I was born in 1958 and I feel so damn lucky and blessed to have grown up with all these great bands... I can't even put into words how grateful I am. So I'll say it here, thanks to all those guys, geniuses every one be it Yes, Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Stones, Who, U2...god damn it's a long list, too long for this place. I'll never take this amazing music laden gift of a lifetime for granted and will go to my grave thanking my lucky stars each and every day for all that these artists have given us.

@a2ndopynyn

2 жыл бұрын

Wakeman has said that they all mostly got along on this tour. Squire was always a very self-involved person - it's the main reason Bruford left - and Howe has never quite gotten over the fact that Rabin wrote and played on YES' most successful song, which of course eclipsed Howe's own _Roundabout,_ the song which previously held that honor. And when players of that caliber get together, squabbles are unavoidable. But the music is what drew them all together, so whenever they were on stage it was time for them to reap the reward of all the time they spent having friction with each other. Led Zep was actually an oddity, in that they were a great band full of great musicians who all got along just fine with each other. Rush was another such oddity. Most of the super-legendary bands, by the time their first albums had come out, had that friction with each other.

wow! combined forces with this crew and it does not get better than this... outstanding.. yes at there very best........thanks for paying this one forward cheers

Thanks for this one. A fine performance from the sadly missed Squires but hats off too to Wakeman.

I was in my late 19 yrs (now 64) and introduced by a friend to Yes (thanks Rob). First album I heard was ‘Tales from Topographic Oceans’. Immediate an addict to the Yes music. Now 40 or more years later I still love it. It never got bored. Still baffled by the drawings of Roger Dean as well.

Bruford’s snare comping (ghost notes) is unbelievable. Amazing.

Had front row seats and backstage passes for this tour at the Garden. One of the highlights of my life. Thanks WNEW-FM. Your memory lives on. Special shout out to Dave Herman for choosing my name as the grand prize winner...

Chris Squire was a bass god. I cried when he died.

I saw Yes many times throughout the years starting in 1972. I would have seen them in 1971 on a bill with ELP but was too embarrassed to ask my friends for the $4 ticket price. Can you imagine how many times I've kicked myself over that? I saw this show also in Costa Mesa, CA. One of the best!

Great version of a great song. Thanks very much for the upload.

Saw this tour in Denver A co worker in the biz worked on the McNichols arena crew and got a couple passes. This was in the round with a revolving stage. Sat second section on floor which was just far enough to enjoy the full light show and still close enough to see them really take to the moments . What a hoot to see Tony Kaye and Trevor Rabin along with Bruford and the rest of the boys play these tracks so well, together !

I can’t imagine a better Yes performance anywhere/anytime/anyhow! Friggin’ amazing!

No words can come close, absolutely amazing performance

I saw this show at the the old Tampa fairgrounds. Boy this show was so much better than the Big Generator show. Chris played the absolute basic bass part on that BG tour (even less than studio version). I almost cried as anyone could have played that! It was almost like it wasn't him. I mean, the Yessongs version is THE version IMO of this song and he is just so melodic and awesome. I played the YS version for years as a warm up so I know every note. And then I'm waiting to hear HOTS on that BG tour and he played that watered down version. I sat in disbelief. But it's Chris and he can do no wrong. He has no equal to me. R.I.P Mr. Squire.

Saw them on that tour...Such a blessing.

Can't believe I've forgotten Yes....

Now with this song... none can over rate the fantastic voice of Jon Anderson! *also see how not every band has bitter resentments when the line up makes a change. What a treat to have all this talent and history on one stage.

I grew up with a heavy DAILY dose of their perfect musicianship in the 70's and in a lot of ways, was the reason I started drumming (along with ELP and Rush). This concert in the 90's and the stuff that's posted from their 2001 concerts in Amsterdam are truly AMAZING. However, what I've seen on KZread from a March, 2011 show was really disheartening. I just think it's better to remember days gone by and bask in what was 'the perfect musical storm'. God bless all the original members.
