YES - Awaken - P1 (Montreux 2003) - Rick Wakeman

[MrGonzorhea]

I gotta think most of the vocals here are pre-recorded... I love Jon more than any singer, but it is clear in this video that he's hurting vocally. And I have seen him live probably 7 times, so I'm not just *singing* outta my ass.

[PACKyourSHITfolks420]

Sweet, I've been looking for this song for a while. This is one of my favorites.

[psfirthoffith]

Thank you Maya Zlatogorka. This truly is classic stuff.

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

his rigid so clearly workings of formula factual man stripped of will and soul, all is left for you, ,and in the end, like sasquatch whispering, shhhhh

all is love for you

dc al coda

[GenesisAfterglow]

What a brilliant demonstration of their unique ability to put tunes together

[SuperMegaUberGenius]

like the time i ran away

about the week-long wine 'internships' he and bandmate Geddy Lee did at Joseph Phelps Winery and at Turley Wine Cellars. He fondly recalls how once he and Geddy were so

turned arund and you were standing close to me

[pg123fish]

probablly the best thing they've ever done. and yet absolutely no airplay. thank god for youtube.

[SULAMITA505]

Maravilhoso. Sem comentários, é fechar os olhos e ouvir , e viajar pra longe , pra perto de tudo que se ama.

[MitjaShi]

what's the monster squire is playing?

[VideoMask93]

@MitjaShi A three-neck bass. Four-string fretted, Four-string fretless, and six-string tuned in octaves.

[murphoto]

absolutely fucking beautiful !



[bubblabu]

This is great stuff

[gsc1ugs]

Unless rachmanivof was reborn this cannot be beaten has the greatest song of the twentieth century.

[BigUconnFan]

I feel soooooooooo incredible listening to this. No band can capture LIFE like YES. PERIOD

[Tippersnore]

This song helped me teach -en verbs to my ESL students.

[jenniferlam90]

so soulful. love jon

[FreddieSausage]

C'mon chaps...we really need to tighten up the staccato @7.25 !!!!

[harrispunyon]

Steve Howe is playing a Steinberger GM3-12 during this section. It's his current choice in electric 12 string guitars.

[Vantage94]

What kind of guitar does howe use here? Steinberger? what model?

[progrockr616]

Gorgeous .. one of my faves from way back when.. great post... agreed YES always sounded better with Wakeman.... like Genesis with Gabriel

[GabrielDhalaman2]

@progrockr616 NOT THAT MUCH,man...not that much,peter gabriel was the soul,the man behind genesis greatest albums,a comparison would be yes wihtout jon anderson,yes without him made Drama,a good but weak album,yes without wakeman did relayer,a masterpiece,but i prefer with him as you do and every one does

[julyvalls]

I don´t know why you write in the title Rick Wakeman , the song is from Yes

[MayaZlatogorka]

@julyvalls because for me real YES is only with Rick Wakeman as in this perfomance...

[gideonquinn]

@MayaZlatogorka What, even with the bum notes he hits in the introduction?

[nanodelay]

@MayaZlatogorka Wakeman was on 7 of 20 albums of Yes, in my opinion Real Yes its not wakeman, Yes is a band, besides This song was composed by Anderson and Howe!!

[psfirthoffith]

Yes needs Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman.I know Rick's son Oliver is replacing him now, but that is kind of like Jason drumming instead of John Bonham(r.i.p.) for Zeppelin although different circumstances.This 2003 Montreux epic is total proof. Let's hope Chris,Steve,and Alan wake up and realize Benoit is not Jon Anderson.

[TheGEEman60]

welcome back to the longago going for the one l p release
