Two fine gentlemen who are also amazing musicians, what a great meeting of Genesis and Yes in one room. Nothing but love and respect for Steve Hackett and Chris Squire. RIP Chris, we all miss you so much
How beautiful it is to see these two wonderful chaps together... Thank you for sharing this material... Years ago, we fans of "prog rock" from distant parts of the world (like South America) did not have any clue about what "was going on" in Europe or the US. Nowadays there are intimate videos popping up here and there... It is like starting to know your old heroes when they are already gone (RIP Chris) or still shining with softer, yet magnificient colours, like Steve, whom I saw live a few years ago in Argentina... Simply glorious...
What a cool interview. I got to speak to Chris at a meet and greet in 2013. He signed a Yes ticket stub from about 1978 when I saw them at Rich Stadium near Buffalo, New York and he remembered the other groups that were there. Superfest tickets $8.50 for Yes, Bob Seger, J Geils and Donovan back them.
Two legends, one sadly no longer with us, The Fish, what a bass player, these two guys were my foundation musicians in their respective bands Yes, and Genesis, fantastic back catalogue of music from both, still love them today.
Early to mid 70s, seems like an incredible time to be around, especially for the hey days of these brilliant bands. I'm 35 and born in 1989 so no such luck for me.
I had forgotten the term Art Rock, I remember calling it "Classical Rock" I didn't really know what to call it back then (early 70's) ...not classic rock as that term is used today. I do remember it being called Art Rock now that they mention it. Whatever you want to call it, it's truly my favorite style of music. First (for me) was King Crimson, then I heard Yes and they became my favorite band until around 72-73 when I heard Genesis they are still my favorite band to this day...well at least the Gabriel era band. How nice to see 2 of my favorite musicals together. Chris Squire had the best bass sound ever...RIP
Strange that Steve saw Yes live at The Marquee at the end of the 60s and so did Phil Collins. They probably didn't know each other then but were in the same room! And Chris never saw Genesis live but in the early days, Yes were playing arenas but Genesis were playing small clubs.
It's perfect that these two made music together with their Squackett album...Both good guys and great musicians...Squire was the heart of Yes and to me he was the best songwriter.
What a great interview/chat this is. LMAO..! These British musicians gigged with each other and were just good fans of each others music. Check out Brand X when Phil Collins played some of his best drums licks. The Cruise To The Edge looked fantastic..! There are many videos of that cruise here on UA-cam. RIP Chris..!
In mexico we use to call Cris "la señora", wich means madam. All with great respec and admiration to one of my favorites musician all over the universe.
You are so right, Steve's guitar on these albums was superb, the band lost its magic when he left, Then there were three was the last of the last decent Genesis albums, they just became a band amongst others, never got the theme of the band they just went very radio friendly and American pop rock.
@@mvancha Sorry but Foxtrot, Genesis live, Selling England and The Lamb are superior in every way to those two.....good albums but not even close to the Gabriel era
Two old men with the lifetime behind them sharing stories about good old days like on a Sunday afternoon on a park bench. A cup of Prosecco and a mug of tea. And you could listen to them talking all day long. Such a pity Chris left us soon after that. Hopefully Steve has a lot more of life and music coming. His most recent album leaves no doubt: he is aging brilliantly.
Chris enjoyed the perks that come with stardom;expensive booze,rich foods,cocaine,etc.Oh,and completely ignoring (with the rest of the band)Jon Anderson,leaving him utterly depressed and hospitalized.He could have died and not a word from the aristocrats in the band.Chris surprised me 2 not even mention Jon,as he basked in the glory of his Jon Anderson replicas;Benoit and the other clown.As Jon Anderson himself said,"U can spend a half of your life with the people U think are friends.Contract a serious health problem, and the fact is;if they come around (friends) and the ones that don't...U know where U stand."TRUE!!!✨🎼🙏🏼🎼✨🌚🌝
They'd be bored stiff by the company if you ask me. Too many people idolise others to levels that they cannot reach. When you are young, it's hard not too. I met Chris once and commented about his fantastic hair growth. A bit off the cuff but studying him was fascinating. He was a very cool cat sitting in a Porshe with two women at the time.
Alan White is great. Listen to him on "Relayer". I prefer his drumming to Bruford's. Very powerful and more fitting for Squire's energetic bass playing.
His drumming on Sound Chaser and Gates of Delirium just blows my mind every time. Alan is a great drummer. Relayer, Tales From Topographic Oceans and Drama are great albums if you want to hear Alan. I love Alan as a drummer, but I still prefer Bill Bruford’s drumming. He’s always been one of my favorite drummers ever. Squire is my favorite bass player of all time. His energetic and melodic bass lines always captivated me and always can’t stop listening.
2 best musiciens ever , guitarist and bassist , and best drummer ? Palmer ...Firth Of Fifth guitar solo and Voyage Of The Acolyte ..and just try to play The Ciaconne (Tribute Album ) lololol....good luck ! ololololo bonne chance
Sorry to hear about Chris may he RIP. However Steve, sod all this talk about music what I want to know is how an old bugger like you, looks so damned well for you age? You have more hair then when I was 18. Please tell me its a wig or a hairpiece, some miracle drug or procedure, if only to make me feel better. BTW, IMO, when it comes to Genesis you were it. OK all of the others made important contributions, but all of the most sublime bits as far as the music was concerned, were you. This became apparent when I heard all of your solo projects, and compared them to those of the others. It is clear by what the others produced as solo artists who was contributing what to the whole. You seem to have more a respect, nad genuine liking for what Genesis produced while you were in the band, then all of the others, even Peter Gabriel. Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford seem to be almost ashamed of it, and would have prefered to have produced pop songs. Phil Collins just seemed to want to keep himself as busy as possible to keep his mind of off other problems, like his balding head, lack of any real personal affinity with the rest of the group, and marital strife. I am sure his mother likes him, but working with people like Tony Banks, would have tried the patience of a saint. Key players are best when you hardly know that they are there at all, and no one could not know that Tony Banks was well and truly there, a little too much and a little too often. Sometimes less is more. At the end of the day it will be the stuff Genesis produced when you were in it that will be remembered and copied in generations to come. That which came after will not, but will be passed by as just reasonably good pop songs. The good stuff, the stuff that transcends time, and generations is measured by the effect it has on the soul of the listener. The images it engenders, and the emotions it creates. Having said all of that, how do you look so annoyingly young?

Usher Hall, 1974, Relayer and then the Lamb the next day? Surprised the building didn’t crumble under the sheer musical weight of these two bands!
👍 Two GREAT musicians, from two GREAT bands!! 👍
Steve a unique fantastic guitarist. Chris was a legend. RIP Chris
Chris Squire . . . monster Rickenbacker bassist. Tone to die for.

"I think we may well get together again at some point, do another album."
RIP Squire...
None of us knows when the end comes...
RIP dear Chris, Steve Hackett still out their brillant guitarist!
Great guys, great bands, great times, so thankful to have been able to see both Genesis and Yes in concert. R.I.P. Chris.
I like watching them both together talking like old pals. They really did have a connection when making this album as outlined in Prog Rock magazine.
Two guys who participated, in two legendary bands, extraordinary. Genesis and Yes who introduce me to other progressive rock bands ELP, King Crimson.
Great to see these two together... what a treat, thank you!
Everybody felt at home with Chris around.
Another gem. Two extremely classy and talented musicians.

Awesome to see these genius minds in conversation !
I've had the great pleasure to meet both of these greats. I just met Steve in May of 2016 in Florida and met Chris in Philadelphia in the early 2000's
Two legends!
yes in 73 with bruford. wow. genesis in 73, also amazing. gentle giant 73, but i digress. for a few years it was sublime...
YES, GIANT!! Sae them in Buffalo 2 years in a row, about 75 - 76. New Century Theatre - - old run down opera house.
Early to mid 70s, seems like an incredible time to be around, especially for the hey days of these brilliant bands. I'm 35 and born in 1989 so no such luck for me.
Two really Great musicians. Don't think think they ever received enough credit for historical Rock foundations ❤❤❤❤❤
What a treat to see this.

Chris gave my buddy a thumbs up as he lit our doober at the in the round tour. He was rocking his trademark duster jacket.
Love how their hair hasn't changed since 1972.
Like that Brian fella from The Sweet...
And that Brian fella from Queen ;)
Tea for Steve, wine for Squire!
2 of my favorites!
R.I.Paradise., Chris...
It's perfect that these two made music together with their Squackett album...Both good guys and great musicians...Squire was the heart of Yes and to me he was the best songwriter.
2 fantastic original musicians.
Two of my fav prog rock visionaries.
Steve, keep rocking, Chris, RIP.
2 of my all time favorite musicians together!!

Chris looks like Steve's mum
In mexico we use to call Cris "la señora", wich means madam. All with great respec and admiration to one of my favorites musician all over the universe.
Lmao. What a character. Is that a McQueen scarf with the skulls?
Oh my God!....so wrong. But kind of true
Holy shit, I just laughed out loud. Literally...like reading a Far Side comic.
I audibly wheezed at this un XD
Miss you Chris.. Looking forward to meeting Steve soon
Nice that Chris remembers Phil Collins' being a big fan of Bill Bruford and hanging out at the Marquee with him in the late 60s.
Bloody hell did not realise it was Chris dam. RIP Chris
Well, Hackett has worked with Howe (GTR), and Squire (Squackett) ... Should he work with Anderson (Handerson); or Wakeman (Wackett) ???
Or with Peter Gabriel (Gackett)
Wackett is amazing😂
...or Phil Collins (Cockett)!
Or with Robert Fripp (Frackett)?
Or Jakko Jakszyk (Jackett)
My favorite era of Genesis music was Trick of the Tail & Wind and Wuthering - Steve Hackett gave his old band the best sound!
Steve Cooke The best era of Genesis, really.
You cannot beat these two albums, as any Genesis fan knows.
Mr. Mike It's funny you say that... Cuz I keep seeing Genesis fans shooting down W&W, of those two. 🤔
You are so right, Steve's guitar on these albums was superb, the band lost its magic when he left, Then there were three was the last of the last decent Genesis albums, they just became a band amongst others, never got the theme of the band they just went very radio friendly and American pop rock.

First time seeing these two together
This is a real progressive rock summit!!
I love these guys, Steve remembers everything while Chris has forgoten all !!!!

@@paulbrookes413 they all have their own interests at heart.....look at Steve howe now...
I love Steve's Sgt. Pepper cup.
Try telling kids today-“ That guy on the right, the one who looks like a homeless man, he’s one of the greatest musicians of the last 50 years.”
Two guitar giants
Imagine spending an afternoon in the pub with them
Wonderful!!!👍👍👍🎶🎶🎶

Hehe, two geniuses trying to reminisce. :) I wish I could have been there!
2 merveilles ! merci
Fucking helll, Steve Hackett AND Chris Squire??!!
I saw genesis live with Gabriel 5 times.
Oh yeah Me and Fish, we had that thing in common I remember, we never saw Genesis live...
although yes we have seen the videos.
Look at the size of Chris' hands next to Steve's.
Squackett! Awesome..
The shoulders of giants.
two greats
Dos señores musicos
Looks like your mate's Mum and Aunt gossiping at the kitchen table
90125 cost $990,000 to produce, according to Chris on an interview from 'Yestival 94'. Huge bucks back in those days! No wonder the album was a hit.
"Both Trevors, a lot of time and the Bank of England..."
For a Yes album to me it was pretty much a piece of shit
90125 was the first of many bad albums to come. 🤷🏽♂️
@@lifespanofafry1534 wrong!
@@AdamLB good one 👍🏽
O sea Hackett confiesa haber visto en escena a Yes y por su parte Squire admite no heber visto nunca a Genesis en vivo, qué opinan?
2 great musicians - dig Steve's Sgt Pepper mug!
They say Squire was hard to get along with in Yes...He seems like a happy old fuck.
If anyone was hard to get along with I would put good money on it being the petulant Howe, though they probably all had their moments.
@@jeffsimon9594 Brings to mind...Howe yelling at his guitar tech or something and Squire joking, You too could be a vegetarian.
Alan White is great. Listen to him on "Relayer". I prefer his drumming to Bruford's. Very powerful and more fitting for Squire's energetic bass playing.
Listen to Alan on DRAMA!!!
I love Alan getting respect.
Relayer is a masterpiece
His drumming on Sound Chaser and Gates of Delirium just blows my mind every time. Alan is a great drummer. Relayer, Tales From Topographic Oceans and Drama are great albums if you want to hear Alan. I love Alan as a drummer, but I still prefer Bill Bruford’s drumming. He’s always been one of my favorite drummers ever. Squire is my favorite bass player of all time. His energetic and melodic bass lines always captivated me and always can’t stop listening.
Love Chris! Swallow that mint😉
it was a late beginning of a supergroup of the millenium !
Funny to see Hackett soooo tentative in front of Squire. Soooo shy.
86
The size of Squires hands....
Wow, Chris's hands are massive compared to Steve's. Chris, you are sorely missed.
in mr.hackett's glass,is that we are only in it for money from frank zappa or sgt.pepper from beatles
pepper...
Oddly predictive, subliminally--the death scarf around Chris' neck.
Harsh, mate.
I think it was lovely of Steve to invite his Aunt round
2 best musiciens ever , guitarist and bassist , and best drummer ? Palmer ...Firth Of Fifth guitar solo and Voyage Of The Acolyte ..and just try to play The Ciaconne (Tribute Album ) lololol....good luck ! ololololo bonne chance

CHRIS IS BLOUDED, DRINKING
Just think stormzy ed Sheeranand robbie Williams are these guys in 20 years haaa
Was Chris a cigarette smoker?
THE OLD ROCK BRITS ARE FUNNY, THEY BEGIN TO LOOK LIKE AUNTIE MARY
TheJukeboxhero15 that scarf round Chris Squires neck ain’t helping with that look lol
Chris kinda looks very feminine?
Why is he dressed as a woman?
