i mean i do miss jon, but people need to understand that its actually physically impossible right now for him to sing and you and i with the state he's in. jon was great but i really wish people understood more.
Getting Benoit in has done wonders! I think Jon Anderson stopped them playing certain songs. These guys have so much more fun now that they are playing stuff off Drama. Machine Messiah on this tour was amazing.
Was that the one at Syria Mosque? I remember John Anderson saying he had a sore throat. May have been 72, not sure. I think Edgar Winter opened the show.
I saw the 1974 show at the Civic Arena, There was an opening act but I do not remember who it was. I will never ever forget that show. I love watching classic Yes concert videos, I have a lot of them on DVD.
I saw them in Hamilton on this same tour. The butchered Owner of a Lonely Heart!! And as for Anderson's replacement, this guy did one hell of a job. They definitely nedd Ricky back on the keys
I just don't know. There seems to me to be a spiritual void without Anderson. While I think that this definitely shows that Yes' music could go on literally forever, with new generations carrying the torch, so to speak, can the original consciousness still be present ? Hmmm. I am not being judgemental, it is just that I have wondered about this for years.
You are totally right, I agree w/ every word you said. Well explained. Even tho their performances show their music is timeless w/ new people coming in to carry it forward, the original consciousness might be absent. It's mind-boggling. Benoit & Oliver are so loyal to the essence of the music. But the original members are the only ones who can always bring the precision of all the parts of the music and ideas perfectly.. Besides, Jon is the most unique artist I've set eyes/ears on.
Benoît didn't have the black vest in Albany, so this has to be the casino.
You must have gone to both. Do you live in between the two, or did you have to go twice this leg?
I guess there and some other places, they really don't like this being done, so that could be why it isn't available for every show. Can't win 'em all!
OH MY GOSH, Mike...what camera did you use? It's excellent. Thank you for uploading this, it's wonderful.
What a lucky, lucky crowd. And Benoit's the luckiest man alive, for the record. Yeah, that spin at 7:17 is so cute. He's obviously on fire, lovin every minute.
Oh thanks so much Mike for taping this. I know it is difficult to get away with recording at the Sun-and it sounds good for a youtube download. Great show-great people, wondrous time for us all!
I LOVE THE BASS!!!

I love how the singer gets so into the song, even though it's not Jon. And I don't know of any other band where I enjoy the keys more.

I love YES. I have been a fan of YES since 1969. I got to see their 1974 tour stop in Pittsburgh which I will never forget.

For me this song is well played.
The vocalist has a good voice to be able to bring ahead Yes music.
It will do remain during the next generations.
Even with the lyrics of Anderson e.
Thanks for during.
