Anderson Rabin Wakeman - Awaken - Orlando 10/4/16 

One of the greatest progressive rock works ever composed. And these old men can still belt it out. Incredible. (I'm an old man too. :)).

Jon Anderson: At age 72 still the best singer on planet earth.

God I still love them all these decades later They just don't make awesome music like this today Today's generation have no idea what they have missed except for mine they were brought up listening to the best damn bands ever and jump at the chance to see these bands

Finally some "Yes" music I want to pay for!!!

Older but still golden! This is really YES....

Thanks for sharing this wonderful music

The very first memory of ever hearing Yes was on the radio back in the late Summer / Fall of 1971 around the age of 7 then when the radio station played the song Roundabout as a single before the Album actually came out and wasn’t released until 1972 . My Mother was washing either the dishes or the floor in the 2 flat we lived in at the time in Chicago. I don’t remember or recall hearing Yes on the AM radio station here until they introduced the FM to the Airwaves and even back then I wasn’t to much into The Rock n Roll scene back then but as Time went On over the Years I Became a Very Big and Huge Fan of Yes ! I Absolutely Love Most Of their Music Especially All The Great Masterpieces they have made in their music History which is part of The Rock n Roll Soundtrack of My Life !❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

A real dream come true! Good to see ARW have Lee and Louis in the band too (class musicians). I really hope they do a DVD and/or BluRay of their adventure.

Incredible sound! love Rabin's tone, all beautiful, great recording! Thank you!

Jon sounds amazing!! Bravo

Absolutely fantastic! I love Awaken!

Thanks so much for uploading this. I was there last night, and was blown away. This was a high point, obviously. As was Heart of the Sunrise, which was breathtaking. I count this as my third Yes show.

THANK YOU ! Jon has many songs that I call my favorite but this is best YES song ever !

Thank you for recording. It was a night I'll never forget. YOU ROCK!!

For the 1st night.....INCREDIBLE. Trevor is doing a good job playing Steve's parts while putting his own spin on them. Jon's voice sounds amazing. A+

Thank you for posting this. It is just magical! Yes is back.

I consider myself so lucky to have been able to see Yes in concert 3 times throughout the years (different line-ups off course), now I can honestly say that I can rest in peace ☺

Lowering keys always seems to "darken" songs to my ears....but the positives certainly outweigh the negatives. These guys are the real deal and this blows away any "Yes" show from the past 2 years (at the least). Bravo!

Really glad to see Mr. Jon Anderson on the vocals again - the most regocnisable and human sounding vocalists ever - not to speak about the Mr. Rick Wakeman the Wizard with the (All of those) keyboards. Awaken has been my all time Yes favorite since 1979, when I first recorded it with my tiny cassette player. Of course Steve Howe is the original member, but I enjoyed Rabins performance as well, but what I really miss here is Chris Squire with his taller than life boots :) and amazing playing with his Rickenbacker bass.

Fantastic. cant wait for the UK tour.

Jon sounds amazing ...

AMAZING YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

A dream comes truth... great...great performance..thanks for share....thanks...

AAHH! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Amazing quality, a real treat especially for those of us not on the tour list!

May John Anderson never leave this earth.

Boston this Wednesday! Can't wait! Thanks for posting!

Wakeman is a musical genius. with Andersons voice out of this earth! I miss the team with Howe and Wakeman battling with the music climaxing under and around the vocals. Rabin wrote some fantastic stuff and is great. Thanks for sharing this music event. Amazing they still play so well. I missed many of the later concerts. My first was in Buffalo at War memorial stadium I believe? and later in the round. They made me look at music from a whole new perspective. Very inspiring! Still an event to witness. God bless them all.

Go# dammit, they still have it! Brought tears to my eyes. Great rendition!! BraVO!!

Huge thanks & hugs for the UK XXX

Stellar performance. About 2 years ago I went to see the Steve Howe, Alan White, Billy Sherwood incarnation of Yes and I was a bit disappointed. I really hope that these guys can do one more tour so myself and my wife can see them live, because we are none of us getting any younger, and these clips I have watched of ARW demonstrate that these guys do a much better job of recreating the sound from the original line up.

Thank you for sharing this.

Congrats on getting your 2 ARW videos featured on Ultimate Classic Rock! I was honored to have mine featured for my Santana videos I posted in April. It's going to bring you a lot of views and engaged cool people, just in case you couldn't tell yet from the thousands of views and hundred comments. Thanks for the uploads! I can't wait to see them November 19th in Las Vegas!

Jon Anderson on center stage is way more than just a voice ... can't replace his energy

Fantastic, Wow, Can't wait to see this show.

Even though this show hasn't present itself as "Yes" what matters is that this band has left and idelible mark on the history of rock, to say if this or that one does it better is for this level not only stupid but unfair with these incredible musicians who have produced unforgettable music

Thank you for the video. It's sooooo cool ! I have to wait until march next year.

Fantastic ... Stunning ... Cosmic ... Cannot wait til ARW are in the UK next year.

Thank you for posting....wonderful to see them making music again.....but for me, it makes me yearn for a Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman, Howe "YES" tour...

hey I am not going to be a critic here. Great to see that these old guys .namely ,Ian and Rick are healthy and reviving this beautiful music again.

Anderson's jacket reminds me of the one squire used to wear- just reversed colors.

Thank you!!!!!.This is so great to see,and your quality video is Amazing!!.I've seen Yes many times w/ Jon,and Rick,even once standing in the pouring rain in front of Trevor!!.

Thank you for this! We have heaven!

Thanks for sharing, I get to see them this weekend in Philly

Jon's voice still pure as 1970's.

saw this in clearwater, class act, may they all live long and prosper

I was at this show, I live only 20 minutes away from the venue, and there's something I want to say about it. This was the last time I ever got high to a concert. For all of my life I felt I had to be high to be able to enjoy a concert but, then, it occurred to me that when I first discovered Yes, and Genesis, and Pink Floyd, and all that good stuff, I was a young teen who's never had a drop of liquor in me, much less used marihuana. I thoroughly enjoyed all that majestic music on its own merits. So ever since 10/4/16, I've enjoyed every concert I've gone to by only having a beer, or two. It is such a relief I don't need to hide in my car smoking weed, hoping the police will not find me. It's such a relief I don't have to show up at my seat stinking of marihuana. My next show is going to be Steve Hackett playing all of SEBTP and I can't wait for it!!!

Best 20 minutes listening to music that I have had in some time.

Not sure what to think of the drums in the quieter parts of Awaken... if it's not broke, don't fix it?

Jon Anderson....What a beautiful soul....

Great Recording, thanks for sharing the set list as well. Going to see them in Michigan in 2 weeks! I'm looking even more forward to it now!

YEAH! Thank you so much!

Thank you for the sharing

Great recording, please post more if you have it.

Tod Mobile Version WAS indeed excellent & I'm sure the You tube version WAS mixed . . I see nothing wrong with THAT. Love to see them do at least 1/2 of Trevor's "Can't Look Away" CD, on this tour.

Saw their performance in Durham at DPAC last night. Breath Taking...they still have it! I went back to those hippie trippy days for a night...LOL

Thank you for this. Awaken is my favorite Yes song, though there are certainly others which are nearby. Watching it the first time through, I was really moved. I saw them 5 nights in a row at Madison Square Garden during the Tormato tour, and they certainly captured the spirit here. I also really appreciated all the improvised ideas scattered throughout. You KNOW you can capture moments when you can do THAT ! Thank you Jon, Trevor, and Rick. I'm looking forward to more, and hearing new things from youz guyz ! Whaddya got in ya ?! Beautiful video and audio quality, too ! Thank you, TapeheadToo.

love the new start to awaken!!!

My god, his voice ... goosebumps.

Love all eras of Yes but with the 80's being my favorite, very disappointed in the setlist. Hopefully they add more 80's songs on their next tour. Please upload video of Hold On please.

They were great on this 2016 leg, but are MAGICAL on the 2017 set. Tighter, and having SO much fun playing together. This is the best outcome for Yes-Dom: two touring bands with differing sounds and focus, but still untouchable musicianship.

Thank you for posting. With the intro, I thought they were going to totally re-arrange the song..... but, it "simply" was a new intro. I'll go check out some other clips.

I was there row 6 this was great guys really nice to see you are still GREAT you nailed it, John how do you do it, but so glad you do Rick gentleman you are amazing keyboard skills as always and great sense of humour, and the Guitarist well awesome, drums bass it was a great night WE CAME ALL THE WAY FROM LONDON TO SEE YOU WELL WORTH IT... roll on the UK venue we will be there THANK YOU SO MUCH

Love this ! Jon and Rick the BEST !!!! No Jon, No YES.

Owner of a lonely harp

Yes, there were some awesome performances of this but just to see these guys play this together again after so many years was so emotional. Rip Chris, and if only can get Steve to come along.... I saw them 2x in October, Rick and Trevor actually walked down the center aisle playing OMG! We can only hope they will make an album together as only YES could..... love you bro for listening to the right music when I was growing up xoxo YES

I saw them do this last night at the Fraze Pavilion in Kettering Ohio , it was awesome!

Congrats Trevor Rabin, you and Steve are brilliant , each one with its style but 10 points.

Sorry to say but three giants missing : Steve Howe Bill Bruford And R.I.P. Chris Squier ! Love Trevor Rabin but when he plays his songs with Yes ! Jon and Rick are still excellent for their age ! This music will always be magical for eternity !

It´s good to see this monsters still playing together. Thanks God.

Yes are back!

With this incredible voice, all is so easy ¡¡¡¡¡¡

YES IS HERE!!!! :-)

Fantastic!

Thank you for the post, we went to the one at Hollywood FL Hard Rock Casino. I agree Steve Howe has a very unique style, but Trevor is a great guitarist. I can have Jon without Steve, but never Steve without Jon. Rick always great. Drummer kicks ass, bass so so.

If they don't play this in Nashville, I'm gonna cry! Best I remember it was Awaken that Chris brought out the bass with 3 necks. Last time I saw Jon was the Masterworks tour, 2000. Rick? 1977. Trevor? The Talk tour. Am I ready? YES !!!!!!!!!!

Plan to see them in Cardiff next year - but only if they do more of the Rabin era stuff. I'm looking for tracks like Hearts; Aim high, Shoot Low; Walls; Changes; Endless Dream, as well as some of the 70s stuff.

Hey TapeheadToo! Great job! Love me some YES!Your quality is awesome. I also love to film concerts (they're on my other channel) but when ARW comes to Nashville, the venue is the type that shuts every recording device down, so not sure what kind of footage I'll get. What kind of camera do you use? I'm so impressed. Can't wait to watch the rest of the show, but "Awaken" was posted on a YES page so I started here. Again Great Job! And I KNOW what you go through to film a show. It's work! But a rewarding work when someone appreciates what you did! So please except my thanks! Oh and if you're interested, my other channel is TheDailyVinylLIVE. I'm in Nashville.

You have a very nice camera and recording system, thanks for sharing!

I love Lou's drumming here. I like his work...was in YOSO with Theeeee Billy Sherwood. His drumming is very fresh...tune sounds "updaded"...A little anyway. Looking so forward to Oct. 9. Cheers.

Glad to see them. They are Yes for me. But, Awaken cannot compare to Toddmoblle Version with Anderson. That I will watch again. This version Not so much. It was good dont get me wrong but my expectations were higher. I do not know what the full setlist is but I want to here more Rabin era stuff. I have heard Roundabout, Hear of the Sunrise and Perpetual Change, and All good people enough. I am wanting to hear stuff form Talk, 90125 and BG. A good opener would have been Lift Me Up from Union. If I want to hear the stuff currently on you tube I have many DVDs I can watch. Disappointed with what I have seen so far not with musician ship, but song selection. And Firebird to open show!

The only way that I can enjoy Yes is with Jon at the helm. The band sounds fantastic~ Rob/Boston

Yes fantastici

We just miss you like hell, Chris!!! RIP

Hope these guys release some new material........... smokin'..........

Fucking amazing!!! Knowing you, I imagine you filmed the entire show. Is there any chance that you'd upload Cinema / Perpetual Change PLEEEEEEASE? In any case, thank you very much!!!

But, Awaken cannot compare to Toddmoblle Version with Anderson THIS IS ENTIRELY ACCURATE..the toddmobile was a once in a lifetime. however,il take this..any day... awaken the ultimate music created

YES!!!!!!!

SET LIST: Taking my kids to see them in London next year so think set list is bang on...all their classic material. I guess we need to see all this in context for Jon & Rick too. It may well be the last "YES" /"ARW" tour ever for them...they're getting on so they probably want to play what's dearest to their hearts :)

REAL YES!!! FOREVERMORE!!!

When the originals are there their sound is more 'them' than when there are subs standing in . . . like in this case with Wakeman being there.

Take a bow Mr Anderson you are wondeful

Gratidão! Sempre, belíssima e eterna canção do YES imortalizando!

My god....goosebumps...

I was there, I wish they did a lot more 90125, like changes, it can happen and leave it, as well as some of talk like maybe the calling

Jon and Rick! 2 of my very favs!

I'm going to see them tonight at the Beacon Theater in Manhattan. Psyched!

Masterpiece.

There are some serious tuning issues and playing errors in this version.

MERAVIGLIA!!!!!!

Rabin is no match for Steve Howe and this masterpiece suffers because of this, but most of all it misses Chris Squire " The greatest bass player ever" R.I.P. Chris your music will last forever.
