Yes, Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Who, The Moody Blues and others...musical masters from the "Kingdom" and a magical time called the 70's!!!! Each one of them unique in style. Happy to have lived it!!!
Laurie Gadd-Mccabe ---- I can remember in the spring & summer of 72' I was 15 & playing this 45 over & over again, I almost wore it out with the other 45's like "A Horse With No Name"... & other's.
Those were the days my friends "we thought they would never end".....When you would hear this song first thing in the morning it would make your whole day better...know what I mean
@@TheHSIHP You missed most of it, but you are here now and that's what counts....Driving to high school in the morning and songs like this would come on the radio and it would set your entire day in motion....
Oh, timelessly brilliant!!! I don't think I've ever seen a supporting orchestra have so much fun participating! Just smashing! We are SO SO fortunate to have lived through these greatest eras of musicians! Be still my heart!
Do yourself a favor, and find Tommy Shaw (Styx) with the Contemporary Youth Orchestra. Fooling Yourself, and Renegade will bring you to tears. The kids are awesome!
Ifn you haven’t seen it yet PBS has a documentary called, Patrick and the whale. I was ohmygosh impressed. There is a part that will blow your mind as a whale lover. Me I’m just a flora and fauna lover, specially all the air breathing ocean dwellers;)
Jaw-dropping. Jon's voice is as good as ever. Love how happy everyone is - the band, the crowd and the backup musicians - singing and clapping along. If this doesn't put a smile on your face you're in bad shape.
Damn I promised myself I wasn’t going to cry playing this for the millionth time but tears are flowing like Niagara Falls. It’s songs like these groups like yes that made music well worth my lifetime
If someone told me in 1971 I'd be seeing these guys again in 40+ years and 'they'll be just as good' I'd probaby have said 'you're crazy, man. This was INCREDIBLE..
Nov. 1971...a small college in central Florida...outdoors under spreading Live Oak trees & Spanish Moss...unbelievable performance...70 years old now and moved to tears each and every time I listen to them...
The platinum voice of Jon Anderson, the exquisite guitar of Steve Howe and the majestic bass work of Chris Squire. Simply amazing. And this masterpiece of a song. Using chess as a metaphor for personal relationships...brilliant.
I was a musician in a high school orchestra in the early 70's. Yes was considered progressive rock that I really enjoyed listening to on an LP. Time came when they toured the southwest US. Music, as I knew it, and my appreciation for outstanding performances changed that evening. I've since seen them several times in several states. I am so grateful to have been there to join in what is perhaps the greatest generation of music the world has seen.
I haven't hear Yes in years. I saw them live with my friend Debbie at Nassau Coliseum on Long Island so long ago. Memories. I'm 67 years old. I feel like I'm 19 again. The band takes me now and back then to some beautiful places in my mind. What a gift they bring to me. Their musicianship is superb. What a beautiful place I am in right now.
I'm so jealous! I was only like four or five years old when The Yes Album came out, but my older brother had the album, and I listened to it over and over again. Thank God he and my mom liked rock music, so I was blessed to listen to that genre growing up. Thus, I was way too young to attend a Yes concert, and that makes me sad. The music from the 1960's and 1970's is SO superior to the crapulous stuff today's young people listen to, and they should check out the old stuff. They'll be glad they did. 🥰
I worked the Artists Entrance at HOB for 15 years. Chris was my friend. Whenever they came , it was like old home week, and we spent hours on the loading dock discussing many things, and I miss Him. When I first started listening to them, I would never have even thought I would become a familiar face and a friend to one of my favorite bands! Yes, life can be strange, yet wonderful!
Much love for you on that personal brush you have with someone who seemed so much to be a great human being on the single time I met him. Bless you and RIP Chris.... You are missed.....
Yes, Jethro Tull, ELP, Genesis, etc. What a great era for music that I was blessed to grow up in. I'm not sure that the current generation will ever fully appreciate it or understand the depth of it.
Well, I'm just a tad too young to have been there so to speak but I still appreciate it and have been a fan of Yes and other prog rock(including the bands you mentioned) for over 30 years.
Eventhough I was born jn 1981, but I really like the fine auditorial arts of Genesis dan YES. They had managed a giant leap for music world, as art entertainment and industry.
@@mikereiss4216 Must be a little tough for you to read all the bragging of the old heads about their era. I'm 65 and love YES, but there's no need to brag, like not understanding the depth of it, as one said. Great music will always be recognized by some. And that of this era, whether it be My Morning Jacket, The War on Drugs,, or Jenny Lewis among others.
Sir Chris Squire (bassist/vocals & founder of YES) was a major influence in my bass playing career!!!...the electric bass industry has lost an icon bass player but will never be forgotten cause his music & memories will live on 4EVeR!...Rest 'n Peace bro'r Chris...!
When I listen to Yes I close my eyes, and I'm taken to a place I cant describe. It's my own heaven is all I can say. To watch these guys make this music is a privilege. I cant call myself a guitarist after I watch Steve Howe. Steve Wow.
Steve Howe could make a kite string sound ethereal. Best player of this style, hands down. Clapton and Page for blues, Santana for Latin, and Howe for Prog.
To me YES will always be the best rock band of all time. What incredible talent. Chris RIP. You are missed but will always be remembered in our hearts.
Hey all you trolls! you want to see or hear Yes live? suck it up and realize you can have nothing or accept change! we all like or hate it. This brought tears to my eyes not just because of the song but because of the crowd response. I love live music and know from the start it's not going to be like the original but if you're in the spirit of the moment, nothing can change that!!
The band has been using autotune since the ‘70s, you can hear it in other videos (whether it’s post or live, I don’t know). This sounds like autotune to me.
One thing missing, Rick Wakeman. He came back into the fold (again) not too long after this. Hard to believe that it has been 5 years since Chris Squire's passing.
My friend and I bought this album 1 each after listening to it on headphones in the music shop when we 16 years old. What a treat! Have been to many concerts. Treated to
I haven’t very often seen so many people truly enjoying themselves like this. Love the way the orchestra gets into it. I’ve got an ear to ear smile going on here. Pure joy!
My first time ever hearing this song by YES was about 1979? Still my favorite. Johns’ voice is ethereal, otherworldly, so special! If you listen closely, the bass player and guitarists are rare gems also.
I saw Yes in concert at Music Hall in Cincinnati like a gazillion years ago. I was honored to be a part of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. Seeing this group performing along with the young musicians just brought it all home for me.
What a great piece of music..... never to be replicated again....im so glad to be born in 57 and had this to listen to instead of the crap today.....either you got or you dont.....YES had/has it.
Yes, my son, Craig, 35, always says that we were so very lucky. And we were. Not only was/ is great music, it had many positive aspects- social gatherings, better all-around feeling in country, belief in +ve future, etc, apart from 1 or 2 strikes , Vietnam, cold War. But, this music, in my opinion, laid a layer of hope, positivity, government, and many more. Just a better society. Mind u I left 70's still in my teens. Praps, there's a modicum of halcyon retrospect. Woukd still go back, in a jiffy!!
This songs totally captures an inner source of energy that is pure love... You feel it from the very first musical note as well as his voice... It captures you... I was in high school back in the early seventies when I first heard this song and it moves me as it did then... Everlasting...!
Well said Edison. The first 3 1/2 minutes are like electricity coursing through my bones. Lived my high school years through the mid 70's, it me moves me now as it did then. Peace from Canada.
@@edisonmosleyii1300lol.. Well look me up. Born and raised in Toronto, now living in a small town a half hour away. Funny that you're from Cleveland, i've been on a six week listening jag to a youth orchestra from your town. Type in CYO Tommy Shaw, they do a great version of "Angry young man". There's also a version of "I've seen all good people" with Jon Anderson.
Would have loved to have been there. The audience did not know it at the time but they saw magic. Thank you YES for sharing your amazing talent with the world.......we are all humbled.
Another track that is timeless and reminiscent of a period that had so much good music, I didn't realize it at the time. Memories,,, dammm life has been good to me.
David M Sorry for the ignorance guys, l love this band, but was Squire also the lead sing with the blonde hair back in the 70's??? They truly are epic. I'm a hard rock singer & have always enjoyed melodic bands like this such as Chilliwack, Aprilwine, Heart. Now I'm totally into Evanescence. Rock on brothers. :D
Man.... JUST SIMPLY AMAZING SEEING THIS GREAT BAND OF MY YOUTH PLAYING LIVE AND BEING WATCHED BY MILLIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD!!! F A N T A S T I C !!! BEAUTIFUL!!!
@@660reliant I don't really remember how much the tickets were Joe but I saw them at the Fillmore East in NYC , but what I'll never forget about that show, was that Jethro Tull was headlining and Yes was the opening act, and if you remember how the concerts were back then everybody started yelling "We want Tull" Yes opened up with Roundabout, and being a musician myself, I turned to my friend and said " Man...Tull better be good, because these guys are incredible", they weren't really that well known yet. Tull was good that night, but to me Yes stole the show, I'm a harmony guy who loves great vocals and they sure had them. They don't make music like that anymore. Shame
This is a great live 2002 performance of Yes's hit with Chris Squire (R.I.P.) on bass. The vibe in the audience is pretty much what I experienced a couple of years back at their State Theatre concert in Sydney.
I think this is the best live version, and the two girls in the orchestra with the black hair,at 0:55 and at 3:10 are pure joy, and the guy at 2:00 in the audience just captures it !
Imagine just imagine for a second the feeling you would feel being the only one singing and everyone clapping to a huge crowd seeing everyone sing along and standing up. How awesome would that be. Jon’s used to it probably but I bet he’s loves it everytime. Yes is one of a kind band. So special it must have been awesome to be there live
Brings back so many memories. I saw Yes at Bayfront Arena back in the early 70’s. There will never be another age when there were so many gifted bands gifted upon us.
I loved Yes and I spray painted my interpretation of the Close to the Edge album cover on my entire bedroom wall in the 70s in Scotland. I also did the same on my motorcycle crash helmet a couple of years later. I went on to become a professional helmet painter for racing drivers all the way up to Formula 1.
"The Yes Album" is a virtual masterpiece. These guys are older than dirt, but they still sound every bit as good as they did back in the 1970's. Sadly, bassist Chris Squire and drummer Alan White have passed on to the great rock 'n roll Heaven. Lead singer Jon Anderson, along with lead guitarist Steve Howe, are still alive and kicking. Jon Anderson's voice remains perfection.

You’re not right in the head
its so glorious to realize that he isn't autotuned at all and is completely capable of hitting each note dead on :D
I detest autotune. I would absolutely rather hear reality, even it's "imperfection" of perfection.
There’s absolutely a tuning effect on his voice in this video. Could be post or even live

One of the greatest if not the greatest progressive rock bands in the history of the world.
youve got it110% right.......
One of the greatest songs ever, from one of the greatest bands ever. And that base: it turned me on when I was 18, and still does 42 years later!
David M what do you expect from a bass-god like chris squire,anything less.
David M Sorry for the ignorance guys, l love this band, but was Squire also the lead sing with the blonde hair back in the 70's??? They truly are epic. I'm a hard rock singer & have always enjoyed melodic bands like this such as Chilliwack, Aprilwine, Heart. Now I'm totally into Evanescence. Rock on brothers. :D
Saw them in the round in Denver/boulder in the early eighties. Best. Concert. Ever. And I've seen a few! 😘😘😘
So Great to see those kids in the Orchestra digging and participating!
Steve Howe is the greatest living guitarist - one of the most amazingly articulate and powerful sounds I have ever seen or heard.
no. lol
He’s definitely one of them
Appreciate any guitarist that brings a dozen guitars to every show. Need I say my favorite
lots of musicians fill in for yes, but its never yes unless Jon Anderson songs... love this band!
Man.... JUST SIMPLY AMAZING SEEING THIS GREAT BAND OF MY YOUTH PLAYING LIVE AND BEING WATCHED BY MILLIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD!!! F A N T A S T I C !!! BEAUTIFUL!!!
Wowwwwwwww Great YES Concert with such positive energy!!!!!
Crowd won't let them leave, beautiful!
I got to see them in their "Union" tour. That was the best of the classic Yes and the 90125 band. What a concert!!! Blown! Away!
Saw YES in the round at McNichols arena in Denver back in the 70’s. Still one of the best live concerts I’ve ever witnessed.
It's incredible that I sat fairly close to the stage in 1971 and saw these guys with "Tull" Imagine that! Peace
Tickets were probably $6.50?
@@660reliant I don't really remember how much the tickets were Joe but I saw them at the Fillmore East in NYC , but what I'll never forget about that show, was that Jethro Tull was headlining and Yes was the opening act, and if you remember how the concerts were back then everybody started yelling "We want Tull" Yes opened up with Roundabout, and being a musician myself, I turned to my friend and said " Man...Tull better be good, because these guys are incredible", they weren't really that well known yet. Tull was good that night, but to me Yes stole the show, I'm a harmony guy who loves great vocals and they sure had them. They don't make music like that anymore. Shame
Me too 1971 Wildwood NJ
This is a great live 2002 performance of Yes's hit with Chris Squire (R.I.P.) on bass. The vibe in the audience is pretty much what I experienced a couple of years back at their State Theatre concert in Sydney.
I think this is the best live version, and the two girls in the orchestra with the black hair,at 0:55 and at 3:10 are pure joy, and the guy at 2:00 in the audience just captures it !
What a band, never to be repeated x
And the orchestra just loves it too, of course they do. And what a beautiful instrument Steve Howe is playing.
Imagine just imagine for a second the feeling you would feel being the only one singing and everyone clapping to a huge crowd seeing everyone sing along and standing up. How awesome would that be. Jon’s used to it probably but I bet he’s loves it everytime. Yes is one of a kind band. So special it must have been awesome to be there live
Pure genius and music that never ages. Absolutely beautiful.
R.I.P BassMeister!!!...you and James Jamerson will do some excellent jams in the other dimension.
i cant say enough about Jon Anderson, no matter who he teams with it sounds great! love these guys!
Loving clip of "I've Seen All Good People"....fabulous band to celebrate! :D
His voice always seemed to amaze!!!
When i first heard Yes back in the day. College days. We wore the Yes Album out. Great days.
The best version of this song in my opinion.
Absolutely
I agree
He has such a beautiful voice.. when He feels like it... !
Brings back so many memories. I saw Yes at Bayfront Arena back in the early 70’s. There will never be another age when there were so many gifted bands gifted upon us.
I loved Yes and I spray painted my interpretation of the Close to the Edge album cover on my entire bedroom wall in the 70s in Scotland. I also did the same on my motorcycle crash helmet a couple of years later. I went on to become a professional helmet painter for racing drivers all the way up to Formula 1.
Let us never ever lose the appreciation for the pursuit of excellence. Thank you Yes, for demonstrating how that shows up.
Memories, Yes I made it to my sixties! ROCK OUT AND KEEP IT GOING!!
The sound their harmony makes is unforgettable and will reverberate for centuries.
"The Yes Album" is a virtual masterpiece. These guys are older than dirt, but they still sound every bit as good as they did back in the 1970's. Sadly, bassist Chris Squire and drummer Alan White have passed on to the great rock 'n roll Heaven. Lead singer Jon Anderson, along with lead guitarist Steve Howe, are still alive and kicking. Jon Anderson's voice remains perfection.
