Rick’s just too funny! Miss this lineup! RIP Chris and Alan!

Wow. This is sooooooo good.

Actually this was their Full Circle Tour, not their 35th Anniversary Tour (which was in 2004)

Leaves me speechless. Flawless performances from the whole band. I miss them so much.

This very Talk era gig, was imho, a big PHUCK You, to all the ppl who s closer to early yes era tunes. Two reasons, one; the repertoire is extremely far from old ass prog coloured kinda tunes except for some mandatory ones. Two, the quality of this repertoire is extremely stellar, the harmonies have never sounded this better, Talk s a state of the art, neat and classy LP, only a jealous resented yes fan would deny that fact. Bonus track, fact three: as a chilean, chilean ppl s very gatekeeping nitpicking whinny towards their musical taste and the bands they idolize, its incredible the bandwagoning towards the old just because its old, and extremely narrow minded when it comes to something as easy as open their ears a lil bit and be moved by something other than what their prejudice prevents them to enjoy. And ive seen such case, loathing albums only for them albums make em believers later. Very brave and professionally played by Yes, a bold move to carry on with that direction and new style. Far more harmoniously between them members, having the time of their lives, without that genius prick steve howe creating tensions, guitar mastery aside. Phuck him, Trevor s just as one off a kind once you listen his music closer, and realize he s got a style off his own far more classier than what 80s modern guitarists can claim.

always wondered how Yes made it so big with all the progressive groups around that time and then it hit me -- they were complicated and had great harmonies--that Jon Anderson voice & the harmonies were jus terrific!

The best 👌

This is my favorite version of this song

Rick Wakeman, you are in my opinion, without doubt, the greatest rock keyboardist in the world, ever. Congratulations and thank you.😀🎹

I first heard Yes cover America at 10yrs old in 1977 and immediately fell in love with the song. Steve Howe really funks out on the guitar and decades later you see how much joy playing this piece for an audience still brings him and me as well. Brilliant!

Turn of the Century", 1978: Jon A. has spoken of becoming a friend of the painter (sometimes sculptor...) Marc Chagall in Paris in 1970-something, around the time when Anderson became known as an amateur painter. Anderson has also told another story which is not strictly historical: When the Chagalls moved from Russia to Europe and Marc became the incredibly famous painter (this would be around1920), Chagall's perhaps less adaptive wife was absolutely unsuited and not prepared. Deprived of Marc's masculine strengths due to the world's demands on his incredible talent, and feeling so lost in a new environment, "she died" as the song says. Anderson might have said "she killed herself", but that's so dramatic. (anyway Bella died in 1954, a very long time to spend dying). Anyway Chagall himself died in 1985 and since then Anderson has hinted this tale is an element in this particular song... and the parallels are abundant, but the story itself, & what a story - is not strictly true. The song though.... is one of their more direct lyrics -and the guitar pyrotechnics make it holy and sublime. Lyrics: Realising a form out of stone, Set hands moving. Roan shaped his heart, Through his working hands. Worked to mold his passion into clay, Like the sun. In his room, his lady, She would dance and sing so completely. "So be still," he now cries, "I have time, oh let clay transform thee so." In the deep cold of night, Winter calls, he cries "Don't deny me!" For his lady, deep her illness. Time has caught her, And will for all reasons take her. In the still light of dawn, she dies. Helpless hands soul revealing. Like leaves we touch, we learn. We once knew the story. As winter calls he will starve, All but to see the stone be life. Now Roan, no more tears. Set to work his strength, So transformed him. Realizing a form out of stone, His work so absorbed him. Could she hear him? Could she see him? All aglow was his room, Dazed in this light. He would touch her, He would hold her. Laughing as they danced, Highest colors touching others. Did her eyes at the turn of the century, Tell me plainly. How we'll meet, how we'll love, Oh, let life so transform me. Like leaves we touch, we dance. We once knew the story. As autumn called and we both, Remembered all those many years ago. I'm sure we know. Was the sign in the day with a touch, As I kiss your fingers. We walk hands in the sun, Memories when we're young, Love lingers so. Was it sun through the haze, That made all your looks, As warm as moonlight? As a pearl deep your eyes, Tears have flown away, All the same light. Did her eyes at the turn of the century, Tell me plainly. When we meet, how we'll look, As we smile time will leave me clearly. Like leaves we touch, we see, We will know the story. As autumn calls we'll both remember, All those many years ago.

How can four musicians and one voice produce this extraordinary complex beautiful masterpiece live is beyond me and during Steve Howe’s solo at 7 minutes the audience is so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Thank you Yes.

My brother Dave once said Rick was just... He read all and Russian greats. My bro Dave is. Short sided. I know this .. Dick Dave. ... Lol R

PERFECTION! steve howe is the best guitar of the f*king history!

❤❤❤

I love Steve Howe, but when did he start rocking the Gollum vibe?

Cuando la música NO era "virtual" producto de un software (y sin autotune) y era compuesta e interpretada ppr musicos REALES, previo a muuucho ENSAYAR y ENSAYAR. Así de "simple"... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Patrick Moraz en..."MODO JAZZ~ROCK" para interpretar "Close to the edge" 😂😂😂 Por momentos aqui YES parece "Return to for ever", "Weather Report" ó la "Mahavishnu orchestra" 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Steve...en esta versión, literalmente...juega se "burla"...diriamos en Argentina, la "sobra" a su guitarra. Me parece muy interesante su innovadora interpretación de "Close to the edge". Todo lo contrario de criticarlo, lo elegio, lo felicito. Me parece excelente su idea de haber hecho una versión mas sofisticada aún!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Me encanta el sello personal que Patrick Moraz le dió aquí a Close to tje edge !! Bravo...bravísimo!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

It's great to see a player who can shred with this best doing something as Chet Atkins as this. My favorite guitarist ever, for over 50 years. So sad about Virgil. RIP, little brother.

My favourite Yes song 🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Miss Chris and Alan so much.

Victory Music "going under"??- under what? TALK had roots press coverage across California,.. yet we saw zero mass marketng. 'Cuz when dance music went big, YES' management turned on fans, putting out frequent 70's compilations featuring Wakeman... who remains YES-manager Brian Lane's golden goose. That "management" actively competed against YES' potential for new audiences with 70's knock-offs. it seems rather likely another suit scammed the bands' TALK fund and Victory... Victory let the band do the talking

is BIG GENERATOR the top YES album we love to hate ? yet Jon compared it to THE YES ALBUM and the tour was their sonc triumph, never more burnished

I just recently revisited 90125 after a 30 year hiatus and damn, it still kicks ass! Absolutely stellar songs, vocals and playing

I was fortunate to do some work with the band on this tour and saw every show since the Relayer tour as a lifelong fan. Endless Dream I put as one of the great Yes tunes up there with Awaken and others. Trevos solo is a master class of feel. I miss Chris and Alan terribly not only amazing musicians also so down to earth and great humans. Long may they rest as their memories and music carry on

this was great but the original with the choir was even better

The lovely concert and song! Yes forever!

👏👏👏👏👏

I got to hear Steve play this in 1973 Dallas, Tx.

When you applause us... You go to House of Blues!

Para mi gustó es mejor grupo de la historía. YES .

Sin duda Yes es uno de los mejores grupos y su guitarristas genial .

Este tema de Yes , es uno de mejores en calidad románticos de la historía.

My favorite guitarist for over 50 years. Beautiful.

I was There the Night. The Best Consert I ever saw!!

I must be getting old, this is great, lol.

Orchestral recording produced and engineered by the great #AlanParsons !

I wonder if Dylan realizes what a guitar god Steve is and was. It must be weird being his son. And RIP Virgil. Gone way too son.

i would've gone to so many Yes shows back then if i had been alive - at least i'm there in spirit

Thank God I saw this tour in Syracuse. TALK is truly a record that didn’t grab me at first. But once it did, the album held on to me TIGHTLY.

I woke up today with this song in my head, and like a gift from God, I found it here live. I wondered how he would pull off all the layers of harmonies and different sounds, but the band maintained a really good feel for the original, in part thanks to VIrgil's vocals and the other guitarist's fantastic soloing (sorry - I don't know his name, but he is great). RIP Virgil Howe and prayers for comfort for Steve, Janet, Dylan and Georgia.

I bought Beginnings when it first came out - loved the songs and the guitar work. Great to see him doing them live!

Rabins guitar is absolutely amazing. A really great piece.👋👋👋👋👋

I Wass so stupid not to visit the show in Germany. I´m a real idiot.😭😭😭😭😭

Truly magic!

Saw 3 of the MSG shows on this tour
