No he is not.....he is one of the unique guitarist...and he is giutarist,who don.t need hollywood fame..or glitter. He is a guitarist... With unique style and way to play. He don.t need that kind of fame.
I saw them at Guaynabo coliseum in Puerto Rico in the early 1980's . At the end of that concert, he said what do you want me to play, I replied very loudly, Humble Stance" , they played that song.. Profound memories of my youth.
I've been a huge fan of SAGA since the beginning until today! Whenever they have a performance near me, I'll be there! I will climb into the coffin with their music one day.❤❤❤❤❤
Freude, Tränen, 3 Uhr morgens. Geärgert, verägert über Dinge die in der Welt passieren. Zur Ablenkung Musik hören - seit ich SAGA kenne, hatte ich als popeliger, kleiner Musiker nie wirklich eine "Lieblingsgruppe". Bis... Ein Freund lud mich ein zum Geburtstag und sagte: "Hör dir das mal an".... meine Herren... wie lange ist das her... Images at Twilight... ich könnte weiter reden oder schreiben... nein.... Danke Michael, danke Jim, danke Steve, danke Ian und alle die folgten. Danke für diese unvergessene Musik. Danke! Joy, tears, 3 a.m. Angry, anger about things that are happening in the world. Listening to music as a distraction - since I have known SAGA, I never really had a "favorite group" as a nothing little Musician. Until ... A Friend invited me to his birthday and said: "Listen to this" .... My God Gentlemen! ... how long ago was that ... Images at Twilight ... I could continue talking or writing ... no .... Thank you Michael, thank you Jim, thank you Steve, thank you Ian and everyone who followed. Thank you for this unforgettable music. Thank you!
Gleiche Geschichte: "Wie findest du das"? Eh, geile Musik. Das war ca. Anfang der 80er Jahre. Die Band ist immer noch super. Am Besten über eine gute Anlage mit mächtig Wums, so wie das viele früher hatten.
Nicht nur Ian Crichton ist einer der genialsten Musiker unserer Zeit. Diese Band, SAGA, ist in sich so genial. Drums, Synthies, Bass, Guitars....alles an SAGA ist ausgesucht genial.
Saw Saga in the late 70s in London, they opened for Stix. Saga got a fantastic response that night from everyone, And i guess like me now one had ever heard of them before. Still sound great after all those years.
@@keithscarterfield sure did, I won't forget saga that night. Just wish they would have kept that prog rock sound though on the album's that followed silent Knight.
There is not, nor has there ever been, a better band than SAGA! They are not my favorite band, but the level of musicianship and vocal prowess on display at this concert, is staggering! Ian Crichton is perhaps the most precise guitarist I have ever seen, I swear he has a metronome hard-wired into his brain! Watch this concert, these guys are still absolutely on top of their game! And there's only been a few bands ever who could come close to their level of precision! ROCK OF AGES is amazing!
I was at the first show of saga at rock of ages festival in 2006, it was a new festival in germany with saga the headliners of the second day of the fest, the show of saga was one hell of a party, I was lucky to meet a few hours before the show all the members of saga minus the drummer, I saw saga once again in 2014 at Sweden rock festival, the show was another celebration, thanks saga for all the wonderful music, the shows and great memories, you're the best
Fans they heard them in the 70t`s and 80t`s know`s what a fantastic Band they where . it`s like every other Band with great Musicians , they must have their Time and they have their Time and it was a great Time , WtF , the greatest time in my life !!!! One of the best Bands in the World for every time . Ian Crichton is a Guitar God and the other members of the Band are God`s too thank´s that you`ve brought me a better Life :-)
I´saw saga live long time ago, and they sound every time better!. No much bands do the same. Combining the guitar with the keyboard and the syncopated drum rhythms is a really difficult task, only typical of a great band. It can be done just with hard work, time and expierience!
This video gave me a rush watching it. I can't believe how great they still sound. Saw them in 1986 in Chicago. Unfortunately they never toured the states again.
heyy,i see you are also fan from saga;i see saga 1981 my first concert in my life.and my first and last trip . snd yi was 1983 for 3 months in Chicago..yeah i live in Switzerland, but my girlfriend in chicaco i fond to the Facebook after 36 years..i have xontact.i zell you tgis,because i love saga so much,and i was on Chicago, like you.i was one concert im Chicago, i never see this.the people take sleepingthings and make Picknick.. haha.the depeche mode was there. bye 😅
Why is Ian's brother Jim no longer in the band? Props to Michael for singing and playing bass "great job" what a voice too. I remember i was quite sad when he left the band and couldn't imagine them without him. Glad I missed that period and that he's back home where he belongs. Great band, great musicians, they deserve so much more attention. Long live SAGA 👍☮️
Oh yes, Ian is a good Player. Bit he is a one of my heros. I play self guitar, and this guy inspirate me in all of its playing riffs. A big hurray to Ian :-)
Saw them so many times in Niagara falls Canada early 80's ..if Rush was playing same night trust me people were going to see Saga they put on a better show and you got girls at a Saga show LOL !!! ....so sad they had to go to Europe to make it big but glad somebody could appreciate how good they were
Saga created the galactic rock sound. Those who loved it, loved it a lot. The rest looked for a generic sound, some category to fit Saga in. By being so unique and so uniquely humble, they were mostly overlooked as Canada's most original contribution to rock, at least of the Supertramp magnitude. And Canada settled for cookie-cutter 'trail-blazers' in the late '70s and early 80s of the Loverboy, Platinum Blonde, Glass Tiger, Doug and the Slugs, or Brian Adams ilk because in Canada you make it big only only if you sound like second-grade Americans to show those damn Yanks that Canadians can be as good as them by sounding just like them.
SAGA still sounds amazing. SO underrated. I loved WORLDS APART, but released at a time when Cyndi Lauper, Madonna were mainstream and RUSH was still out in left field (The way I like it !) I guess SAGA hard a harder time finding a foothold. I think that was my first intro into proggish type music.
i know what you mean! It's like you play "In Transit" on your record player at the same time, and there is a 0,0000000000000001% difference in timing!🤣
Michael Sadler’s voice is pure gold! What a tight band! Wow 😮❤
one of the greats
Yeah, tight is the right word! Every note of all different instruments falls into place so effortlessly. Incredible!
OMG... incredible...Sadler is an amazing bassists as well as incredible singer. Perfect live performance all around...the band .. perfect.
My first Saga concert was in 84 and the last one 23. Michael Sadler voice is still stunning.
Es gibt kein keine Band die SAGA das Wasser reichen kann!!! Ohne Worte "I Iove you"
stimmt ....... 😎
Ian Crichton one of the most underrated guitarists - absolute genius
No he is not.....he is one of the unique guitarist...and he is giutarist,who don.t need hollywood fame..or glitter.
He is a guitarist...
With unique style and way to play.
He don.t need that kind of fame.
"underrated" what a word :(
had the great fortune to see him 'live' 3 times!....wonderful guitarist!
I love his sound!!!, power, precision, perfect rock guitar sound
No se mucho ingles for me a great great band all the times
I loved it when last year Michael Sadler sad: "when you keep buying tickets, we keep playing because this is what we truly love".
Love live SAGA. Thank you for all the incredible music!!!
Fantastic...Awesome...no words strong enough for this band
They are just like wine....the elder they are, the better they will be.....and they are better than ever....and they are still growing.....
Long live Saga,they still kick ass.

Ich kann es durchaus nachvollziehen.
Pareil, la preuve je les ecoute encore aujourd,hui
So do I 👌
Still Love their incredible Sound and voices.
That tone 🎼💯

Yes man I enjoy the same Tour in Munich - two great bands in one concert !
I was at that Hammersmith gig, blew Styx away

@@diabolusvincitYou're right.. wow!!

One of my favorite bands , still great as ever ! Wonderful songs , musicianship and vocals ! WOW !!!

Thankyou Saga for contributing a great soundtrack to coincide with my healthy struggles growing up.
I have been a Saga fan since they first came out, now I feel old lol :-) ROCK ON!!!!!!!!
Sounds pretty darned good to me.
Such a great band..
Briliant . Saga sind Legenden.
Great, strong sound, even more powerful than decades ago. Some bands defy time and age.
Love live SAGA!
My absolutly favorite song from Saga. Great Band forever! 👍

I listen to this Album/concert at least once a day. This is the best they’ve ever sounded in my humble opinion
Humble stance is a masterpiece !
Anfang 80er s erstemal gehört , seitdem immer wieder sehr gerne :-)
Какие молодцы! Its great! I'm SAGA fan from 1981.
True heroes of Rock Music!
Los vi por única vez aquí en el poliedro de Caracas, Venezuela en 1982, simplemente increíbles. Saludos.
I'am agging along with them, I feel allright! Bless them all.
Beautiful Song...Great Guitarist!
Groupe fantastique je vous envoie un❤️depuis la Suisse 🇨🇭
Love them especially Michael the lead singer & the brilliant lead guitarist. 💜💜💜💪💪💪💪

I saw them in Lyon in 1984 on stage (was a litle girl...)... inoubliable!
Saw them last in New Jersey at ProgStock in late 2019. There is hope they'll come again.

Fantastic! My first CD was "Behavior" in 1985. Been Following since then. Can't wait for this one to hit!
Ian is still so awesome!🎸
The best band EVER!❤❤❤❤❤
Saw them on the "Live in Transit" Tour. Timeless Song!
Fantastic! I never got the opportunity to see SAGA live ...
Danke !
Saw them in the 80's with Supertramp and they seem even better in this video ! Icons and criminally underrated in their own country !
what an incredible band !!
Genial! Meine Jugend!
Untouchable so classy and inspirering
Sounds just as awesome as they would've performed it in 1978
To me, the longer they play, the tighter they get!
Why is Ian's brother Jim no longer in the band?
Props to Michael for singing and playing bass "great job" what a voice too. I remember i was quite sad when he left the band and couldn't imagine them without him. Glad I missed that period and that he's back home where he belongs. Great band, great musicians, they deserve so much more attention.

Ian is definitely king number one!!!
Just awesome music/rock! Watching this for the 3rd time in a row, it sounds so healthy an inspiring.
And herein lies the difference from today's unhealthy music.

Wow. Just great band!
Génial toujours génial le groupe Saga 👍toujours d’actualité ❤️❤️
Iconic! 🙂

Fantastic performance, very very tight - and how's about Sadler playing exceptionally well on bass!
Saga y Rush lo mejor de Canadá 👍👍👍👍
Play like that 🎼💥
Wonderful :)
🎶there’s no one going to help you 🎶
still awesome
My Heroes ❤
Muito boa banda fantástica, adoro❤
Saga au top ❤️🇨🇵🇨🇦
Ian Crichton.....unique☝️
A MASTERPIECE of the all music
SAGA still sounds amazing. SO underrated. I loved WORLDS APART, but released at a time when Cyndi Lauper, Madonna were mainstream and RUSH was still out in left field (The way I like it !) I guess SAGA hard a harder time finding a foothold. I think that was my first intro into proggish type music.
In paar Tagen in Limburg 👍👍👍👍💫💫💫
If you have surround sound, turn up the bass woofer. It's brilliant.
Perfekt 🇩🇪❤
Gänsehaut!
Unreal.
i know what you mean! It's like you play "In Transit" on your record player at the same time, and there is a 0,0000000000000001% difference in timing!🤣
BRAVO
1982 Saga das erste Mal gehört komme nicht mehr davon los .
GREAT GREAT GREAT SUPER ROCK
Wow🥰
Wow, i get under my knees, whats a fucking good combo
Why only 2100 likes ? I don`t get it ! This is sublime music folks .😉❤🔥
Amazing to keep the voice so precise all these years. Do they still play today (2024)?
For all the 25 year olds that can't sit their assess down. and appreciate great music ... Here some bouncy balloons....fml 🤦
1992 in Illingen- Uchtelfangen u.1993 in Illingen-Hüttigweiler Geile Konzerte👍
GEILER ROCK VOLLER HARMONIE UND SUPER SOUND
excelente sonido, unicos, geniales, inigualables, elegantes...i love SAGA:
Alll i have ro say is wow
Pardon my grim demeanor...I injured my hand at the beginning of that tour and I was in a lot of pain during that show; I usually smile a lot more :P
It's all good bro
You were a great fit for Saga- it's hard to replace Steve, but you brought those songs to life in an amazing way. I hope we'll meet again.
Rock solid, ThorneDJO! Sounds fantastic!
Don't you dare apologize :)
man, your drums are tight as fuck. solid sound on that snare
Mega 💫💫💫👌👌
Love this song very much.
Is there any back track for this music please ...
yeah I love the guitar sound, on other live recordings the soundman messed up a bit
W O W..Just heard at Spotify..!!
