Since I can't see anyone else has mentioned him: Steve Howe, one of the most underrated guitarists ever. He composed guitar parts which are perfect for the song and yet he flits over the fretboard as though it isn't 2 feet long.
That transition section where it cuts just back to his strumming sounds so simple, but very few guitarists could carry the whole weight of the song like that and make it work. Brilliant.
I don't know how a guy voted "World's Greatest Guitarist" five years in a row and thereafter disqualified from standing for election again can be described as "underrated". Among guitarist, he is rated at the same level as Jimi Hendrix. I'd buy "forgotten", but I you can't sell me on "underrated".
@@kennethkalls4031 He's underrated _now._ Look on the internet and you'll find people raving about Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Tony Iommi. Endless cover versions of other guitarists' work.
@@BenjWarrant If there is anything worth a bit of a discussion in the music world, it is Steve Howe. I suppose our competing opinions could be reconciled by agreeing that guitarists still worship him, but the common music fan no longer even recognizes his name if he or she is less than 50 years old. It is strange that a man who is still performing and touring with Yes can be labelled as "forgotten", but, then again, Yes has been forgotten, too. Young reactors all over YT keep saying they've never heard of the band, and I've had many debates with middle-aged commenters who insist that Yes in the '70's was only some obscure band that few people knew about,
The typical "guitar god" plays a bunch of standard blues licks at light speed. I think Howe could easily do that, but he has consistently gone out of his way to play his multiple guitars to produce runs and licks nobody has ever played before. I can't think of a single Yes song in which Howe played some typical runs or chords.
His versatility is astounding, and maybe that's a blessing for us, but a curse for him, because fans seems to gravitate towards a particular style when having GOAT discussions about guitarists. Some always opt for the shredders. Other opt for the emotive style of Hackett, Rothery, or Gilmore. Howe can and does play everyfuckingthing brilliantly, but other than noting he's brilliant, how can you describe his style?
It also hurts Howe quite a bit, IMHO, that during the band's most popular period in the '80's, it was Trevor Rabin on lead guitar.
Steve is forever my teacher !
RIP Chris Squire (and his glorious Rickenbacker 4001)
They were older here and so a bit less aggressive/ limber, but it was still great. Earlier live performances are crazy fun. But I loved this one, and seeing Chris having fun brought a tear to my eye.
So right. It’s great, but the album version is just earthshaking. I love this group and Genesis.
I was just saying I can't believe its been almost five years since Chris left us.
tears for sure.....
Losing Chris so soon was truly heartbreaking. I do remember during a performance in 2000 Jon forgot part of the lyrics of a more recent composition but they & the audience were all quite amused & it was really sweet how they can goof slightly. I later met & talked to Jon & Rick around 2016 after a sound check in Seattle, they were so friendly & gracious & interested in me & my buddy, superb human beings.
Great, but nothing compared to 1973- (first time played Starship Trooper live) -1979!
Yes created their own genre.Nobody sounded like them on record and then they could do it live too.
Saw them live in brussels 2000 I think. Best performance I ever witnessed. You could feel the bass in your stomach. At first I feared their style had changed, but they were amazing, playing all the old tunes.
I put them and Genesis ('70-'76) in the same category. Yes build planets. Genesis tell stories on those planets.
Chris Squire is one of my favorite bassist. The only way I can describe his style is he plays it like a lead guitar. Check out "Heart of The Sunrise" for a great example.
I was going to recommend this as well.
I think it is completely fantastic that Yes had Geddy Lee stand in for Chris for their RRHOF induction performance of Roundabout - the only bassist that could do that bass line justice besides Chris.
"Yours is No Disgrace", by Yes, will blow your mind..
Absolutely along with Perpetual Change, And You And I, And Awaken!
A prog rock classic. Yes was unbelievable live.
Oh Yes they certainly can do it live LOL
"Yours is no Disgrace" and "Heart of the Sunrise" are two classics by Yes... and they're just appetizers! I know that you're in for the full course!
Chris Squire is The GOAT of bass playing! Steve Howe among the very best and most innovative Guitar players!
Seeing Chris Squire dancing around on stage with his bass makes it hard to realize he's been gone since 2015.
He was great on stage
He rocked that Rickenbacker bass, what a great tone
I enjoyed this song & your reaction to it. But do yourself a favor and look up the 1972/1973 “Yessongs” live versions of any of their classic songs - this one included!
You speak from my heart
.
My MAN, Chris Squire (rip) having so much FUN on stage!!!
.
You must do Close to the Edge it will blow you away! It's a long song but you will love it!
When you see Yes perform it can be overwhelming - being at a live concert is another level again.
Would you believe me if I told you that the YESSONGS version is even more spectacular, if that is possible. "Yours Is No Disgrace" from YESSONGS will utterly blow you away.
Close To The Edge, and Awaken, will leave you completely speechless.
You speak from my heart
Indeed! Wakeman was on it! Much better version, even though all versions are good!
I just spent about the last 6 months of 2020 with YESSONGS in my car CD player... I bought the double record album in 1979. It’s just amazing. It never fails to give something new.
@@varsitycamplife I've been all into it lately myself! I bought it as soon as it released and wore it out! It's such a great album!
@@tommathews3964 I loved it as a kid. I wore it out too! And then one day I set it on the shelf for about a decade and a half and then out of the blue decided to buy the CD. When the CD came and I listened to it the first time I didn't connect to it at all. I was so disappointed! I had to listen to it a couple of times, with discipline. and then the strands caught me and pulled me back in. I don't know what that was all about... I think the '90s killed something in me 😂
Anyway, I'm glad I pushed through it :-)
This was recorded in 2001- the Yes Symphonic Tour. Starship Trooper was recorded in 1970. That tells you a lot.
The whole of the Yes album is fabulous. Love this, and yes recorded late 1970/ released early 71. Album of the ages.
saw them in Montreal back in my 30's, and what I noticed that first time still holds true today, LIVE you can hear every single note of every single person on stage. This is a recording of a live performance any other band would kill to have this sound on a studio album. They are simply amazing.
When I went to the show everyone was "you are driving 18 hours 1-way to see YES?" Damn straight I am.
No other band has sounded as good as Yes for decades spanning. Anderson voice still sounds great and he's in his 70's, quite remarkable.
There are about 5 levels to Yes, Starship Trooper is level 3.(Brilliant), You are ready now for level 4 (Amazing) try "And You and I" next. Then go straight to Level 5 (Trancendant) with Close to the Edge. Then return to level 4 with Awaken or Heart of the Sunrise, Then go back to level 5 with Gates of Delirium. There's still plenty more level 4 after that.
You forgot level 6+ (In its own class) Tales from Topographic Oceans. At least I really got into that one and still think it is great.
I saw them..12 times. Classic line up ill never forget those concerts
Yes was a serious inspiration to my playing. I was a middle of the road rock guy, and then someone turned me onto YES. Chris Squire blew me away. He's such a musical bass player, so creative. I hit the woodshed and sat in my room for hours trying to learn his parts as close as I could. When I was younger, I could play quite a few of their songs, maybe not note for note, but pretty damn close. I got to see them in Atlanta on the Going For The One tour at the Omni. Me and a friend stalked them at the hotel and got autographs. Those were fun times. I later drifted off into Jazz Rock Fusion stuff, but YES still has a large room in my heart reserved for them. It's like Geddy Lee said, without YES, there would be no RUSH.
Excellent! I just checked my concert tix collection and I saw them in Dec. 1987, at the Montreal Forum, for $23.50. We certainly got our money's worth in those days!
Every song they do in the studio they can replicate live. Since ‘70. I’ve seen all but one tour, met them a lot. Such super guys. Jon knows he makes me nervous so he followed me around a record store once in the ‘90s. I was a dj for goodness sake, but couldn’t speak in his presence. I told him “ you’re my biggest fan”. He said “Yes Nancy I am”. I wanted to crawl under the counter I was so embarrassed. That’s when he started following me. LOL. I LOVE YES - for 45 years. And will forever. Chris’ playing can’t be touched, but I’ve become pals with Billy Sherwood, who Chris asked to take his place when he knew he was dying. I am, and have been very fortunate in my life. Thanks to Yes and their positive impact.
I love Yes! I grew up with their music in the 70's and early 80's. This Live version is a "little" lackluster in my humble opinion but good nonetheless! Check out "Roundabout"
I agree, I feel like I've seen better live performances of this song online, but I have DEFINITELY seen better versions in person.
Kevin, I would agree with that assessment. I was in Amsterdam during this 2 night gig, and I also saw the show in Chicago and Milwaukee Wisconsin. When I saw them in Chicago and Milwaukee during 2001 orchestra tour, it was much wilder and louder. When I saw the Amsterdam 2001 show, at the Heineken Music Hall, the largest indoor concert hall I have ever been in, had excellent acoustics but they played it so carefully with the European festival orchestra, and the sound was not as loud as it was here in America, sitting in the audience. Yes is my favorite band and always has been since the early 1970s when I was growing up. I have about 37 million live soundboard albums of their music and I have always felt that when bands play and know they are being recorded for an album or video or both, they tend to play a little bit too carefully. I think some of their best work was done when they were not being recorded, Radio shows being the exception. There are far more energetic versions of Starship Trooper out there. The whole concert in Amsterdam was a little bit quiet compared to the American tour.
YES - Endless Dream, from the Talk album. YES in the mid nineties, a great album that deserves more listens.
You really can't fully appreciate this band without seeing a live performance. I've seen Yes at least 30 different times and through different lineups. It's always been a magical experience seeing them live. Thanks for this video!
Bro, I first saw YES in 72 and Zep in 73. I loved LZ in terms of original brilliant funky bluesy Hardrock. BUT YES are simply otherworldly and PURE MAGIC!!!!! I agree no one compares to 70's YES and it's frustrating when people try to do so. There was NO ONE ELSE who took you to as many beautifully unexpected amazingly unpredictable & deeply emotionally uplifting places. They are the full box of delicious mixed desserts. And this lineup of members along with Mr. Bill Bruford (CTTE) and the rest of the 70's variations were YES at their most prolific peak
I saw them in a magical performance in Denver at Temple Buell Theater in 1997 and basically the whole audience stood for the entire concert and cheered wildly. 20 minutes after the concert when everyone was outside heading to their cars the cheering started again and went on for a considerable amount of time. I've seen them 10 times and that's not all that much compared to some of the fans. A Yesfan is almost always someone you're going to like and get along with. It's a state of mind.
If you want to see an awesome YES live performance you need to see something with Rick Wakeman on keyboards, he wasn't the player in this concert. Rick is considered by many to be the greatest rock keyboardist ever and he spent a good portion of his career with YES. Pretty much any of their live performances from Montreux 2003 are excellent.....Heart of the Sunrise is particularly good. IMO the whole performance has a lot more energy than this one does. Another good one is YES South Side of the Sky (live) which is uploaded by Jorgemeister......there's a great duel at the end between Steve Howe (guitar) and Rick .
Or alternatively check out his solo album ‘The Six Wives of Henry the Eighth . Classic performance of Catherine Parr on YT ruclips.net/video/80qazT7VQsI/видео.html check out the finger speed around 5.20
@@scifimonkey3 Rick's solo stuff is great. I was lucky enough to see him in 2019 on the 'Grumpy Old Rock Star' tour..... just Rick and a piano on stage. I really liked his version of Eleanor Rigby. There is an excellent example on Vimeo. vimeo.com/263230195
I've always said, Rick Wakeman is to keyboards as Neil Peart is to drums.
Indeed Rick Wakeman was an integral part of YES, its not YES without Wakeman, just my opinion. ( Keys To Ascention live album, incredible performance of Starship Trooper.
You know what they said:
Rick on the right hand, Keith on the left!
Saw them on the Union tour. ALL OF THEM. 2 DRUMMERS, 2 KEYBOARDISTS,2 GUITARISTS. In the round ,no opening act. 3hrs of overwhelming music. It set a level of excellence i haven't seen since.
Now you know me I am going to be direct.....when I first heard Yes on the radio in 1968 I was 14 at the time I had heard and fell in love with Three Dog Night, Blood Sweat & Tears(another group who masters of transitions), Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, The Rascals, Guess Who, Rush, and Steppenwolf...and Yes stole my soul away from them.....I mean the melodies and composition and musicianship of the songs just melted my heart....And I love these other groups...I did...and still do.....but edge of Yes is the spirituality and positivity they present in their music...and their albums along with their songs take you on this spiritual journey.....and they know they are taking on that journey. I have seen Yes in concert 4 times....I couldn't even explain to someone what I experienced I couldn't find the words....you know....Yes makes me cry in the concert. I get emotional!!! And I can't explain this.....unless you were one the people who were there. Yes is in a Class of their own for as Rock or Prog Rock. They raised the bar of excellence!!!! They are the gods of Progressive Rock!!!! There is a "live" version of "Close To The Edge" in concert...go to You Tube and find it. You won't regret it!!!
Yes and Rush are masters of the transition. Saw yes about a dozen times. You must look at Lift Me Up from the Union tour. The best of both Yes versions. Very underrated song.
Love the way Chris Squire used both his pick and thumb at the same time to play his bass parts. Can't think of anyone else outside of jazz who was so instantly recognisable by his style.
John Entwistle
That's how he got his unique sound
The older videos of YES are even better positively more mine blowing. Especially the stuff when Rick Wakeman’s is with them.
SEARCH: YES live at the rainbow theater 1972. Over an hour of live YES. You will never be the same.
Yeah, a lot of these reaction videos use more "recent" live stuff which ,with all due respect, do not show them at the height of their musicianship. They were unbelievable in the 70's ! Jon does sound pretty good here though.
Yes is probably the best Live Band you would ever see live!!! I have seen them hundreds of times and every time I have been at awe! Their execution is flawless, I have seen them play close to the Edge, Gates of Delirium, Awaken, and Ritual all in the same concert and play for 3,5 hours with intensity no other band have! Enjoy your ride! I suggest you react to South Side of the sky live at Tsongas
Yes is brilliant, I would never had been sitting for this performance!!!😲😜
One of my all rime favorite bands since I was around 12 in 1973!!!✌💙👍😎
One of the best reactions ever. The YES Album, Fragile, Close to the edge . Those 3 are the foundation the early seventies YES . Tales from Topographic oceans & Relayer Take you down the rabbit hole YES in the mid 70s They were at the top of there game They were absolutely stunning live. They are so ahead of their time some of these songs are more than 50 years old.
Before the song ends let me just say "You're Face Says It All" I cannot be happier that you decided to do this, and since I have not seen this performance after 50 years of listening,
my jaw was on the floor, like it has been since the first time I listened to YES, all those many years ago.
YES, "STARSHIP TROOPER ". ONE THE GREATNESS LIVE PERFORMANCE FOR BANDS SHOWING THE 70'S, MUSIC...GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS.. TOP TEN BAND OF ALL TIME ..
Of course this concert was recorded in Amsterdam Holland. I was in Amsterdam at the time and caught the first night of the 2 night show. I am American. I just wanted to comment about your excellent review regarding why the audience was not standing up in the middle of the song. The Dutch almost never do. The Dutch are a wonderful people and are extremely polite. Maybe too polite sometimes in concert halls. They rarely stand up until the until the song is over. Not always true for the smaller venues. It is just their way of showing respect. Here in America, we very often do stand up immediately when things get so wonderful. It is just a slight culture difference Wilburn. Believe me, the Dutch love Yes.
This was a really excellent live performance..., but it does not eclipse the spectacular brilliance of the studio version.
Gates of Delirium and Close to the edge, from the same concert. Enough said ❤️❤️
The great Steve Howe was voted "Best Guitarist" by Guitar Player Magazine FIVE years in a row! This band was full of virtuosos! I don't guess you've seen Rick Wakeman live, find some older stuff when Rick (keyboard wizard) was in the band!
It's been a while since I watched this, made me cry. This band were brilliant.
Believe me you're not the only one that cries 😂😂😂😂
YES BRO!!!! Its unfathomable what they do. You can't imagine what it was like to see them LIVE throughout my young life in the 70s. This tour was also INCREDIBLE. They still leave me SPEECHLESS & in 😢 PROFOUND TEARS! They were beyond music as we know it.
Musicians of the highest caliber. I’ve loved them for so long as a musician. Thank you!
Bill Bruford and Rick Wakeman would have been the cherry on top but I am not complaining, it is always a delight to listen to YES, they always deliver. 👍👍👍
I watched them in concert at Wembley Arena in the eighties and watching this video brought those happy memories back.
I was lucky enough to see YES in concert in Pittsburgh Pa. At that time their concert was in the round. Where the stage slowly moves around!😁👍♥️
Love your reactions!
Takes awesome band to be better live than recorded almost every time. Live is one shot! Studio you can overwork and overkill easily. This was just right and Chon as usual, little speechless after Yes. Don' t blame him, I am too. Natural reaction to excellence and greatness! Love CS in this one. Miss him a lot.
"Going for the one" is excellent! xo
And this is when they are old guys and without Rick Wakeman. Watch some live stuff from their 1973 Yessongs shows when they were young and in their prime, plus with Bill Bruford on drums (no offense to Alan White, but Bill is in his own class). Seeing Yessongs as a midnight movie in college was always an awesome event, and of course seeing them live was out of this world!
Peace from SF
This little gem usually closes most shows as an encore. AWESOME song!!
I remember always cranking the volume on the ending fade out on this one to hear every possible riff Steve was trading with himself, did not want that to end.
When you started this journey, you thought you could have ten personal best bands. I smiled. Now you have listened to enough to know how saturated we all were back in the day with superlative music...and music for every taste. These bands were not to everyone’s taste, but there was something for everyone and in every genre there were masters of the form. Yes was one of the masters of prog rock. Not my fav genre, but MAN I can appreciate their mastery, their skill, their creativity, their musicianship.
The musical bench is so deep, Chod, you have years of fun awaiting you. We lived through it and so had the advantage of absorbing it as it came out....it didn’t all come to us at once like you’re getting it.
Yes was so good live,saw them late 90’s…unbelievable technically and mastery at a high level.❤️🎼❤️🎶❤️
John Anderson sang to me once when in meet him. It was so beautiful. I used to take my dads albums when I was about two years old and play them in my tiny record player. I LOVE THEM.
I strongly recommend this dvd to all YES fans. SYMPHONIC LIVE from Amsterdam. Great show with an orchestra behind them. Also there is a surprise ending!
I cannot sit down during a Yes concert. You feel the music and gotta move. For me, every time since 76
its interesting seeing the sedate crowd and remembering seeing YES at the Cow Palace in the 70's-the crowd hardly sedate but yes, these are probably the same folks that were there and I'd likely be sedate now enjoying them in concert. I see many people commenting on Chris Squire and yes, he was mesmerizing in concert-his energy, his groove-he really drove the band. They rocked hard in concert playing the same songs from the albums but far more rocking and intense. They played "Im Down" by the Beatles -rocked it hard.
Seen Yes about 7 times. 4 of those 7 shows were simply magical on an indescribable level. Great reaction!
The drums, the bass, the guitar, the keyboards, the harmonies, the genius ... Yes!
One of the many great aspects of Yes is that they were never satisfied to repeat their album performances live and always bring something new to the songs. This is not a particular favorite version of Starship Trooper, but it still provides different insight from other versions.
Yes "Close to the edge" album, or
Yes "Live at Montreux jazz festival "
Amazing musicians!

Every Yes song is an experience.
Don't fret - you don't need to choose who is "best" between Led Zep, Yes, Floyd, etc. We're all blessed that they were ALL around, and are still being enjoyed to this day.
Wilburn, that was a kick-ass live performance by Yes here, dude, this absolutely was fantastic, especially with that small orchestra backing them up.......
I liked your reaction to this Yes classic (and there are many more from the early 70's). For Starship Tooper you selected to do a first reaction on a live version, congratulations on that. They are the best versions so you choose well. Others have picked the studio version on The Yes Album still a great song but I think it's a developmental version. The really best live version of this song is on the Yessongs triple LP, it is the last song or at 1: 59:18 on the digital version (yes that is 1 hr 58 mins 18 secs into Yessongs). That was the classic Yes line-up including Rick Wakeman. Do yourself a favor and check it out. Some of the live versions on Yessong are amazing how they produced that Yes soundscape live including Close to the Edge is a wonder. Thank you for your reaction and for venturing into the early to mid 70's era of music. Keep going you will find amazing talent there; Yes, ELP, Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, Deep Purple to name some.
My favorite band of all time!👍🏻❤️☮️
I paid $6.50 to see them in concert at the Baltimore Civic Center back in the mid 70s. I wouldn’t want to be a teenager again, but, DAMN the music was great, and affordable.
A band from the 60s ('68), performing in their 60s, and killing it.
When it comes to best groups, best songs, best live etc.....I can't pick. My number one is probably a 300 way tie. Great music is just that. Awesome!
Ladies and gentlemen Chris Squire and Yes the greatest show on earth.
Welcome back Chod, I see that trip down the rabbit hole of musical bliss left you totally in aw.
I could never sit during a Yes concert. I would just tell those behind me to stand up and have fun!! Still can’t sit LOL and I’m 63. Been seeing them since mid 70s
Thanks you. 1981 was my first show ….in the round. Thank you for getting it.
Chod’s face says it all ! 😎👏👍🔥💯
Great reaction.This is one of their best concerts they produced. Check out other songs from this concert. You will be amazed. Thank You.
In a top 5 list of the most mind blowing bands of all time, Yes would be in there.
I REALLY enjoyed this reaction!
Mostly because I knew what you were getting ready to see!
This is my old high school music and you have no idea the fun I get watching another generation love it! ☺
I first saw this in 2003, The next day I went to the Bass Centre in London and stated: “I want to learn to play bass - Rickenbacker bass - like Chris Squire of Yes. I have £300 in savings - is that enough for the Rickenbacker AND the amp, or do I need to come back for the amp when I’ve saved more?”
All I can say how good YES is and what they have meant in my lifetime.........I have seen them live 49 times. Nuff said.
There is sth very precious in your comments. I mean, a real value of your reaction/emotion. I've grown on this music repertoire and have satisfaction to say that I have been listening to exactly this and other prog pieces for over 27 years. Its moving to see that people around the world and in different age can appreciate the absolute classic values of musicanship and art. It turns out that Yes is eternal, like is every great art. You are right with Led Zepellin and with Pink Floyd. These Big Three is and will be very hard to pass : )) But a big news - there is so much more great bands... Greatings from Warsaw, Poland (Maciek, b. 1981)
You do an awesome job there my friend !
I know you already did a review of the song, but Awaken, live, will certainly blow your mind at how tight they play together.
The Yes Album, Fragile and Close To The Edge is a must listen and add to your music collection.
Worth it just to watch Chris Squire ham it up! Bands often speed up the tempo of songs when performing them live, but here they slow it down a bit, perhaps because they were slowing down themselves or because they were dragging along an orchestra behind them. Whatever the case, I liked it. The slightly slower pace gives some of the passages a bit of a Grateful Dead feel. I like that too!
Listen to "Close To The Edge" if you haven't yet. On your own or as a reaction. It's a beautiful adventure out of this world. I think many will agree here. It's 20 min long, but it's epic beyond anything I had ever heard. Best listen to the studio version. Never one dull moment.
I agree but think he should build up to Close to the Edge, maybe with And You and I first.
Close To The Edge is pure musical genius but I agree it needs to be built up to.
@@veganapiranha7365 Built up from what? CTTE is fairly accessable, surely to someone with a great ear for music.
@@stevedotwood It's nice to go up in steps, cause it just keeps getting better. But then again, I would like to see the reaction soon.
@@stevedotwood Oh clearly it's not over his head, just that he might want to hear some more of their catalogue first. Just an opinion.
Thanks!! One of my many favorites, and the best live version I've seen!!
Close to the Edge is a long one, but it’s simply MIND BLOWING
...and incidentally, Yes, Led Zepp, and Pink Floyd were constantly taking turns at being my favorite acts. You eventually come to the point where you give up on having a favorite, because each group IS the best at what they do. They each had very different styles, different vibes, stellar guitarists, bass players, drummers singers keyboards and vocals. It’s like you put it Chod, EACH deserve their OWN bubbles!
I've seen them over 20 times and they always put on a amazing show!
Big Yes fan. Big Early Genesis fan, too. Early Genesis were also very good at transitions. Check out Firth of Fifth (studio version).
One Word, "BRILLIANT"
Enough Said !!!
I think it is always best to hear the studio recording first. This is a petty good live recording, the critical part is the interplay of bass and lead guitar in the long final part called 'wurm'. I'm glad you appreciate Yes!
Congratulations you are now a full member of the treehouse club. Welcome, welcome welcome my friend. I look forward to seeing you at the next monthly meeting. Btw this is a fairly tepid live performance by this band.
There are tons of better ones out there on RUclips. Btw I saw YES live
In the round at MSG in 1980 when I was a college student. Every song was flawless. Keyboardist rick wakeman was on fire. Jon Anderson sang like an angel. I have no adjectives to describe what Steve howe did on the fretboard because no earthly words would be sufficient 😊🎼🎵🎶🎵❤
I love the YES, there is another great 70's prog band out there called Gentle Giant, maybe the album "The Power and the Glory".
I think you might enjoy that.
Finally Chris gets the camera attention he so massively deserves! RIP you monster.
When the Yes Album came out I was at University and was reading the Lord of the Rings for the first time. This track in my head is the accompaniment to the Ride of the Rohirim as they ride down to the relief of Minas Tirith in slow motion. Peter Jackson missed a trick!
My face hurts from smiling watching this again- Jon Anderson’s voice is like an angel- and when he harmonized with Chris Squire it was on another level- and speaking of Squire, RIP- he and Alan White could lay down the driving force behind all their music but Squire could also play that bass like a lead- adding to Steve Howe’s acoustic and electric guitar work- this was a great show but I still say you should check out this song from the Jazz Fest Lugano Switzerland 2004- the original keyboardist Rick Wakeman was there. And if you like live shows with an orchestra, check out Moody Blues- they also could rock your ass off but with class.... thanks my friend....
