This must be a fun song to play, especially on guitar.
-
Awesome. This piece is God. You did God
-
Kewl!
-
@djdaigl2 And Berklee College degree or no, he probably had a LOT more respect for Steve Howe after he had to learn to play that one!
-
Pathetic attempt really. It isn't YES.
-
everyone is pretty spot on! love the vocals and the guitarist is fantastic!
-
A cover of a cover of a cover!

This is a great song by YES, not a cover band. WTF are you listing it as Yes when it isn't? That's misleading.

The cassette boomed through my Panasonic Walkman as I hike to class at Humboldt State in the ain , 1982...
every morning, this would get me to the university, a cup of hot coffee, and my courses...
the walk home was a repeat- i focused on Chris as I was playing bass with Paull Rubin and I wanted to be "cutting "edge...
i long for those days

Really Cool! I can't wait to play this with my band (Nov 28, 09) at the Ramona Mainstage in North San Diego County. All of these musicians are quite worthy.

Thanks, Well Bryan Beller is a renound bass player who's played with just about eveyone at this point but is now touring with DethClok. Dion Paci has a band in New York i think, I've been doing a dueling piano sing-along gig for about 17 years now and still loving it...

Great rendition, you guys are all over it.
Everyone nailed there instrument's part, and on the vocal harmonies as well.
Lead singer sounds just like Jon Anderson in his upper register.
The sound quality isn't that good, but I can hear it was all there. Great job, guys.

Thanks a lot. The vocals are always the toughest to do when it comes to Yes and sometimes these fall short but we gave it our best shot.
