YES AWAKEN LIVE 1977 (long complete version) pt.1

AWAKEN
THE SONG OF SONGS

In 1977 during the YESSHOWS Tour (Going For The One) AWAKEN was much longer than the LP release. The YES Masterpiece included a magnificent 'Prelude' with fantastic Alan White vibraphone solo -Prelude sometimes called "Flight Jam"- .

Here it is a complete live AWAKEN recording.

It is taken from Scandinavium Gothenburg (Sweden) performance (November 12 1977) and presented here with photos from the same show.

Clip is completed with related Roger Dean Art and already known members photos.

May I suggest You Three Little Things ?

I am totally stunned by this introduction! I've never heard Yes do this, but wish they would have done more! These guys were so ahead of their time, so innovative, so totally unique! WOW!

[AldousHuxleysCat]

thank you - thank you --- I have wanted to hear this version again - I wasn't a fan of this song until I saw them preform it live in 77 - the opening made it somehow more complete - wish they would have kept it in or released and official version - thanks again

Where is the beginning of this great song? It seems as though we have caught them half way through!

[TheLlywelyn]

This song is high art. I don't know anything in rock to touch it. It is the masterpiece of a truly great band.

[arweiss100]

Thank you, this is just sublime!

[visog]

Wow!

[SanJorgio]

This makes me want to listen to Mike Oldfield :)

As a teacher of the ``Ageless Wisdom Teachings``this song speaks of the great awakening that we all one day will go through as we pass through the gates of Initiation.- ``Master of images-songs cast a light on You``-
