I’m 67 in 2024. Was a teen in the seventies, graduated in 1974. All the tunes you listen to were part of our daily RADIO sounds. I enjoy seeing how much you and other reviewers are so into the songs you discover. It totally blows me away that it’s new to you. I think, how can they NOT have heard these tunes before, or the music / instruments being played to produce the tunes as that’s not prevalent today with the synthetic music. I was VERY fortunate, and am thrilled that you get to enjoy these “gifts” 50+ years later! ENJOY!!

I really want to find out what particular songs stick in the minds of these guys months after first reaction to hearing it. We were around when these works were just coming out, and everyone was astounded. I've asked the kids on this channel (they're kids to me; I'm 68) to let us know what songs have really stuck for them. I hope they respond).

I hear you. sixty six in 2024. Same musical experiences. The youngsters wonder why we cling to "our music" so hard. Well, this is why -- songs like this are a once in a lifetime thing. I equate the music of my youth to the cars of my youth. They were just so beautiful back then. Style, character, beautiful lines and jeez, so much power. Never to be repeated, unfortunately.

Agreed! The unique creativity when music groups each had their own, individual sound and feel, unlike a lot of today's music where I can't tell who's the group /singer because so many sound the same. And also the amount of filler instruments in songs now, without a good reason to be in the song other than to fill up "space". This is my all-time favorite YES song. A blast from my teenage years for sure.

This was from 1971. There were no fancy re-recording gimmicks for instrument sounds. The guys were actually playing their instruments. The keyboards were actually being played. Steve Howe was playing the guitar. Most of todays music groups could not play this song because they don’t really know how to play their instruments. This song, depending on when you read this, is over 51 years old. Absolute musical genius!

I'd like to make the general comment, after following you guys for quite a while, today seems to mark a type of arrival. You guys have been developing a sense of what each decade (50's-90's) was like, and have hit on many of the key songs that have defined each era. There is no doubt much more to get into, but with the Herman's Hermits and Yes reactions today, it's clear that your appreciation is growing, and that IS how it works... the more you know, the broader and specifically, the deeper you go, the more full your appreciation becomes. Great job, keep up the good work, and know that this road has no end. You will never 'know it all" ... no-one does... and that's the most beautiful thing of all. Music brings people together like nothing else in the world...

Can't remember who, but one of the members of Rush, stated there would have no Rush if it weren't for the band Yes. It is because this music is so good, due to the members in the band being true musicians who had talent, knew how to play instruments, and had actual vocal skills and didn't need any computerized crutches to make them sound good. Any mixers that existed were there to adjust the sounds to help the instruments blend with each other and with the vocals to make each sound their best both individually and together.

This was the classic Yes lineup of Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, Rick Wakeman and Bill Bruford. Squire's bass drove so much of their sound back then, and I tried to learn the bass guitar because of Squire, even buying a Rickenbacker. Everyone wanted to play bass like him, including me, but it was impossible. He was unique.

Joan Lajara I am so glad to have been a living part of this era. I turned 25 in 1970 and had been teaching high school for 3 years. My students and I were basically into the same music back then, and sometimes as a reward for having a good week I'd allow someone to bring in one of their favorite vinyls on a Friday and play it on low volumn on the 33 1/3 turntable I had in my classroom. How archaic that seems now 50+ years later. Btw, we never even thought about the possibility of an armed crazy person entering the school and shooting anyone. The front doors to the building were open and there were no law officers assigned to the place.

Speaking of hypnotized, you have to do " hypnotized" by Fleetwood Mac. This is 1973 right before Stevie Nicks joined the band, so it won't sound at all like the Fleetwood most are familiar with.

Watching Jon Anderson perform vocals live in those days, you could easily imagine him send from Heaven as he sang into a hanging microphone whilst standing on his tip-toes as if levitating off the surface. All the time draped in long liquid like white, creamy hanging gown like tunics with matching pajama pants. The ethereal, convincing voice often sounding like a one man choir. As a dear friend of mine, a serious fan from earliest days said, “It’s like he’s an Angel”.

It took what the Beatles had done, in terms of combining different parts of songs into one cohesive unit, and took it to the next level. And Yes' musicianship is top notch. This is an 8-minute masterpiece... a miniature symphony. Since you liked this so much, let me suggest another band from that era that also mixes different parts, time signatures, and key signatures into mini symphonies. I think you'll like 'In the Court of the Crimson King' by King Crimson.

Roundabout is probably the BEST song to drop on someone who hasn't heard TRUE Progressive Rock before. From a musical standpoint it is simply phenomenal - perfectly composed + arranged, perfectly performed + (most importantly) perfectly accessible melodically (if not lyrically! 😁) to a pop/rock listener. For a new initiate it is the equivalent of going to some exotic restaurant and experiencing a totally new cuisine and being transformed by it forever. I know Roundabout did that for me and my little 8 year-old brain back in '71. - 🎶🎵
