Yes - Symphonic - And you and I - 

crystal clear!

This pretty correct!

Glad you're a cancer survivor. Back in '74 I saw two concerts by March. Zappa and Yes. What a great start for that year.

Two years out of treatment...love to you my strong friend

Yes is love in a song.

Hope you are cancer free but you cling to any crutch when you are broken, however the crutch does not cling to you!?!

Wow that's great.

Same age man. What an amazing life

Same!!❤

Also, Steve has a keen perception of guitar theory like no other. Profound.

His work on wonderous stories was amazing

I was SHOCKED when I saw them live and I was finally able to decode that sound…. A damn steal guitar…

It's an over looked album, as all of the Yes albums. Drama awesome as well.

Yes. They captured lightning in a bottle there. Oddly, they also seemed to accidentally also do that with Yesongs, Relayer and Going for the One. All exceptional albums. Odd that!

their entire repertory is just from another dimension. There is not a band like Yes, they're trully unique.

The most resounding "Ditto" I have ever uttered, applies here :)

oh man, i just listened to this song two years ago. first time I heard it, i didnt like it. however, the more and more i listened, the more i saw how much of a masterpiece it is. one time gave me the chills down to the last vertebrate. so amazing!

I got chills now. Glad others feel the same. Take care!!

Me too 😊👩‍🦰 I was 15, now 58 and it still swallows me like that very first time in my boyfriend's room. Turn table and big headphones. Just like it was yesterday 👩‍🦰🥰🐘♥️

Its amazing. Ahead of its time

muxux4 I have to agree. Certain music swells up to fill the emotions, and this song belongs in that group.

Jon is a god!

I never know what the hell Yes was ever singing about but it sounded good. I think the words meant nothing but they sounded deep when in actuality they were as deep as the Ramones.

@@kevinkline7242 "as deep as the Ramones"!! thanks for that!

50....

Just watched this and the same

I just read your comment Ian. I was about to say I always get goosebumps when I listen to this. 40 years later I still do. So moving

My Dad, too. Not to Yes, but expanded my musical horizons from 45s to 331/3 long play albums...funny to remember Roundabout was an A.M. hit (in shorter form).

Yah, and then he tosses it to a roadie without missing a note!

Great father!

100th like - Well done Dad.

@@JamesSmith-vz8yr Haha, very nice. My father unfortunately passed around Christmas 2020, but the music he taught me to enjoy will be treasured forever, and he'll live there inbetween the notes until the day I inevitably die as well.

I was 16 and reading Yeats. Still reading and listening to both...4 decades later...

And where might one find your work that was inspired by Yes and Shelley?

@@Anglagard1 I am now a professional literary agent and my poetry is private. However, thank you for your interest, and should I ever decide to publish my poetic works, I would be happy to text you, accordingly. Peace.

Yo tengo 62 y sí,aún vibró,sueño y lloro de emoción al escucharla,al sentirla,que afortunados fuimos y seguimos siendolo verdad??❤💯

You are a youngster of sorts. At 73 "YES", I agree with " You and I "

A mi aún me pone la piel de gallina

Quality never gets old.

I completely agree ~ I am transported to another time and place when I hear this Masterpiece. And I cry, overcome with great emotion at the beauty of it all. Another Virtuoso performance, a Masterpiece ~ YES!

Fritz: YOU GOT IT.

Extraordinary was one word I was grasping for. This arrangement of this beautiful song makes me feel every word, every note. Nothing compares to this raw talent and a full orchestra is never a loss for anyone. My youth is right there to be accessed when this comes on. Every day I watch this now, my 2 little granddaughters love the visual, as I do, but nothing makes my hair stand up in emotion like this. ❤️

@@julesmisty Exactly!!!

Bless you him and all from within Jesus...resting and living in Peace

Squire was probably the best progressive/rock bassist that ever existed.

Zoltán Szamosi aaw

wow, lucky you : )

I've only seen YES once since Anderson had to cancel due to medical reasons in 2008. It was good but it wasn't the same with Anderson gone from the band. Prior to that, I'd seen them in concert every single year, dating back to 1978. So I've seen them 30 years in a row, and then once in the past decade. Won't ever be the same without Chris Squire so I'll just have to live with the memories and videos now.

*Close to the Edge* was the very first music that I played in my 1968 VW Bug, in 1972 right after I bought the ... get this ... 8-Track! My car stereo improved over time, while the music of YES remains at the top of my listening pleasure. I still own and play the original Half Speed Master album, from Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs, on my turntable. Ear Heaven! My brother, eight years younger than I am, heard me playing YES one day when he was 13. He became a lifelong fan of YES music on that day and it has influenced his music, ever since. Good times.

At a friend's surprise birthday party in 1975 the surprise was that nobody communicated and so he received five or six identical gifts of the very same "Yes" album! - j q t -

U rock baby

Yes... and the strings specially the cellos add warmth. And violins added brightness and power on top of steves playing

LOTS OF ROCK AND ESPECIALLY NEW WAVE MUSIC IS FILLED WITH SUBLIMINAL MESSAGES AND PROPHECY FROM GOD/CHRIST AIMED AT THE DEVIL AND THE FALLEN ANGELS AND ALL WHO FOLLOW THEM. BLACK SABBATH'S "WAR PIGS" IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF GOD/CHRIST'S WORK. THIS SONG AND THE MANNER OF WHICH IT IS WRITTEN IN, SCREAMS THE ALMIGHTY GOD WHO IS CHRIST. Acts 2:17-21 New King James Version (NKJV) 17 ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. 18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy. 19 I will show wonders in heaven above And signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord. 21 And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved.’

Right! As much as is going on in this song, his playing, esp. the steel guitar, carries it through.

@@justjeph6927 DID YOU KNOW WHEN JETHRO TULL WROTE 'LIVING IN THE PAST". HE NEVER KNEW WHY HE WROTE IT, AND NEVER LIKED PLAYING IT IN CONCERT AND AVOIDED THE SONG. I KNOW THERE ARE MESSAGES IN "LIVING IN THE PAST" AIMED AT THE DEVIL. WHAT YES THOUGHT THEY WERE SINGING ABOUT AND WHAT GOD WAS CONVEYING THROUGH THEM IS 2 DIFFERENT THINGS. THE LYRICS IN THIS SONG "AND YOU AND I" IS ALMOST AS IF GOD IS SPEAKING ABOUT THE BEGINNING, BEFORE HE CREATED WHAT WE READ IN GENESIS.

Unlike us! Lol

Yes he is. He's one of my all time favorite guitarists (I'm a guitarist myself, but nowhere near that level). I prefer Steve over Santana, Van Halen, Malmsteen and many others just because he's so incredibly damn versatile. Rock, classical, country, bluegrass, just about anything he can play as if it were the only style he knows. I saw them on tour around the time this was recorded, in San Jose's Center for the Performing Arts. It's not a typical venue for rock bands, but the sound and show were incredible. The guys were showing their age then and that was more than a dozen years ago. Steve would try a few jumping kicks like he did in the old day and we thought he was going to fall and break a hip. I counted 24 different stringed instruments that Steve Howe played during the concert. Up to 3 on a song. He started with one clamped on a stand, switched to one he had strapped on and then a crew member tossed him another. And he played them all with the wonderful style and precision for which he's famous.

mnbme He's seriously under appreciated.

you kids today and your crazy understatments...!

I wouldn't say he's underappreciated: Guitar Player Magazine 8 time all around guitarist award; one of the VERY few to win Lifetime Award. And as great a guitarist as Trevor Rabin is, he is still the Padawan to the Jedi Master Steve Howe.

U r so cute

Me too Matina It was definitely a blessing

Your friend's a tw@.

I saw them in 83 and was blown away. AMAZING! That part of "Seen all good people" where the bass and keyboard kick in. The audience just stood up and cheered!

I'll never know..but that young keyboardist sure does!

2 of the best !

He is not side by side with Jimmy Page.he is light years ahead of Page

Tony McQuarters Yep. ✌️

Tony McQuarters agree, what a stupid comparison, Howe is a master at his art, Page is great, bit lot more bluesy, Just dont compare those two, its silly, kind of comments we hear from typical rockers. 😜

I just wonder what music JP would have made if he didn't use drugs @@tonymcquarters6593

@@ciliaris2 jimmy is very limited , drugs gave him a breather, but as all other musicians he became addicted, drugs are powerful

GoodyBob, I too miss Rick Wakeman, although his solo stuff was pretty good too. God's speed to him and the members of this timeless group.
