what we do.
They killed this in the round as evidenced by the version on the live album 'Yesshows.' It's my favorite version.
FINALLY!!!! YOU HAVE COME TO THIS MASTERPIECE!!!! We the Yes Fans have prepare you for this masterpiece and a few more.......You want transitions and excellent playing and musicianship you Got It!!!! This masterpiece and few others are reason we have HAILED YES as the greatest Rock n' Roll Band EVER!!!!! I am here to see your reaction!!!!
You mean Progressive Rock or Art Rock...Yes is NOT "Rock n' Roll"...
@@godbluffvdgg I will NEVER call Yes music "Progressive Rock" which some lame 21st century Millennial terminology. It was considered and called Rock n' Roll in my day 1968 and that's what it will stay will. And It's still Rock n' Roll to me and my generation.
@@anthonyblakely399 Firstly, Yes was born around 68. It was called progressive rock or art rock in the 70's when I was a teen. The Rolling Stones are "rock n' roll". Putting Yes in their same category is like Putting an AMC Gremlin in the with super cars like a Bugatti because they're cars.
But, if you want to call it rock and roll, it's your choice...Rock on!
@@godbluffvdgg It was my choice!!!! And It is my choice!!!! Look I am not stupid!!!! I know music......and we(my friends and I) were musicians back in the day...so when we heard Yes.....we called their music "Classical Rock" because the transitions and many parts of it sounded like Mozart and other classical Composers.....we didn't call their music "Art Rock" which refer to followers of Andy Warhol or "Progressive" which was pertaining to Jazz.......We did not go to concerts with everyone saying it Progressive Rock...We went to their concerts because it was Rock n' Roll to us.
@@anthonyblakely399 So, you guys are getting ready to go to a concert....Everyone has their gear on and their head stuff...And you say:"YEAH BABY, ROCK N' ROLL...YEEEE HAWW~ DEVIL HORNS~!!!"
Or : "We're going to Yes tonight!"
If you choose the former; you're like a good ol boy down south...If you choose the latter, you're a musician...
I've been a multi instrument musician since 74 Drummer by trade...The Who, Elvis, Grand Funk, Deep Purple etc are Rock N' Roll; to me. With The Who being the ACTUAL greatest rock and roll band in the genre...It's not all rock and roll; Rock and roll has a 4/4 - 7/8 beat.
Hi Wilburn; This is another great Yes song that I grew up with from the mid 70s. This time they take you to a war and back. Yes were amazing they could paint landscapes and take you on adventures though their music, like an Opera experience. For me The Yes Album, Fragile, Close to the Edge, Tales from Topographic Oceans and Relayer are five of the greatest prog rock albums ever. This song that takes you through the build up a group pride (nationalism) and the building of a army to go to war. However there are some questioning voices. Then on to war, the clash of armies and horrors that follows. The after the war the renewal and rebirth. Which is a really beautiful sub-song within the song. You could listen to this song 100 times and pick up new aspects, sounds, sub-themes just so many layers in this work. Thanks for taking the time to do this review. Most people are scared of the song length but really it is too short. The amazing talent that put this epic together for such a sustained length of time really shows Yes for all their talent. And they did this for so many albums so it is not a one off. Yes had more talent in the first 5 mins of these epics then most bands had in their whole careers. Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Jon Anderson, Alan White and Patrick Moraz all at 120% producing amazing sound. Such a work is just as relevant today as ever. Thanks for letting it live for a new generation.
man I love the way you changed the coloring on the scenery to go with the rhythm of the music only a drummer could have done that cuz you had the rhythms down I got to tell you something man Patrick Moraz played on this album he only played on one Yes album yes anyhow the guitarist that I played with in this band he knew Patrick moraz and so he convinced him to come down to his record store on PCH I have a little jam session so I was lucky enough to actually play with this character yeah somebody called while we were playing and said they were going to call the cops we all looked at each other and said fuck it let him call the cops I don't care we're playing with the keyboardist from yes here's something else he actually did two albums just him on piano and Bill bruford on drums I'm thinking of myself here I am playing drums with the keyboard player player who's played with the best drummer in the world per se or at least one of the best drummers in the world I better bring my A-game all right my man good reaction
I just heard "Turn of the century" on a different channel. I had forgotten how beautiful it is. Give it a listen Chod. You won't be disappointed.
Thank you. 😊 Yes's best rock'n jam. Squire just Awesome. Everyone was flying on this song.👍👍
The old men talk and war begins, young men die, mothers sing a lament. It has ever been so.
Relayer which this song is on is my favorite Yes album It is their most eclectic It features Patrick Moraz on keyboards It is their hardest rocking album You should check out Sound Chaser also on the album It is heavily influenced by Return To Forever Chick R.I.P. played on Jon Andersons latest solo album You will love Sound Chaser xDrummer Alan White kicks it turning in one of his best performances
FINALLY!!! I am so happy.😎
Now the song is completed. Thanks.
Squires's Bass is exquisite! Howe's Guitar work is just as amazing, The Moraz Keyboards are no less beautiful...Alan's drum work is some of his best...Jon, an angelic vision! ...When you've heard it 50 times you start to see it all together, After a thousand listens; It can bring tears to your eyes with it's profundity!
Thanks for taking the time to listen to whole piece....no worries...I agree with ScifiMonkey....you have the best reaction offering to be found.....Keep up the great work/fun...Ha!! .... Off topic....some day.... you should give a listen to Frank Zappa's Yellow Snow Suite.... as far as progressive melees' go, I think Frank worked every style and genre into this piece...along with his usual sarcasm of course...(always felt like Frank was giving a musical middle finger to us ignorant listeners, but his work should not be overlooked......) .... Also Just for you..... somewhere there is a recording (heard it once) of Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane...all together in the studio together for the only time, so the DJ said.....mesmerizing!!!
I have been dying for you to enjoy this masterpiece, 😎🙏, YES for ever.
You got it! This is Yes music in 70 's
YES!!! Doing the Journey!
Yes has been my favorite band, by far, since the early 1970s. I've seen them live 7 or 8 times and miss their 70s lineup (although Patrick Moraz was playing keyboards on Relayer as Wakeman had left to do some solo work). The Relayer tour, like all their tours, was awesome and when the concert was over, you just sort of sat there and wondered, "Did I really see and hear what I just saw and heard?"
In 2002, they did a Classic Yes Tour, which I saw at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain view, Ca, where they played almost entirely 1970s material, and there were an amazing number of young people there who hadn't even been born when most of the songs were recorded.
Alan's drumming on Gates and Sound Chaser is sublime 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Nice reaction - an amazing band - saw them live several times.
Great reaction! Now we need reactions to some other classic over 20-minutes tracks: "A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers" by Van der Graaf Generator, "Supper's Ready" by Genesis, "Lizard" by King Crimson, "Echoes" by Pink Floyd, "Tarkus" by Emerson, Lake & Palmer", "Eruption" by Focus or "Song of Scheherazade" by Renaissance. To name but a few.
Karn Evil 9 -ELP !!
Good to see that you emerged from this reaction intact! The first time I heard this in 1974, I thought this is so different than anything I had heard from Yes before, but you still know it is Yes at the highest level of musicianship we had already seen before.
For sure, you need to react to the other tracks from this album. Then perhaps Tales From Topographic Oceans.
I love the chaotic middle section in this. The clanging sounds are coming from a percussion rig made from stuff Jon Anderson and Alan White found in a scrap yard near Chris Squire's home studio where this was recorded. The other sound effects are coming from a Mellotron modified by Patrick Moraz who played keyboards on this.
Here's a user's capsule review of "Gates of Delirium" on the Rate Your Music site that sums it up nicely: "Blimey, progressive rock has its critics, but without it we’d be missing out on some of the greatest music of all time, and ‘The Gates of Delirium’ is just so very special that hyperbole isn’t enough, because it really is that good." -- oceanrain
Great production man! It's quite cool to see you so into this :)
I've heard this live. It's pretty crazy to know this was playable live. Incredible.
I have to agree Chod they are the greatest band I've ever heard and I've felt that way since I first heard them in 1976 at the age of 14.
Wilburn, I can't believe you took on The Gates Of Delerium. Kudos.
Still gives me goose bumps after 46 years
And just like the massage, it has a very happy ending.😂
This album (Relayer) and wish you were here by floyd released a year later. Are two albums that defined my teen years. They still give me a sense of wonder and amazement when I hear them. Keep up the fine reactions👍
Yes, very much enjoyed your reaction and thoughts. Listening to this song once again and it never gets old. I don't know if anyone has done it yet, but this song should be picked up and played by a symphony orchestra.
Nice idea Albert but how would a classical orchestra deal with this?!
It’s too complex for a symphony orchestra.
Considering how spiritually positive many of their previous songs were.....this very dark song had many of us scratching our heads. But all in all, still a great epic song.
Good morning! If ever there was a case for 33 &1/3rpm records to be 10 foot wide - this is one of many records by this group that'll fit the bill. 'Awaken' is another must. Both are being played by 'unknowns' on other planets'. Love the channel, it brings back so many good memories. Thank you & VBW x
As a teenager when I first heard this I was blown away ❤
Echoes by Pink Floyd will take you to another dimension also. Over 20 mins. of greatness 🙏
I really thought you would tank on this one but you didn't! Loved the review!
This tour was the first time I saw Yes live. The concert stopped playing in my head five days later. Needless to say I was so impressed that I saw Chris Squire and Yes 36 more times until Squires passing. RIP Chris.
That is a lot of song to digest in one listening. You have many insights ahead of you with each listening.
When you pass the Gates of delirium you never come back!!
RIP Bill one of the most technical drummers ever!
One of the masterpieces by Yes (for me). And in the right order, "Soon" also has a very special meaning. Isn't it time to listen to the live album Yessongs now? Maybe the first three tracks ("Opening", "Siberian Khatru" and "Heart Of The Sunrise") in a row? I am sure; once you start you don't want to stop.
Great reaction. Happy you enjoyed it. You should do Perpetual Change or South Side of the Sky next.
YES created a whole other planet with this song (and album). The originality of every sound and moment still blows me away 40+ years later.
Stand and fight we do consider reminded of an inner pact between us...
Your analysis is really nice. I didn’t like this song the first time I listened to it, too much going on and I couldn’t focus but, the more and more I heard it; the more and more I fell in love with it. I prefer the song ritual from their Tales album but, this is absolutely an amazing song, so fucking amazing
love me some YES. Can you check out Steely Dan's - My Old School.
Yes is so mindful I think about human emotions. Gates really transports you through the gamut of emotions. Steve Howe's phrasing on this album is so unique and visceral. He really is pushing the boundaries of the guitar like Miles Davis did with the trumpet on Bitches Brew. It might seem like an odd comparison, but Howe was influenced by so many jazz guitarists like Kenny Burrell, the great Wes Montgomery and others. Great review! Very thoughtful 👏
You need to watch the live version of this from when Relayer was released. Jaw dropping 😎
I like what you said about a song this long having to really grab your attention. It's really good to see younger people getting really into songs that I got into when I was a teenager. (I'm 59, how did that happen?) Yes was my favourite band as a teen, even though punk was thing I was supposed to be into the late 70s in the UK. But the *first* song which grabbed me which covered one side of an LP was Pink Floyd's "Echoes", one the album Meddle. If you haven't already, give it a go. And the next was Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells. Your may like that less, but you never know! Anyway, keep up the good work!
And now you know why, for some of us , this is a go to band, their music is captivating. This is(unfortunately) not music for the masses, most will dismiss this as to long, or too complex, and pass it by. For me it is not only great music, but my drug of choice.Santana is just as good, just as complex, just as satisfying. Check out albums Abraxas, Santana III, Caravanserai, Welcome, and Borboletta.
My top two bands, also.
Damn good analysis. How did you like the used auto part percussion section? Thank you Chod for even attempting this much less the insight you have into it.
Great reaction !!
Not certain the audio file was up to par. Great piece but the power and chaos requires the best sound to really appreciate the intricacies. Still glad you got to this as a whole though.
Relayer has a flat sound IMHO
Another masterpiece: pink floyd atom heart mother: band orchestra and choir also 20 minutes
Pretty cool live.

A real heavy weight epic. I grew up listening to Yes. Good message in their excellent music.
Man that groove at 11.40 . This is my favourite yes album.
Question: what is the Osibisa graphic doing in this video at 9:30? LOL.
Another interesting specimen Frank Zappa 'Cosmic Debris'.... if you haven't heard this, it's a whole new Genre
Genre = Zappa Music
Always loved this album my friends for the most part did not get it compared to Close T the Edge or Fragile or even the Yes Album but nit was always right up there with their best for me I wonder if you did South Side of the Sky yet that is a great one if you havnt.
It is soooo hard for me to pick a favorite YesSong..but this just might be it..Please do Revealing Science of God soon
Knew you would like it!!
Video was very well done.
Roundabout!!!
Perfect analogy the first time I heard it I was getting Sega Genesis Castlevania super Nintendo mega Man vibes
Yep. It's a ride
Run their children’s laughter on to hell...powerful stuff
I see you watched the video by vzqk50. Just so you know, he's got a video for almost every piece of music by YES. Enjoy.
😎
Oh, awesome.
I'm reading the comments before watching the reaction. I'm excited to read that Chod reacted to one of vzqk50's videos to Yes.
@@IllumeEltanin Love vzqk's videos.
Not easy listening but arguably their most complex work. Musicianship is insane. Always loved this album.
