Could be Yes' most excellent song .. next to The Remembering , and like that song , never easy to pull off live ... This version is very well done .. except for the flubs in the lyrics ( which seems to be so common .. Anderson did it quite often ) and the keys seemed to be too low . With all the complaints this lineup has garnered ... this is refreshing . It's obvious Steve loves this song and admittedly I was swept away at this version kind of like never before .
I think Steve's birthday is April 8th. Being as I will probably forgot to comment here. Happy 77th Steve when we get there in two weeks!!! You are an inspiration and godsend.
I am a high school student in Japan and I love YES. I can't see the members who are already gone, such as Chris Squire, or Yes what it used to in person. But I am happy enough to see them live.♪🎸
Yeah! Or should I say Yes! I swear last time I saw them, probably late 90s, MSG in NY, they did this and when he did the outro bit where he kind of ends it alone with that exquisite cadence, he hit that last run and looked up at all of us like he was surprised and delighted. On a side note first time was Going For The One at MSG. It was utterly astounding seeing Siberian Khatru and Close To The Edge played live for the first time. Not to mention Awaken. I saw Tormato twice, imho an underrated work. Drama, 90125 (both MSG), Union and ABWH wrapped it up for me. So that's 7 I think. Genesis was 8. I can name every album and venue.
Nice. Jon sounds a little out of key at times. Steve seems frustrated with the sound management in live performances. He's always gesticulating at someone off stage. But, that's a perfectionist for you. Great guitarist, and I'm glad to see these guys still at it after all of these years, keeping the music alive.
Jon Davison has a great vocal timbre and very close to the original sound. But yeah, pitch control not nearly as good as the original Jon. I think people underestimate how much skill it takes to be as on pitch as Jon Anderson live. Few can match him.
Of the two official covers of Yes, Band of Geeks is far more convincing. Jon Anderson still sings, and well, and the band rocks. Howe was a great guitar player,and Davidson fails IMHO as Anderson copycat. Would be better to sing with his own voice.
The Band, that play with Jon Anderson! Sound much better Than this!!! But... The "Yes Ego Fights" has been, since 1964!!! One more... Is Game of "Grand Fathers"... 😅 There's "Bill Bruford" 😮, "Tony Kay" 😮 "Jon Anderson" & "Steve Howe" Original Line - UP 😮 that recorded... "You're is no disgrace" 😮... And "Trevor Rabin"... Lead Guitar on "Owner of a lonely heart"... So? Act as Big Men!!! Not as Children 😢 And "Make a Reunión Band" 😮 Again... You don't have much time!!!!! As "Mick Jagger" Sings..."This could be the Last time"...Maybe The last time 😮 I don't wanna know 😢
As a life long Yes fan I find this very depressing. This is like a bad tribute band. I have much respect for Steve Howe but if this is best they can offer dont bother.
I don' t understand how musicians of band Yes can play their music with grumpy and unhappy Steve Howe all the time something demanding with his gesticulations, face expressions and anger. It seems it s regular thing on Yes concerts when there are some mistakes done just because of that unrelaxed way of playing music. I follow Yes since 1976 but this is not so pleasant to see on stage.
More like its staged. I've seen this set twice. The year before squire passed and then in 16 when White was sick. Jon couldn't carry it then and he still has vocal issues. Anderson needs to return as well as Wakeman or his son.
@@cmichaelanthonyimages2197 : No. There are more concerts i saw about S.Howe epics. He want to control the band to perfectionism. I know on one concert the drummer ( Not Alan White) started playing the song "Onward" too fast. Steve was out of his mind and very upset.
@@TheBluesman511 Thats Jay Schellen. Saw them in 16 and he was sitting in for White. They played Ritual and he was just so off. Thats when I said no more Yes concerts. Thank good for my Yes lib and Spotify.
This is not YES. Easy to manage because the members don't say anything except yes sir. It can't be YES without Jon Anderson, YES isn't only Howe. He should be more honest and don't use the group name but another like Steve Howe's Band
Sorry to be the one to break this to you but there have been a myriad of lineups that have performed under the band named YES. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Yes_band_members Jon Anderson wouldn't deny the facts he wasn't on every YES album ever recorded nor in every incarnation of the band. On the other hand, Chris Squire was the only player in every incarnation of YES up until his passing so that change was unavoidable out of necessary reality. But good luck with your notions about monolithic band lineups and getting Steve Howe, Jon Davison, Geoff Downes, et al, to conform to your thoughts on how their professional career should proceed.
@@HasinaiManIt is not necessary for you to come and compile statistics on former YES members. The reality is that for almost all of the band's followers, without Jon there is no YES. We don't like clones ha ha ha

What is so difficult to have Jon Anderson back in the team? For Christ's sake.
Maybe because he doesn’t want to be involved?
@@emmanuel0099 What?
@@emmanuel0099 telling us youre not listening without yelling am out of the loop
However doesn’t want him back. Too bad because Davison sucks.
This is bootleg Yes. Zero original members.
Excellent.
Unterirdisch😢😢😢
lol Steve was always conducting onstage. Anderson too. you hear distortion, you let your crew know - - and volia noise goes away
I wish the offspring of yes made a future version of yes to carry on the banner
Steve always looks like he surprised himself.😁
Yeah! Or should I say Yes!

@@RaelNYC I was lucky to see them live once, around 2005. It was great , especialy Minddrive. Not much played I believe...
A voz...
yeah Davison was doing fine there for a few years
Like others said, this is definitely not Yes. I want Trevor and Jon to come back.
Nice. Jon sounds a little out of key at times. Steve seems frustrated with the sound management in live performances. He's always gesticulating at someone off stage.

Because he is like on egg shells next to grumpy Steve Howe.
That's because he's the wrong Jon
this is getting to be half of a YES tribute band at this point
Mittelmäßiger Gitarrist😢😢

Right on. Don't try to copy just use something new. You can't replace Jon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Steve Howe and Friends. Not YES
Not Yes without Anderson.........
The Band, that play with Jon Anderson! Sound much better Than this!!! But... The "Yes Ego Fights" has been, since 1964!!!
One more... Is Game of "Grand
Fathers"... 😅 There's "Bill Bruford" 😮, "Tony Kay" 😮

And "Make a Reunión Band" 😮
Again... You don't have much time!!!!! As "Mick Jagger" Sings..."This could be the Last time"...Maybe The last time

Was für furchtbare Sachen spielt denn der Keyboarder😢😢😢

lol Steve was always a demon onstage. its a good thing
Ich stimme 100% zu
The singer is off. Flat in many places.

同感です！イエスはジョンとクリス無しでは、イエスとなのるべきでない！😢
@@babo0408 yes like the holy trinity: Howe, Anderson and Wakeman. Howe's bamd isn't enough 😁😁😁
It was Jons choice for a long time that he don't wann to make concerts. The other members are not amused about that. He is a very dificult Charakter.
