I remember buying Tales...in 1980. At the time I was 18 and had listened Yes since 1972. I also remember I knew very few of English by then. so the lyrics impressed in the album were absolutely useless for me. However, I got emotioned when listened tghis masterpiece, especially The Remembering and Ritual. I always wept with this last song,mainly at the end (and still do), which I think is magnificent. I never saw Yes, one of my favourites bands ever. But in 2013 I was glad and fortunate to see Jon Anderson in Mar del Plata, the city I live in. By that time I got to the conclusion that all aI cycle had been completed in my life. Music is so universal, you know. It´s the most universal of languages, and it's far from words.. Thaks for uploading it, and many thanks for all the music Yes has given us.
Amazing, awesome unique. My very best of YES. Even after decades I still got goosebumps when listening to that masterpiece that lasts forever! "Stand on hills of long forgotten yesterdays Pass amongst your memories told returning ways As certain as we walk today Press over moments leaving you"
Haven't listened to any Yes since Chris left us, after a whole lifetime of the joy of Yes, nothing will ever come close for me, the band was always, for me, the most creative, innovative, unusual, pioneering... There is a unique love there that only Yes fans can understand, only love ever came across from their musical palette, so glad to be one of the lucky people who knew and got to see Chris play in the band he loved so much. Never big-headed but when he played... More than a little emotional listening to this! Best wishes and Love to Yes fans the world over!
Holds a special place in my heart. From the childlike carnival music in the beginning to the washed-out pastel synth colorations at the end -- Jon Anderson at his most mystical and high-flown.
@@maxwellfan55 Do you also feel this way about "Awaken"? It's long been a favorite for me... in what I believe to be similar ways to what you've described... but I love this as well. The Mellotron is so effective (along with ALL the music, o'course...)!
"Discovered" Yes when they made The Yes Album and have loved the fusion of real musicianship on vinyl ever since. Saw them at the NEC having their reunion concert. I wish we could see their like again. Wonderful having it on RUclips!
Bought this after previously purchasing The Yes Album and Fragile in 72. I had no idea they had a new album out. I saw the cover and it blew me away. Then I went by a friend's house and we played it. Instantly knew I loved this and my friend became an instant Yes fan. Still my favorite album and music of my life.
I remember how mesmerized I felt the first time I played this album, this piece in particular, I loved singing along and replay until I got the perfect intonation. This was back in the mid 70s when I was 17 and I still remember it as if it was yesterday!
Greatest soundscapes you'll ever hear and then you get the around 13:10 and Alan white and Chris Squire just break it down into a awesome groove. Absolutely brilliant. One of the greatest meditative masterpieces of music you ever will hear! Listening to this album really brings you to a higher plane in your mind, It cordially invites you to your left hemisphere. Actually tell people to listen to this album and this song in particular if there in a really bad place And they want to ascend To a more Conscious state of positive awareness. Brilliant keyboard work by Rick Wakeman. Steve Howe so eloquently plots his way through this song. No band puts forth the depth of a mind and body exp that even come close to doing what they did on this album and their next album relayer with gates of delirium sound chaser in to be over, which brings your state of mind to a darker realm.. had Patrick moraz on keyboards........killer on the keys
I remember the first Yes album I ever heard was " Going for the One" . I thought what the he'll is this noise? Within 3 months I had every Yes Album and I've seen them. Thankfully.
I think most listeners do not realize how hard squire howe and white rock on certain passages ... relayer is a logical step, with or without wakeman. The music here is, for me, the finest ever recorder.
vzqk50CL !!! You have no less than an EPIC rendering of this awesome Yes tune, Dude!! (if you ARE male?) This is totally blowing me away in that it is SOOOOO GOOD! I'm ready to suggest that this combination of your video to Yes' excellent rendition of "ways to SEE" life {"...the strength of the SEEING lies with you!"} just 'may be' a pineal gland decalcifying tool !! AWESOME JOB vzqk !!!
M very favorite track from the "Tales" album. Wonder why they passed this over when choosing to play "Ritual" during the Patrick Moraz years and later in the 90's choosing to play "Revealing Science" with the Wakeman reunion. Certainly the most beautiful track from the album I think....
who were kind enough to take a few of us lost souls with them on their honeymoon!!!!! then, in later years, i heard Fragile and Close to the Edge, and 90125, but never did get to this album....but i did get well acquainted with Yogananda along the way..so this was quite a nice surprise, to put it mildly....
By far, "Tales" was their most sublime work. It captured perfectly the spirit of the "East-West Religious Movement" of the early 1970's. In my view, this side, "The Remembering" holds up the best. .... I'll bet Ram Dass enjoyed this album.
Something has apparently changed here. I feel that the comment I made above wasn't about THIS video rendering as I don't see what is /was so striking now? Could I have made this excited statement about a different video?
Does anyone know how to reach Roxi Cook? She probably still has her California tags: Yssng. Mine were SNDCHSR. I want those tags back. too late. I might have kept one prior to selling that car.somewhere in storage along with all sorts of stuff that I want back.
someone will come to offer the world an alternate view of life and our relationship to one another, and set the course for a better, more peaceful future
They were never an ordinary english rock'n' roll band. And each one of them were unique. I think they were influenced by what europe would call an Eastern European sound ( such as the band; ELP)
This is the best album, ever, by anyone.
No it's not - The Ladder is
@@Kwinquark1 wrong....
Literaly the soundtrack of Heaven. Thank you and well done.

I love entire album ! This is an awesome band. { YES ) Sir Rob a faithful Knight serving Lord Jesus !
Amazing, awesome unique. My very best of YES. Even after decades I still got goosebumps when listening to that masterpiece that lasts forever! "Stand on hills of long forgotten yesterdays
Pass amongst your memories told returning ways
As certain as we walk today
Press over moments leaving you"
this is so pure it makes me shed tears of Rejoice.
Never has a piece of music held my attention throughout as this...almost like being meditation! Amazing
This one really grows on you after a while... "Like a dreamer, all our lives are only lost begotten changes".
Ø TFTO grew on all of us eventually...brilliant music from my childhood.
The vocals and harmonies in this Beautiful Epic are some of the best that YES have ever done, in my opinion!!!
Esta pieza es una de las obras de arte más majestuosas de la historia de la musica.
Armando from Mérida, Mexico.
A superb video which fantastically compliments this beautiful 2nd Movement of Tales from Topographic Oceans.
I have seen Yes here but I cannot wait till Jon becomes one of the Heavenly Host. Jon you are an Angel.You are LIGHT!

The bass guitar sounds so full its amazing
Chris Squire will always be my favorite progrock bass musician
Holds a special place in my heart. From the childlike carnival music in the beginning to the washed-out pastel synth colorations at the end -- Jon Anderson at his most mystical and high-flown.
Topographic oceans is such an understatement to Yes's musical goal. I think this is my favorite Yes song ever.
Well put. The music is still there for those with perception and not just quick gain.
Me too.

WOW !!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️✨🇮🇸🇮🇸
this song touches my being,
So it only took me 50 years to fall in love with this album if ever there was a way to be wanted this was one,
first 3 minutes are epic music making
There is so much illusion on Earth. But there is "Yes"!

Amen to that!!!!

I remember. I bought it as soon as I could then.
Wowww °°°!!!! I love this song !! :D
HAPPY 68th BIRTHDAY TO JON ANDERSON!!!! HIGH THE MEMORY CARRY ON!!!!!!
as beautiful, zanies, as the very day (bless it's heart) is long
Thanks!
This is the musical version of a beautiful prayer.
vzq, you do so nice with these collections of sound.
to me one of the best Yes songs ever!
Dave Gushi at one time this band was touched by GOD and Anderson his singing angel told us of things we could not see yet they were all around us
I think most listeners do not realize how hard squire howe and white rock on certain passages ... relayer is a logical step, with or without wakeman.
The music here is, for me, the finest ever recorder.
The song is deeply veiled in esoteric lore.

4:36 - It's like walking in the wilderness
yes is the best name for this band. that's just what one says when they can hear them. "yes"
wow
I was just imagining if our planet survives and in several years we could enjoy holographic yes concerts in our living rooms.
who were kind enough to take a few of us lost souls with them on their honeymoon!!!!! then, in later years, i heard Fragile and Close to the Edge, and 90125, but never did get to this album....but i did get well acquainted with Yogananda along the way..so this was quite a nice surprise, to put it mildly....
the amount of times i went "whoa" while listening to it in public for the first time is staggering
By far, "Tales" was their most sublime work. It captured perfectly the spirit of the "East-West Religious Movement" of the early 1970's. In my view, this side, "The Remembering" holds up the best. .... I'll bet Ram Dass enjoyed this album.
magnifico
Thanks
vzqk50CL the
I hope when I die the first thing I here is this song.
Lisa Zinn I believe that when we die we do hear something similar to Yesmusic.
Chris Squire plays fretless bass on this.
Topographic Oceans seemed a bit over the top at the time ,,,,,,, But now i can appreciate this album being as good as it is ,
Relayeeeeer!
True
Coming soon on my HD channel in 320k HQ Audio. About 50% done now. Hope to be done in the next week or so.
yes
Something has apparently changed here. I feel that the comment I made above wasn't about THIS video rendering as I don't see what is /was so striking now? Could I have made this excited statement about a different video?
yea man💡💡💡💡
There is no mono mix of this album. It was only mixed in stereo.
Does anyone know how to reach Roxi Cook? She probably still has her California tags: Yssng. Mine were SNDCHSR. I want those tags back. too late. I might have kept one prior to selling that car.somewhere in storage along with all sorts of stuff that I want back.
and god says yes
Thanks to Jon Anderson and Steve Howe for being brave enough to put this music on record... as we now know it
It's in mono! Could you please upload again in STEREO?
someone will come to offer the world an alternate view of life and our relationship to one another, and set the course for a better, more peaceful future
The lyric is Force the bit between the mouth of freedom didnt "WE" learn to fly, You left out the we..
Tim Follin brought me here.
Pura estasi.
Fail safe now
surely, surely ..............
1973
Wow, the audio on this is awful. Guys, please buy the CD/LP or stream it.
I see god
@ytemsg- Jesus would most definitely say yes
