This DVD ROCKS!! Just purchased awhile ago! While the new original Circa: material is steller, this DVD is worth the price just for the Chronological Journey medley along! Looking forward to Circa:2008! Keep it coming!!
When I read "Yes medley" I groaned inwardly, however I enjoyed hearing this music played live. I may buy the DVD, do Circa play any of the good 80s/90s Yes stuff in the medley? (I'm Running, Miracle of Life, Endless Dream, That That Is, etc.)
i have been a yes fan for almost 15 years now and very disappointed by their hiatus (for financial reasons?)... I must say i absolutely love their music, they are just genius !!
In 2008, i discovered circa : please keep on like this : YOU ARE THE FUTURE OF YES
According to Jon, Rick's doctor said he didn't have the health to tour large-scale. It'll be interesting to hear Oliver on keys. I'm still praying they add a stop in Phoenix.
Jimmy is amazing, he not only captures the spirit of Howe, but adds his own distinct flair. Quite the guitarist, best I've heard in a decade, up there with luminaries like Richard Thompson and others who push the envelope of the genre!
These are so great! I put them on my favorites! Listening to Jimmy's guitar here makes me amazed at Howe and the amazing wonderful odd connection he has from his brain to his fingers!
U know...wow, u guys rock...and i gotta say that Jimmy plays just as well if not a little bit sharper and faster than Howe can CURRENTLY, so its refreshing to hear CTTE at its proper speed once again. Props, and on the other chronological journy clip Haun does an even better job, thats the stand out performance for me, props to you jimmy, those are big shoes to fill and you did great!
I never thought I will see Tony Playing Close to the Edge..I think is he is a terrific hammond and keyboard player. His work in the Circa debut album is inmaculate as the one performed by Billy (hell of a bass player) Jimmy (I like his style) and of course Allan (no comment..he is simply superb)..CIRCA is the new modern prog phenomenon!!
Thanks for posting this, Billy. I'm sure Jimmy has a *whole new* appreciation for Steve Howe after having to work his way through all that Yes material.
Yeah, I am a very big fan of Steve Howe..4 me he is my favorite guitar player (of course together with Rabin, Fripp, Hackett and Guilmour)..but by some reason when he plays with Yes (lately ..the last 8 years) we has sticked himself to a more jazzy style and lost his virtuoso psycodelic and magic rock style..I think he need to get back to this way..i like the jazzy style too,but I guess you get the picture
Boy I sure do agree with that take on Howe! Jimmy's the biggest Howe fan of all and he does him proud, but first hes does Peter Banks and after he does Trevor and even Billy! Funny stuff. Jimmy has a very distinct style of his own, but is a world class chameleon. He's very respectful of these melodies. As Yes fans know, these are parts not solos. He plays them well!
Like it!

Tony is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. He's more of a fan of the fans. Glad to see him still in top notch and good health.

Billy Sherwood is a class act--talent, chops, spirituality, plus he can actually get along with
some very difficult people (not the guys in Circa: : )

what model of bass is Billy Sherwood playing here? It looks similar to a Rickenbacker but it's something else.

Wow! You're not kidding! What happened to Rick! This time it can't be bitterness, I imagine, since his son is sitting in.

Rick's website confirms he doesn't feel he's up to touring and frankly thinks Jon shouldn't either.

It would be cool if Circa: toured with Yes. Maybe even Yes, Circa:, and Asia together! The time is Circa: 2008. The place is Asia. The word is Yes.

I'd like to think Steve has a whole new appreciation for Jimmy, as well. Especially after the bad feelings toward him with regard to "Union".

u are right! though he's a chameleon playing the differents styles through Yes History..he has his own particular style.
In the Circa album he is not only powefull but virtuoso..specially in "Brotherhood of Man"..This album is the best prog work made in a while !!
