Yes - Talk part 1

[coronaimports]

Great song, it brings memories of great times in my life. Greetings from Guadalajara, Mexico.

[mikedans55]

Yeah this is an awesome album and fantastically produced by Rabin. Really masterful. He took the best of yes and knew how to package it in the best way. It's not old Yes, but it's damn good - meaning it's just different, not less. But the engineering is really really nice. I like the way the whole band sounds really raw and up front, the best combination of well rehearsed and spontaneous performance is captured.

[vivelavidarocka]

@mikedans55 I would say for the contrary, he took the best of him and very intelligently incorporated it into the Yesmusic FEEL (hate to use "sound"). As a matter of fact it feels like the "old" YES but with a facial lift (well needed by then)

And the reason I found more tangible to explain why it feels that way with this album, was the fresher approach of his playing technique along with his composition skills for an old formula of guitar oriented songs. Just like "the classic Yes"

We younger fans of the band, in certain way, are lucky to have discovered them at the time we did. Somehow we didn't have that preconceived notion that everything the band did after Tormato is not worthy of the brand YES, and fully enjoyed their 80's, 90's and so on works

Don't understand certain fans that got stuck with their 70's sound and style. Progressiveness and/or experimentation didn't stop with such album, they just got hold of other sources to "play" with from those different decades

[vivelavidarocka]

A shame that some people that wrongly call themselves "die hard Yes fans" (the ones that believe Yesmusic stopped with Tormato or Drama) missed one of their best albums.

[vivelavidarocka]

Talk is awesome. You can tell Rabin was finally getting (especially with this song) his superb composer skills between the confines of what we perceive as Yesmusic or classic Yes style. Too bad he left the band after this album. I'm sure if he would have had the chance to make a follow up to this album it would had finally been recognized as one of the most important music creators in the history of Yes (for the old timers fans. For me, he already is)

[sponsler]

This song is about breaking the Spiral of Silence Album Title is How to Do this...

[grandirensemble]

pure beauté

[Dariuszkrak]

In my opinion it is the last time the real YES. Love it!

[johnsonia25]

Great YES music here. Thanks for sharing. Did this CD TALK also include Trevor Rabin? I know Trevor Rabin moved on from YES in the 90s and produced the music for some really great movies like Armageddon and Enemy of the State. I wonder if he also was still part of the band when TALK was released. Does anyone know??

[arweiss100]

@johnsonia25 "Talk" in 1994 was the last Yes album with Trevor Rabin, who left Yes within the year and is since become an Award winning A-List film composer. Trevor produced "Talk", and also plays guitars, keys, some bass, (besides Chris), sings lead on several songs and co-wrote the songs on the album with Jon. IMO the best songs on the album are the very meaningful & artistic "Endless Dream" and "Where Will You Be". I very much like "Real Love", "Walls", "I Am Waiting",...

[sponsler]

@arweiss100 There is something about "I Am Waiting"..the first time I heard it, it seemed like I had already heard many times before...it seems strange that although I've had this CD since it came out, I only listened to it a few times then shelved it. Pulled it out two days ago and stuck it in the car... grateful for that inspiration to do so ...like life just took on a new path.

[arweiss100]

@johnsonia25 I love the entire album, and for me, mostly because of Trevor's far reaching creative & artistic vision & scope on "Talk", this album is imbued with so much purpose, meaning, deep emotion, spirituality, innovation and imagination..trancendent, moving, evocative, and years before its time. What an epic work of sublime, inspiring depth & beauty.

[blsnewreligion]

Best..song...ever

[DMBrules826]

shit is amazing



[YouDummy]

Life long Yes fan. This is the last Yes album I enjoyed from front to back.

[bianchi1885]

This song (all parts) is simply epic and perfect.

[theluigiteam543]

It's OK, but it's no Close to the Edge.

[jonesaljones]

Unknown epic song

[rmiranda2011]

Yes é a melhor banda de rock progressivo para se ouvir durante uma viagem na estrada. o som dá uma verdadeira nostalgia. Este cd Talk é um dos se não for o melhor!!!!

[PeterHebert123]

I cannot find this album on iTunes.

[stevabus]

awesome!!!!

[mus1cat]

This is the best song (part) of the album. Sorry, but I think this album sounded better with Squire and Rabin doing vocals. Listen to the harmonies of this song with them and listen to how strained Anderson's voice is in this. Rabin has a really good voice. Squire too. Album would have been much better without Anderson singing lead.

[va4rebs]

Talk is a very underrated record.

[ghostdancer1974]

@va4rebs Talk was the first YES album I bought and have been in love with this band ever since! I personally think the band, in all its incarnations, is/has been/will be constantly underrated.

[va4rebs]

@ghostdancer1974 Wow, TALK is your first YES album! You must be young and I, old? I have been listening to YES since the early 70s. It's is great that their following has crossed so many decades! Welcome too the family!!

[JACKIFIEDCRACK]

4:05 ... KORN? Just when I thought Yes couldn't cover any more branches of the rock genre... They sound like frickin' Korn! Yes, I love you, you continue to surprise me with all of these different explorations of music...

[ASide45]

Thanks for posting man, seeing as "Talk" is out of print. I wore my cassette tape out, so it is long gone...

[estudioazulxalapa]

TALK was the first recording entirely made in Hard Disc system. From engineering point of view that was very important. All thanks to Rabin geniality.

[mus1cat]

This is a great song. Too bad Trevor Rabin didn't sing every song. Jon Anderson's voice is shot. He should sing in the high ranges. Trevor made this song!

[mus1cat]

@mus1cat I meant to say, Anderson should not sing in the high ranges anymore. The harmonizing of this song at the end is great between Rabin and Squire. Leave Jon to sing the lower quieter songs.

[augermurmurdnb]

mp3ify is site to dl this jam. google mp3ify.

[Tippersnore]

A nice Yes moment late in their career.

[Niki166]

Talk was an incredible album, love I am waiting and the calling.

Yes ftw!

[TheGarf40]

brilliant track!!!!!!!!

[Niki166]

Love yes imo the can easily rival Pink floyd..amazing stuff

[Agu2art]

@Niki166 They get OVER Pink Floyd. I mean this guys are the REAL STUFF. I like Pink Floyd, but this guys just blow mi mind anytime i lisen to them... And thats every day since the day a knew them, when i was like ... Well, i lisen to then before i was born, becose of my father, but i buy my first YES album 3 years ago, just to get one of my own... =)

[Niki166]

@Agu2art I have to agree mate, I've been listening to them since I was young, my dad owns almost every one of their records their style of music is great, love yes

[jfayiii]

Respond to this video...Musician magazine did some in depth reviews of albums every month back in the day. Somewhere in the middle of the usual reviews was a box of blurbs - one or two line reviews. When this album was released, it was reviewed like this Yes - Talk: "Shut up."

I never read that rag again. Karma's a bitch, that magazine didn't exist long after that and I stopped caring what a review said.

[NeilThompson30]

Great album - their best since Relayer. How could a band release this classic in the 90s and be regarded as hasbeens by evryone apart from Yes fans - it's a brilliant album - DJs in this country let them down - I was in Japan in 2001 and The Calling was on the radio while I was in the hotel!

[AlkemiA1212]

10 min of nirvana.......

[DMBrules826]

pure genious

[petsounds75]

I like this album ok...it's better than it's generally regarded as. But, the heavy compression of the drums and the 90% replacement of Squire's crunchy bass with keyboard-bass takes a lot of great possibility from the album overall.

[Mikelovesamanda1]

Most definit;ly the best Rabin Yes album...

[Dd8505]

Amazing, Beautiful

[FUCKINGMOMO68]

Absolument merveilleux !!!

changements superbes, sons mélodieux,

vraie composition, ma chanson préférée...

[TIMOT361]

I thought this was the best they did with Trevor Rabin....It got back to the old sound.

You hear Squire singing and playing.

[mada0207]

omg i haven't heard this song for three years just gave me the chills listening to it =)))) i have it on CD somewhere 0.o burned it

[diosesygenerales]

what happened with the Introduction of the song? it is a wonder... why the absence of these wonderful 2 minutes of music?

[drjekyll66]

salut, very young Latin musician. I thought the same....

This Title is in complete version Titanicly;

The last pomp rock recording ! Awesome

[ellu96]

I have uploaded Silent Spring (the "prologue" of this song) It is in my channel (:

[Stinger1920]

@ellu96 Keep it up. Yes rocks. I dare any of today's contemporary so called artists to create music as timeless as this.

[Perbuatan1883]

@diosesygenerales ...absolutely !!

[ROPdude]

03:26- Just gives you chills

[jarretaderas]

one of the best "yes" songs... no matter what ...

[apleasantsymmetry]

sorry for the double post i was limited to so many words.

i did not mean to offend anyone , if i did i am sorry . yes is still one my favorite groups .

[apleasantsymmetry]

unlike crimson this is sadly not the norm . a good example is what the moody blues are doing now .

the one and only bill bruford knew when to move on and he continued to break ground until his recent announcement to retire , but i know every time bruford moved on , something exiting happened

[apleasantsymmetry]

you have a good point . i think i am just sad the hey days for most of these ground breaking groups like yes and elp are over . while some groups like king crimson continue to push forward and make interesting albums .

[apleasantsymmetry]

keys to the ascension 1+2 were was a weak attempt to regain a connection to thier past .

i love yes but i wish they wouldn't re-unite until they have something freash  and inspired to present , but like the moody blues they don't know when to stop.

[apleasantsymmetry]

i love yes ,but this is perhaps yes' worst album . its a string of good ideas with very little inspiration.

yes is one of those great groups that comes along once in a life time , but does not know when to take a break until a real inspiration comes along.

the clsoest they got in thier later period to a real inspiration was abwh and then they decided to make union which was an uneven album.

they followed union with

talk ,the ladder , magnification , all weak albums .

[madrasphall]

To some extent this is true, The Ladder did contain Homeworld however, Talk did have Endless Dream and Magnification 'In the Presence of' - all of which were pretty good additions to the Yes history ?

Amigo "diosesygeneralesl": sigo...ya que no me "alcanzò" el espacio que "You

Tube" nos permite (500 caracteres y un poquito menos, tambièn). Decìa que tampoco uno puede suplantar a JON. Pero con el tiempo me gustò escuchar un voz lìder diferente, pero...¡ojo!, circunstancialmente. Es mi humilde opiniòn: RABÌN debe figurar en el "Yesmusseun". Pero YES fuè: Anderson, Squire, Howe, Wakeman y White. Brudford se lo perdiò por ir tras King Crimson en el mejor momento de Yes.

[ellu96]

Sorry, I dont speak Spanish ^^'

[Krap1105]

@ellu96 than translate it with a translater

[ChanelJota]

@ellu96 learn!

[diosesygenerales]

@lusich94 un poco complicado esto del youtube nunca me aviso que me diste una respuesta, gracias por la aclaraciòn, antes yo pensaba que Rabin era un roquero locoy nada mas, pero hace ya mas de un año que me dic cuenta de que es un genio de la música que creo todas esas memorables canciones ochenteras y noventeras, ahora es una influencia para mi como guitarrista y le haré un tributo en mis posibilidades pronto en cuanto pueda subir mis videos... Yes dbería estar en el Rock Hall

[diosesygenerales]

@lusich94 a mi tampoco me alcanzaron los caracteres jeje... Tales from Topographic Oceans de 1973 fue el primer album de la historia en tener el galardón de ser album de oro antes de su salida por la gran cantidad de pedidos!! asi como Close to the Edge, Relayer y los otros 3 (sin Rabin aùn) fueron discos de oro y esta era la segunda banda mas popular despues de Pink Floyd debido a sus ventas. Estas 2 decadas fueron de Yes y nadie lo puede evitar, Rabin es injustamente impopular

[sponsler]

@diosesygenerales Sus mejores discos (Google translate... ;-)

[UKGameMaster]

@lusich94 its an english band, mate...

[Ler0ytjuh]

SUPER!

[WishmasterPHT]

Thanks for Posting. Great song. beautiful album. I like it.
