    I saw Yes in 1971, and they were amazing! I still remember Chris Squire breaking a bass string (!) in the middle of a song. Amazing thing: the whole band stopped playing instantly, Steve Howe picked up his acoustic guitar and started playing Mood For A Day, a song they almost never played live! No more than 3 or 4 seconds form broken string to---a classic classical piece! Fast forward to present day. My son, just turned 20 and he was watching JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. I heard Roundabout playing! I had to find out what that was. So what next? I end up getting hooked on JoJo, have seen all the videos with the entire JoJo story arc (I know the manga goes further), and I really like it. And my son bought the Yes album (that's right, vinyl) Fragile. He's now a big Yes fan, and digs lots of prog rock from that time period! Win-win!!

      @Samhain410 9 років тому +13

      thevoid99 It's good to know that not everybody on UA-cam is a complete idiot. I mean every band you mentioned deserves to be inducted way more than almost any band that has been inducted in the past decade, especially King Crimson. Don't get me wrong, they usually induct at least one artist worthy of it every year, but they induct so many that aren't really even rock bands and leave out some of the best rock bands in existence. Oh well, at least Chris is up there in the sky playing in that awesome supergroup like you said.

    One of the most talented bands, if not THE most talented Rock band ever; however I'm guessing that's Alan White on drums since he joined in 1972 right before this tour, and they didn't give him enough time to get worked in as he's out of meter at some places in this song. I read that he only got about 3 days to rehearse before they started the tour. It's actually quite amazing that he was able to do the tour & learn the songs that quickly.
