Not sure if anyone made this observation already, but...well first let me say that I could not have enjoyed this any more. The thing I find puzzling is that the last day of recording, possibly the...

Welcome Back, My Friends, to the Show That Never Ends – Ladies and Gentlemen, ...and Palmer

btw, released exactly 10 years ago today.

great instrumental work by Stefen Podell, no orchestra.

In a Word: Yes

but he was on the final seinfeld

puts me in the mind of song of seven

youtube keeps pushing rite of spring videos at me now, lol. This one is interesting, but you have to overlook the silliness of the first few seconds

by new I assume you mean different. there were no *new* songs played.

ps, I've really enjoyed these "epics" guys.

the symphonic tour opened with a projected animation by bob cesca. the band emerged onstage as the yes logo was full screen, I dont think all shows had this as the animation wasn't ready in time for...

well yeah, the dates are right there in the header. I dont know about you, but if you asked me for a list of my all time favorite anything, that list doesn't change that often. So with Wilson having...

interesting article, wilson recommending concept albums.

"I got in touch with him just last month, because I want him (Steven Wilson) to remix Olias in 5.1. That's one of the projects we want to get done before Christmas."

lol

Which is doubly strange because on another episode about either Genesis or Gabriel, they made the claim that Gabriel single handedly brought about the birth of prog music, but on the show about the...

AXS is by far the most adult rock friendly, as well as progressive friendly network, hands down. In just the last few days they have aired part 1 of Yes' 35 anniv concert as well Yes Live at the...

I think this was tinkering by Eddie Offord. This just from some vague memory, I don't have anything to back this up so feel free to disregard.

in case you're scratching your head, it can be heard just before the lyric "and through the rhythm of moving slowly" @ 15:44 to 15:55

and there are a lot of these out there

Eloquently stated. And Yes, I think you are actually correct that a nod can have a wider definition. It seems the use of "nod" is a little loosey goosey. Usually when I hear the term is when a solo...

Before I say this, I admit it's a little bit nitpicky and I think it's really great that you enjoyed the album. But here you used the phrase, has the most nods to "Song of Seven," and in the article...

so...um, I assume physical copies have started to arrive?

Ms Dawson, I think you have too much baggage to enjoy this Ocean cruise. Science in the title isn't referring to studying God. Its refers to the unfolding nature of the universe and its inhabitants.

Jonesy: And lets just make this clear, Yes featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman, that's what you have to call yourself?

Trevor: No its actually...we can call ourselves Yes if we...

perfect band to perform invention of knowledge live.

april "fools"

When the Close to the Edge Blu Ray came out, I was 100% on board with Wilson's surround style, primarily how the vocals were placed around all the room. Since then, the mix philosophy seemed to...

The Blu ray includes both versions, with and without. The Dance of the Dawn version brings the sound of the ocean waves much higher in the mix than did the expanded and remastered Rhino version. With...

all members of Yes musically benefited from being in the presence of other members. synergy

what do you feed them in the evening?

from bad to worse. Yesworld still showing:


YES – TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS

Steven Wilson 2016 Remixes
NOW AVAILABLE TO PREORDER AT AMAZON

1 BluRay & 3 CDs:...

Just a thought on the "vocal" aspect of IOK.

What would Yes fans want? A Yes album.

You may have liked Fly From Here, but it leaned more towards the Drama-Yes sound while Heaven and Earth was...

Lets not kid ourselves, IOK is more Yes-like than Heaven and Earth. And I was in the minority that liked H&E.






Well yeah, we have heard the Tales/Olias comparisions, including comments...

lol

Its really more of a fantasy chant, like on Olias

Do ga do riytan, Sha too raytan
Gan matta sha pa
Mutto matto mutto
Radan atto raddan atto
Stou to mutto
Sha go teka
Sha go teka Dei

There is an extended section on IOK where the background vocals deserve a mention.


Do you remember back in 1970's when fans were still in shock just after the Beatles broke up and George...

It would be unrealistic to expect unanimous support, however the response has been mostly very positive.

Not on purpose? Or is it?

IOK is full of little nods to various things. But a nod isn't usually considered a rip off as much as a tribute. Its usually just a short quotation of a musical phrase....

maybe twice in your life will the full moon land on the summer solstice. tonight is that night. it looks like a giant strawberry.

pretty nice company to be in, Yes?


The epic sized 23 minute Invention of Knowledge suite opens and ends with an obvious nod to Tales, the sound of ocean waves overlaid with that violin-like...

I realize you are not responding to me, but maybe I should explain what I meant by dense. Pop music is traditionally built on repetition. But there are times when these songs are always in motion,...

This is probably the most layered Yes related vocal work to date, seen as a whole. If you enjoy We Have Heaven or maybe the very opening mantra of Tales, you may enjoy this work. For example, the...

I would bet November

and its about time





¥€$

Quite a long time back (a.m.y.) I floated the idea (somewhat cynically) of using a logo made of the yen, euro and dollar symbols, or ¥€$. But come to think of it, no actual word or even letters are...

Hmmmm, I think mine was purple. But the cool effect of this was that you assumed it was a featureless solid colored album wrapped in that typical clear plastic, but when you tore that off, it...

probably one of the best points that could be made about this. with the exception of the mayflower which is a bit Oliasish in sound.....................AND content.





Olias has a roaring...

could you turn that down? Im tryin to sleep

I agree that this is an overlooked epic. Its unique in several ways

one of the great things about The Remembering is the ending of The Revealing Science of God.

Typically the grand Yes songs...

so if we play six degrees of separation....

if you like the ELP keys sound, try Triumvirat - Spartacus, they were a pretty good knock off

thats a great band name

you can have the name Yes when you pry it from howe's cold dead hands




LOL, Yes are, like there is a second vote.

I did a comparison of the BluRay VS DVD-Audio of Relayer with both running in sync so that I could switch back and forth. AND admittedly I started with a determined bias to hear a difference, but I...

I think a live album would be a great idea. ;)

you may recall how owner used to open with a pretty hip guitar intro, the interesting thing about that intro was that it was actually amputated from the early version of our song. really would have...

"Owner" had a big heavy rotation MTV video back in the day and MTV vids were known for this quick edit look, and so here this song pays homage to that. But JUST this song. The songs in this DVD are...
