Yes - I've Seen All Good People - Live Montreux 2003

[xXShee6Xx]

I'd give up anything in the world, just to see this again. i miss this sooooo much :(

[nenemisterio]

great band, make my head for many years

[fireblossom2u]

I was a young rock and blues player in the early seventies. Green, Clapton, Zappa, Hendrix, Beck, Muddy Waters, and then I heard Steve Howe live. It was the first time I'd heard of Yes. It was an instant eye opener for me. Virtuosic music played by virtuoso's. It changed things for me. I started listening to Grant Green, George Benson, Gabor Szabo. From there I found classical guitar.. All because of Steve and Yes. Bless the great Steve Howe and bless Yes!

[tychaton08]

Merci!

[bbout19]

Every time I hear a Yes song, especially live, I an once again reminded why Yes is one of my favorite bands and Steve Howe one of my favorite guitarists...all of them are genius.....

[green3825]

Found this DVD ay Newbury Comics for $9.99. What a deal. It's worth is $999.00. If you can find it, buy it. You won't be disappointed.

[Tamgeopose1988]

This is a great song, which kind of reminds me of a band I've heard a few days ago, Aperco. Hear the similarity at their channel apercoband

[green3825]

A song about a chess match. How do you sing that?

[EgfischyHurlingham]

I love!! Yes...from Hurlingham Argentina

[MegaNicolet1]

zuchtttttttttttt :-) 

[crashtv]

it's very quiet but I have a volume control.

They all got fat - Looks like they sucked all the nourishment out of Howe.

[FeFe3O4]

Real Musicians Playing Real Music. Much modern music is good and beautiful in it's own rite, however, Classic Porgressive like this is unmistaeable and near un-reproducable. You can tell the musicians are classicly trained. I was a preteen when I started listening to Yes, Pink Floyd, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Uriah Heep, Deep Purple and on and on. I Am Grateful these people chose to share their art with me. It has enriched my life beyond words.

[skyelander00]

"Who is that on guitar" Eeh gads, people don't even know who it is! Steve Howe, five times voted "Best Overall Guitarist" - Guitar Player magazine, and Hall of Fame entry.

[skyelander00]

@locksmithite "Very underrated band" - My whole life, it seems, I've been making this argument with people who keep insisting "Yes isn't good music." With age I've come to realize their are people who "get" Yes, and people who just don't. We are the minority, but the smart ones! And we were right about Yes, as time has proven. But because they don't play "dance music" most people just don't like it or get it. Listening to Yes is about LISTENING to Yes, not dancing. I wish people understood

[tedorcon]

I saw these guys in Philly in '81. One of the best concerts I've ever been to. Good times. They were on a rotating stage and we were doing whippet balloons.

Tempis fuget, though. They still have the sound, but the energy doesn't seem to be there. It 's been 30 years. Great band, though. Forever great.

[MoondogUSA]

@TheNucleusAlbum1968 Whoa man, why are you hating on Rush? I love Yes and Rush and its ridiculous to compare the two the way you're doing. Both groups are great in their musicianship and songwriting, but totally different stylistically. Try to keep an open mind; even if you don't like something it doesn't mean its bad. Maybe instead of hating on a completely different band you can share something constructive or not at all.

[progrockr616]

less than 100.000 views is criminal .. this is a great tune ..with so few views they are seriously underated... YES are superb.. thanks for the post...

[mockys2007]

hi, may i know whos on the guitar? thank you

[nevermindforgetit]

@mockys2007 That's none other than Steve Howe.

[bikerbutterfly]

@mockys2007 Steve Howe - guitar

[chuck11166]

I been a huge Yes fan what I've always liked about Yes is while growing up in the 80's we had all the hair bands honestly it's always been the same 2-3 versuses, chorus, guitar solo and the song ending repeating the chorus. I think Yes was always very inovative they use to put out 10-15 minute songs never bothered them there lack of air play on radio stations. I do agree very underated and to this day I still enjoy hearing there music

[studentjohn36]

i don't ever want to hear Benoit sing this. I'll curl up and shrivel up.

[cdh88]

Originally released in 1971, this from 2003, amazing I'd say

[Bigturns33]

Anderson still sounds amazing. I was not even a sperm here born in 84 but I love Yes they are brillant. Every song is a masterpeice of music.

[jerseyanimall]

The best band on the planet. The very first progressive rock band that all others follow.

[willypdyer]

Give peace a chance ??

sure.. why not..

[TheConnord12]

yes is my favorite band of all time, but would it hurt steve to add a little distortion? just sayin.

[Gmanime]

Wakeman is missing about 80or so beers.

[2TEARSRETURNSMFKRS8]

I remember the Movie with "maybe" the first movie that Tom Cruise was "recognized" in The Legend...Love that movie & loved the music by YES..that is when I was very intrigued with this band.

~~2Tears~~

[smvaeiou]

That is NOT "instant comment", Sir...........

THAT was "Send out Instant Karma to me".........fantastic lyrics from a fantastic band.

[jayj420]

1:37 and in 2:26 he says," Send an instant comment to me,

Initial it with loving care!..... in 1971 there were NOT instant comments that you could send what was he talking about!!!!! i've always wondered that!!! some help with this! it he telling the future?

[Tonymount]

I am so old that I can honestly say that I saw them at the Finsbury Park Apollo back in 1974. The set was Close to The Edge followed by Tales from Topographic Oceans.

Listening to this just now brought back some brilliant memories.

Thank you for posting this.

[chefstevie1]

@Tonymount Me too ,brilliant methinks

[fallfly1]

great memories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[klnine]

Yes ELP Tull Genesis Purple Moodies .Doobies .a special era !

[ximilingue]

just like good wine ..... :)

[jaynieb]

Wow, they're as awesome as ever! I saw The Who in 2002, and they were amazing as well.

[debris54]

I saw this live in Vancouver, shortly after the original release... they were the OPENING BAND! :-) i remember thinking ''holy shit... how can anyone top that!!?''

... then Jethro Tull came on... and topped it!! what a show that was.... whatever happened to Ian Anderson? ... 'guitartech' ...there actually use to be a lot of intelligent bands.... then people started thinking cocaine was cool, and that was the end of the psychedelic age ...always loved Squire's stereo bass sound

[daregularperson]

Does anyone know what kind of guitar Steve uses for the first half of this song? It doesn't quite look like a mandolin... and it doesn't sound quite like a 12 string.

[kevinkgillette]

@daregularperson I think it's what they call a mando-cello - but don't quote me on that. It's cool, isn't it?

[daregularperson]

@kevinkgillette Actually I looked it up, and it's a 12-string lute tuned to open E (EBEG#Be). And the main part is 3 different chord shapes: 000000, 020100, and 040300. For anybody who wishes to play it on their own guitar. :-)

[nanderson1965]

Send an instant comment to me...

"I love you Jon"

There's my instant comment!

[guitartec]

I've always been amazed that YES ever took off at all. The masses are generally not that bright, so I figured they would have fallen by the wayside. Guess the jokes on me. WHAT A GREAT FRIGGEN BAND

[thisNewFoundLand]

..bravo! i love the inclusion of "...all we are saying is, give peace a chance...".

such a tune.

[jldrury]

There's nothing like the original line up.!

[HousesOfTheHolyV]

This is no the original line up.

[GBJPhotoWorks]

While this is not the original line-up, there is no question that this line-up toured more than any other.

[jldrury]

Which of the original members is missing? jldrury

[GBJPhotoWorks]

Therefore, this video is actually less than half of the original line-up. The only founding members of the group on this video are Anderson and Squire.

[jldrury]

Thanks for the comprehensive explanation. I have always loved YES and similar for lack of a better term "prog rock music". I remember the first three albums and nobody sounded like them in the least way. Again thank you and Regards, jldrury

[harveydents]

@jldrury this isnt the original line up...the oringal line up is: anderson, squire, banks,, kayes, bruford

[aldinardo]

@harveydents Banks=Genesis. Maybe Steve Howe.

[nintendo64isking]

He means peter banks, not tony. Peter was the original guitarist of Yes.

[nintendo64isking]

He means Peter Banks not Tony. Pter was the original guitarist of Yes

[spockwise]

This is the strongest lineup. Wakeman is the best keyboardist yes ever had by far, and howe the best guitarist. not the original, but the lineup that did fragile yes, the album that put them on the map.

[rollo131]

Jon Anderson has aged exceptionally well, hasn't he?

[budelke]

what an ,,album,, it is. great performance

[bigua1428]

Come on JON , you and Yes together for ever . ¨¡¡¡¡ YES rocks for 40 years, incredible. The most important band foa all times.

Regards from Argentina, Arthur

[HousesOfTheHolyV]

Men comentaste en todos los videos de Yes que hay.

[lpvcrcd]

Boy that is nice job done live..after how many years 32+ As one user below noted .. Anderson still has that tenor voice intact Not too many bands [if any? from that era] could reproduce their music after 3 decades so tightly and so much like the original studio recording !! Great .. thanks for the post!

[Yrgul66]

@lpvcrcd It is amazing, I love Yes. As for bands that are still really tight, Rush is another one. 36 years as a band, I just saw them in September and they're just as solid as ever.

[raylo993]

@lpvcrcd Yeah, you are right on except the actual age of this original track.....more like 39 years. Anyway, I was a big Yes fan when I was in high school back in 1977.

[schoschie]

@lpvcrcd that is exactly what i thought… listen to the other tracks posted here from montreux 2003 as well… same thing… very impressive!

[GentleGiantComp]

@lpvcrcd you mean alto? and yes its amazing how they do this live even at their age

[guitarconasor]

@lpvcrcd Too bad they won't let him play in the band now.

[1971alicat]

this is on the Almost Famous soundtrack. Kick ass movie and kick ass soundtrack!

[123michaelm123]

This song freakin rocks! Saw them a few years back :D

[57Enahs]

I will always love this song! No matter how old I get. And yes I am a bit older.

[locksmithite]

Very underrated band

[FueledbyMoon]

Completely agree. I got this concert on HDDVD and it's one of the best live concerts I've ever seen. Hell, I was born in '94 and I love them more than 95% of stuff these days

[FLUSEM666]

@locksmithite Yes, underrated? LOL

[klnine]

@locksmithite they were the biggest band of the 70's dude totally sold out all USA gigs !

[SONGsanmanwah]

@locksmithite really? I think they got all the possible recognitions either individual or band-wise and if they tour today the hall will be just as full as this one in 03 for sure ; )

[MrCicciodesellero]

@locksmithite underrated????

[keo774]

@locksmithite why underrated?

[EyMeng]

anderson is so lucky he kept that awesome voice intact.

[Marval1]

Geez i love what Steve adds to this song with his singing. makes it different but still very awesome. Actually he even makes it better . :D

[RynoScott]

right on!

good pick up. 8{i}

[ronnieknotts]

Okie Shmokie dokieeee!

[tuffy925]

I met this chick from Okie when this song first came out!! AAwwsome!

[VeganWTF]

Okie Dokie

[knightmidnight]

YES, Gods of Music!!!!!!!

[npspec34]

I always liked Frampton's Camel which had many songs included on the ultimate live album previewed 3 yrs early.

move on back two squares.

[hurley1]

i heard this song is about chess lol. Hard to believe they wrote such a sick song about a board game haha!

[seanx666]

chess is just an analogy for life

[chuck11166]

Back in the early 70's you had the zepellins, the who and the aerosmiths all great groups but Yes has always been so underated, very talented and they still sound good today my favorite band of all time. I think they wer'e one of the only bands back then that canput out 10-15 minute songs so skillfully there number 1 in my book

[edonotokyo]

True...but include early Genisis and of course t he

best band still from that period is Camel. They're still doing long play concept albums that have extended songs. Go tho Camelproductions. com or you -tube ...check out Ice

[beaverliqour]

i have their first album: Toe

[edonotokyo]

Doesn't make any sense...unless your attempting to be infantile and ignorant...if thats the case I get it....

[beaverliqour]

just trying to have some fun...ease up your idolatry Camel is clearly broadcast ed to all

[tiimm56]

If I was in a band called Camel, my debut album would totally be called Toe. Luckily though, my bands the Totally Cool Cobras, so we don't have such a problem.

[rabelloerick]

Love Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[crimsonrx4]

The band don't sound any less beautiful than when this song was first performed back in 1971. This is art!

[joshie676]

amazing music

[hotman648]

Deedsy

[elenapulli]

Pure bliss now, as it was 35 years ago. Simply one of a kind. Go Jon, go!!

[lfcronos]

As a brazilian tv guy says: "who knows makes it live!"

[tinaandvince]

Fantastic ,John sounds the same as in the early 70s,nice to see the master a.k.a. Rick back on keyboards!

[Gravyhead22]

I LOVE YES!&yeah they do sound like the studio version...thats one of things i love about the band...unlike alot bands they sound wicked similar on cd and concert! THEY ROCK

[budsweiser1]

Wow. sounds about exactly like the studio version does. Yes owns.

FOR THE QUEEN TO USE!!
