In case you've never seen Steve Howe look happy, here's an old solo about a one day old boy; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNUedapF-bo

Thank you very much. I saw them in St. Louis about 2 months prior. Remarkable.

If you want to be blown away, listen to Squire’s isolated bass on Roundabout.

Those aren’t the “original” members, that would have been Peter Banks, instead of Howe, and Bill Bruford, instead of White, and Tony Kaye, instead of Wakeman.

Fun stuff & very talented musicians. (Classic lineup) :-)

I think Yes might just have the most convoluted band history of any major rock (?) band out there...

Great stuff

Yes is one of my all time favorite bands.

I remember seeing Yes in concert in Seattle on an unusually hot day (for Seattle). I can’t remember the venue but I do recall vividly how stifling the dead air was.

And then it occurred to me that while I was griping about a little discomfort, these guys were working their asses off.

They put on one heck of a show.

Saw them a couple of times live, both were amazing shows. I think the first was when “Talk” was out. The latter, they were playing all their epics - no song under 15 minutes. Good times.

One of the bits they did included a long drum sequence, Japanese style. Very cool.

Thanks for posting. I’d never heard this before. Big Yes fan, but hadn’t noticed it.

AI-generated by Youtube and then passed to FR. That’s the pipeline for a tuneful be yourself be yourself be yourself be yourself be yourself and so on.

So choose, go ahead and give your freewill a chance, but someone’s fixed the choices. The guitar gods have been repurposed to control the masses.

If you smoke, don’t inhale.
