Actually this is not a Yes-track. It is entitled 'Création du Monde' (Creation of the World) and it comes from Vangelis album 'L'Apocalypse des Animaux'. Naturally, Vangelis has some connections to Yes, but this music was entirely written and played by him...
Topo...the greatest of many YES albums...to deep for the casual listen...you have to listen repeatedly to all YES music for it to come through...then you can't stop listening...for ever.
It is my advantage to point out yes as a musical group are a revolution in music both at the time these talented guys but thier efforts in to motion as well they never copied any other musical groups music.All so sport the fact of search a musical leader to relate thier music
they start with yogi and find there core values in jesus christ!
@bobbyshou And Bobby, wouldn't you not know, Revealing!...very quickly actually so that I did not know what had happened but KNEW something. At that same time, I had just dug out Close to the Edge just as I 'realized' a change..and have now become fully entrenched in all of their music..as Jon has gone solo, some songs reflect some core beliefs (Just One Man)..but they do not want to seclude any listener out is my impression. "I've crossed over the River...I am Home". Very Wizard of Oz 'ish.

Whoa! No Steve"s the protaganist my fellow student.He brought Mr.Wakeman back into the Yes fold.Jon actually was busy sking with Alan.Chris was taking long baths.Please kindred people Mr Howe designed the THE STARSHIP.Wurm.

interesting! ;) starting at :35, the chord progression sounds similar to the section right before Soon on Relayer. wonder if Yes drew on the influence?
Miałem 15 lat gdy pierwszy raz to usłyszałem na "radiu Luxemburg " i od razu pokochałem "YES" ta miłość trwa do dzisiejszego dnia, choć to już 38 lat!!
*VANGELIS* = prog music must. V's 'personal best' includes *"Aphrodites Child- 666"*; This; &then came • ¡Z Frendz of Mr.Cairo! • -w/Jon. Devastating- -Liberating- (cue angels): A Revelation, higher love, within pop song. Goooooal! Moraz tho, comes alive onstage- w/YES Fi-ya!! But, after tour? Plop!- M's into pleasant riffage. Maybe Wakeman's da same. But W's Music_Hall, & Church aspects 2gether, =THEATRIC- What we'll even pay 2Xperience. Does 'composer' Vangelis evah perform, eh?
Very dreamy. It almost feels like watching the genesis of topographic oceans before my eyes. I vividly remember buying the album in a now defunct record store in Harvard Square during the 70's . Thanks!
At 4:30 you can hear the Olias sounds Jon must have sought to recreate. Either that, or Vangelis was the true musician behind Olias (which is what I've always wondered). Some stories tell that Vangelis couldn't join Yes due to "labor restrictions". Vangelis is definitely a master of sound.
My biorhythms drop off the chart if I don't hear "The Revealing Science of God" once a month. Been that way for 32 years now..... Never get tired of hearing that one.

He was born near Paris in 1802 and 'coincidentally' in 1902 the Society of Jesus(Jesuits) were expelled from France for the 3rd and last time. The Society of Jesus(Jesuits) have been expelled from 83 countries, city states and cities and their pope is ARAMIS AND HE IS ALSO KNOWN AS THE COUNT OF MONTE CHRISTO(GENERAL OF THE JESUITS).
@adkpeakboy Michael Tsarion is the worlds premier conspiracy researcher/lecturer/author. Leo Zagami, Jordan Maxwell and Alexandre Dumas pere are highly informative as well. p.s. Melting Euphoria is similar to Ozric Tentacles and Gong.
@yestopographic73 Beautiful work my friend...a beautiful introducction...Congratulatios!!!...This and "Jesuschrist Superstar" are someones of the best producctions from 1973...Greatings from Perú

@kramsmada it is the Beginning of Blade Runner or what came to be that movie..I'm still listening to it and can't help seeing it in my 'ead too so to speaK_JKL
Vangelis with YES!!?? WHOA!!! now that's a spicey meatball. It's like when Keith Emerson mentioned that at one point they had talks with Jimmi Hendrix about joining ELP!!! ICONOCLASTIC!!!
Pausch4711 is correct. This is "Creation Du Monde" by Vangelis from his 1973 album "L`Apocalypse Des Animaux" . It was used by YES as their opening piece during their 1974-76 tours. It`s widely known that Vangelis was touted as Rick Wakeman`s replacemant in Yes but egos got in the way (namely Steve Howe) and Pat Moraz got the job instead. I always wonder what it would have been like to have an entity like Vangelis in Yes. I`m sure an album like Tormato would not exist. I could live with that.
This music was used by YES to introduce TALES during Topographic Tour (1973-74)."
It was also used by YES during RELAYER tour (1974-1975) but in a different way. To my knowledge, Création du Monde was not used by YES during YESSOLOS tour (1976).
i have a bootleg recording of the tour and it just has the regular firebird suite intro then they do the close to the edge album in full followed by the entire topographic record then an encore of roundabout
@yestopographic73 The interesting thing about this song, is after listening to it a few times you get the feeling Yes was really influenced by this piece when they wrote this album.
@yestopographic73 Correct, sir. in addition, Vangelis was used as an accompanying kb on Going For The One.Vangelis and Wakeman frequently collaborated and shared work, ergo the Yes connection. My uncle did security at Sheffield Studios and introduced me to Eddie Olford and Squire in the mid 70's, I was a wee lad!
you make a great point on tormato doing the punk thing, but youre talking a whole different era of YES. tormato started the "new wave" YES, and like genesis' "then there were three" is very unfocused; and nowhere NEAR the best of what the band has to offer. Tales From Topographic Oceans is YES at its progressive PEAK, while tormato - i would say - is a whole different band in its own right. its hard to contrast the two albums they are SO freakin different
@janny108 Mostly Steve Howe`s ego, it was Steve`s attitude to Tony Kaye (as well as Kaye`s lackadaisical attitude to moogs, mellotrons etc) that led to his replacement with Rick Wakeman. In that respect, good on you Steve (although, in my opinion, Kaye`s organ sound is superior than Wakeman`s). I just wish Pat Moraz was kept on after the relayer/solos tours into Going for the one, I think the first real backwards step YES made was Wakeman rejoining in 76, probably Squire`s idea.
@Johnnywr It was also widely rumored that Jimi Hendrix was going to join Emerson Lake & Palmer. That just makes me shake my head. I often think about the what if's when it comes to Vangelis and what he could have done with Yes.
@swaggs Carl Palmer has confirmed the rumour to be true in an interview. He was suggested by Mitch Mitchell who Keith Emerson asked to join before Palmer. Mitchell knew Hendrix was bored with the music he was currently playing and was ready for new thing. They were supposed to have fool around rehearsals after Isle of Wight festivat to test ideas and personalities. The death of Hendrix sealed the decision for trio. Randy Bachman was other alternative but he went to form BTO.
Vangelis was so out there musically and creatively it's hard for me to find the adjectives and superlatives. Yes was (I purposely use past tense) is quite simply an incredible band but then I think we could say that about most Progressive Rock bands. The concept album that is so inextricably linked to Prog Rock permitted rock music to take on deeper meanings and a richer musical tenor. Hendrix with EL&P. Whew that boggles the mind.
Very nice tune - but wrong tune! This isn't Yes, this is Vangelis!!!! To be more precise, it is Vangelis' tune "Creation du Monde" from hos "l'Apocalypse des Animaux" album from 1973, written for Frederic Rossif's french TV series of the same name. So those of you who thought it sounded a bit like "Blade Runner" were partially right - Vangelis wrote the music to "Blade Runner" too. "Creation du Monde" appeared in a few episodes of Carl Sagan's TV Series "Cosmos" of the early 1980's.
All of the rich content of this video may not mean much to those who were not a part of this musical movement/era, yet to me it is the essence of inspirational musical devotion ~ to conjure forth thoughts and feelings into manifestation. It blew me away in '74. Now 25 years later I'm attempting to actually play this material (on drums) with others who have taken the time to learn it. Listening to Tales is one universe. Playing Tales is another universe ! ~ Blessings.
Wow! This kicks ass ! The sounds are appealing to my ears and mind. I would like to hear this shit all the time. It reminds me of "Blade Runner" the movie. Thanx a lot for posting this music. I have enter in another sphere, if you will, of music in the 70"s and beyond, in the year 2009. Its to much for me to express my love of this sound without any substance. Thanx again!
As a side note... this musical piece (Creation du Monde) was also used to great effect in Carl Sagan's 'Cosmos' series, during several of Sagan's dandelion spacecraft journeys.
"Music" is the language some of us use and understand to make this world work without having to create or look for new worlds ! I wish more people would use it.
@SteffanLlwyd oh but we can. God made you a creator ... maybe not in this world ... but in the next where traveling at the speed of light means eternity ... you can get from one end of 'your' heavenly domain in seconds not years, you'll have a lot of time on your hands to continue to build and expand his world at the speed of thought. "For let us create man in our image" right Genesis 1:7
@directorwvp2 Ah! I'm not religious myself and have no wish for life after death... this gives life more urgency and importance; well, in my experience it does! All the best.
Actually. The lyrics Jon wrote with Vangelis is not lovesongs to a woman, its for love he felt for his brother. Though noone realises that. But I can hear it.
No words....Just feelings......AMBIENTSPHERE......It reminds me of the old VANGELIS. Anyway it is known that VANGELIS was ment to be in the band but he didn't stay at the end.
Thank you so much for this! Of all the great early YES concerts I've attented TALES will always stand out as one of the most moving and transcendent Live experiences ever!
Actually this is not a Yes-track. It is entitled 'Création du Monde' (Creation of the World) and it comes from Vangelis album 'L'Apocalypse des Animaux'. Naturally, Vangelis has some connections to Yes, but this music was entirely written and played by him...

To be more precise, it is Vangelis' tune "Creation du Monde" from hos "l'Apocalypse des Animaux" album from 1973, written for Frederic Rossif's french TV series of the same name. So those of you who thought it sounded a bit like "Blade Runner" were partially right - Vangelis wrote the music to "Blade Runner" too. "Creation du Monde" appeared in a few episodes of Carl Sagan's TV Series "Cosmos" of the early 1980's.

@pausch4711 Hi, Is this part of the "Tales Of Topographic Oceans" album? Thanks!

@silverfox4743 No, it's not. It's not even music by Yes. It's music by Vangelis: "Creation du Monde" from his "L'apocalypse des Animaux" album.

I was a huge fan and saw the Tales tour.
I played them endlessly and never even thought about tantras, etc. Just thought of pretty landscapes.
I'm a born-again christian and I love Yes. They appeal to everyone!

All of the rich content of this video may not mean much to those who were not a part of this musical movement/era, yet to me it is the essence of inspirational musical devotion ~ to conjure forth thoughts and feelings into manifestation. It blew me away in '74. Now 25 years later I'm attempting to actually play this material (on drums) with others who have taken the time to learn it. Listening to Tales is one universe. Playing Tales is another universe ! ~ Blessings.

Wow! This kicks ass ! The sounds are appealing to my ears and mind. I would like to hear this shit all the time. It reminds me of "Blade Runner" the movie. Thanx a lot for posting this music. I have enter in another sphere, if you will, of music in the 70"s and beyond, in the year 2009. Its to much for me to express my love of this sound without any substance. Thanx again!

As a side note... this musical piece (Creation du Monde) was also used to great effect in Carl Sagan's 'Cosmos' series, during several of Sagan's dandelion spacecraft journeys.

It is a pity that we cannot make actual new Worlds as easily as they can be made with music!

"Music" is the language some of us use and understand to make this world work without having to create or look for new worlds ! I wish more people would use it.

@SteffanLlwyd oh but we can. God made you a creator ... maybe not in this world ... but in the next where traveling at the speed of light means eternity ... you can get from one end of 'your' heavenly domain in seconds not years, you'll have a lot of time on your hands to continue to build and expand his world at the speed of thought. "For let us create man in our image" right Genesis 1:7

@directorwvp2 Ah! I'm not religious myself and have no wish for life after death... this gives life more urgency and importance; well, in my experience it does! All the best.

Before Vangelis was born he wrote Angelic hymns in heaven.
Thankfully God allowed him to come to earth and spend a little time with us.

Ah, Vangelis. John loves him. Seeing this concert live, I've been told, really blew people's minds. Thank you for this great post.

Actually. The lyrics Jon wrote with Vangelis is not lovesongs to a woman, its for love he felt for his brother. Though noone realises that. But I can hear it.
