Relayer rules!!!!
👍😎
Relayer and The Prog Corner rules !!!!!
May secretly be their finest work.
Absolutely a Masterpiece Album. Patrick brings a tonality. and play style to Yes, that sets this album apart from everything else. Ricks return for GFTO also also brings a new magical
sound reinvention to the band producing a new Grand Masterpiece for Yes. Both albums are in my Top 10 of all time.
Gates of Delirium is a musical master class and takes you on a journey which is based on Tolstoy's War and Peace.
Gates of Delirium is not a song but an entire life.
Jazz rock..yes some elements
This is the album that will melt your nuts (in the best way possible).
Gates of Delirium is indeed a masterpiece! Can’t wait for you to hear the live version of that as well as Ritual.
👍👍😎
The 1975 QPR one is best for me. I can forgive the bad sound mix. Also the symphonic version. Brilliant. The Yesshows one is a little polished for me ❤
@@mattleppard1964
I will follow your recommendation.
Strap in boys and girls! This is going to be a wild ride‼🚗
👍😎
I’ve been listening this morning to 9021Live The Solos. I hope JP includes this recording in his Yes journey.
Me too. That album is another fine facet of the perfect gem of Yes ❤
At last!!! My personal Top 2, amazing album, it has the most violent and the most heavenly music in the same album, just incredible... Waiting 4 2morrow!!!
I'm mesmerized by the TV. Haven't seen that since switching from VHF to Game Console mode on channel 3 to play Adventure on my Atari 2600.
Funk and Jazz and Rock? YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please and Thank you!!
Their most impressive album for me. Or maybe it’s Close to the Edge. Doh! ❤
👍😎
Vangelis (emphasis on 2nd syllable) wrote "Chariots of Fire". A real eccentric but brilliant writer/player.
He really was a genius. Anyone interested in the history of innovative keyboard music should check out his 1970's work, pre-Blade Runner and Chariots of Fire. Jon Anderson was obviously a fan, and they must have clicked right away, given that Jon was invited to provide the vocal to "So Long Ago, So Clear" in '75.
I love this album..
Can't wait !
Relayer, that's an album I really like, unlike Close to the Edge and Tales from Topographic Oceans, which have always left me cold. The album returns to a much more urgent and vigorous style of music, as in the days of Fragile and The Yes Album, but much more raw and unpredictable, and in which the musicians have never played in such an instinctive and animal way!
‘The Gates of Delirium’ is undoubtedly the most violent piece in the Yes repertoire, including the vocals of Jon Anderson, who has never sung so fiercely, but which does not exclude moments of pure beauty and ends in a soothing way.
‘Sound Chaser’ is the band's craziest track, in which Patrick Moraz's jazz-rock-fusion influence is brought to the fore, while the quieter “To Be Over” is more in keeping with the band's usual style.
On Relayer, Steve Howe's sound and guitar playing are rough and raw, and Alan White has never let loose as much as he does here. As for Chris Squire, he's imperial as usual!
The only slight criticism I'd level at Relayer is that the overall sound is a little too mid-range for my liking, and the mix is a bit too messy compared to what it could have been, but it's true that the instrumentation and arrangements are very busy on the first two tracks. Otherwise, the rest is masterful.
That's one of the reasons why I prefer the live version of "The Gates of Delirium" on _Yesshows._ The bass is really in the forefront which is not surprising, considering the album was mixed by Chris Squire.
@@TheReaperMan275 I like Yesshows better than Yessongs. I also like the live version of "Ritual (Nous Sommes Du Soleil)" with Patrick Moraz. It's a shame there aren't more tracks from the 1976 tour with Moraz, because "Sound Chaser" was also played in Detroit (it was finally included on the triple live box set, The World Is Live, in 2005). I would also have liked more tracks from the 1978 Tormato tour, but you can't have everything!😉
@@a.k.1740 Yeah, it's a shame they only include "Don't kill the Whale" from the _Tormato_ tour. It would have been nice to get a live recording of "Future Times / Rejoice" and "On the Silent Wings of Freedom".
@@TheReaperMan275 I couldn't agree more! Incidentally, "Future Times/Rejoice" and "Circus of Heaven" Live at Oakland Coliseum in 1978 were also included later in the The World Is Live box set, so these tracks (as well as "On the Silent Wings of Freedom" and "Circus of Heaven", which were part of the setlist) could have found their way onto Yesshows if it had been conceived as a triple live album like Yessongs! (perhaps for a hypothetical deluxe edition of Yesshows if that serves the interests of Warner Music Group, of course!😁😉)
@@a.k.1740 That would have been awesome. Of course, people probably would have complained about "Roundabout", "I've Seen All Good People" and "Close to the Edge" not being included even though they were already included on _Yessongs._
Vangelis did some amazing solo work. It is instrumental for the most part. But he did a couple of albums with Jon Anderson in the early 80's under the name Jon and Vangelis. A real stand out is the song The Friends of Mr. Cairo.
a subscriber sent me that Jon & Vangelis record on vinyl a couple years ago actually so i've heard that one.
I believe "Relayer" is the absolute peak of Yes' progressive creativity, and that the water-treading return of Stodgy Rick, who still thought that playing a cathedral organ on a rock album was the height of prog, was the beginning of a sad descent that only got worse with "Tormato." The only subsequent Yes album that does anything for me is the truly unique "Drama" which incorporates the duo The Buggles on vocals and keyboards.
Here’s a fun fact to know and tell.
A naked Patrick Moraz can be seen on the cover of Yes’ album Going For The One! Although Rick Wakeman had replaced him on this record.
Can you provide a link? That's news to me.
Not a proven fact!😎
says so right on the gatefold of the album
Andy Edwards showed it on a recent video
@@uncletom618Not true or is it? It has never been proven. Don't believe everything you read.😎
Rick said he left because of TFTO but he was also building a solo career and that was clearly always going to be his primary focus. I suspect the rest of the band did not want him spending so much time on his own projects.
Hi Justin. About 'Refugee': sadly their only made one Album, because Patrick Moraz then rejoin 'Yes'. Moraz founded 'Refugee 1973: The Band consisted of three members, more precisely from the two earlier ones, the previous 'Nice' muscians Lee Jackson (Bassguitar, Cello, Vocal) and Brian Davidson (drums & percussion). Together with Patrick Moraz (Keyboards & Alpine horn) they made only one Album, the selftitlled Studioalbum 'Refugee', published 1974. The Record is, in my opinion, an absolute Masterwork, simply absolute breathtaking, above all Patrick Moraz breathtaking Keyboardplaying and the phenomenal Drumming of Brian Davidson. By the way: The 'Nice' were the earlier band of Keyboardist Keith Emerson, before he founded Emerson, Lake & Palmer in 1970. When Emerson had heard the Recordings the first time - Patrick Moraz Keyboardplaying - in Brian Davidsons Apartment, he is said to have been absolutely stunned with absolute excitement and said to Brian Davidson: I've never heard a better Keyboardplayer than this (Patrick Moraz) man, at least that's the anecdote. But yes, what Moraz plays here (on this album) is simply unbelievable, pure madness, believe me Justin. Although, on the one hand I was happy about it at the time, that Yes had found such a phantastic successor for Rick Wakeman, so I was saddened to death at the same time because I knew that it also meant the end of this great band named 'Refugee'. So I was excitedly waiting for the new album of Yes with her new one keyboardist, Patrick Moraz - and I was not disappointed: The seventh Studioalbum of Yes is became an absolute Masterwork! Nevertheless: The, unfortunately, the only album by 'Refugee' was also an absolute breathtaking Masterwork. This Album, also published 1974, a few month bevor 'Relayer' is an absolute 'must have' and should not be missing from any good Recordcollection, NOT AT ALL! Playing tips (Refugee' 1974) I recommend the following tracks: 1. Papillon; 2. Grand Canyon (Suite) ca. 17 minutes. - by the way: for myself this piece is the best piece of the whole Album -; 3. Ritt Mickley and, last, not least 4. The 18 minute 'Credo' - also an incredibly good piece, absolute madness!
Personally, perhaps I like the 'Refugee' album perhaps a little more than 'Relayer', and that probably means a lot to me, the old Yes fan. ☺ Kind regards Heinz (Munich). 🌳🌲🌷⚘🌱✨
😎
I actually think you're going to like the epic 'The Gates of Delirium' with the exception of 'Soon' being that you're not a fan of Jon Anderson's vocals.🤩
There is no way anybody couldn't love Soon. Justin actually does like Jon's vocals...
@@kennethmckinney2532 Agreed! Some people just don't like his voice. My girlfriend can't stand his voice but I can listen to him all day long!🤩
@@kennethmckinney2532 I guess we'll see what he says tomorrow.🤩
@@TigerMtnKing guess so. He's just so enamored with Steve Howe (which I completely understand) that he doesn't focus on the rest of the band that much...
I wish people would stop calling Soon a song. It is just a section of Gates although it was released as a single which I believe was a huge mistake for many reasons. It needs to be heard during Gates to have the effect that was meant to be!!!!!😎
OH MY GAWD !
Where i live, weed is legal. Do everything in balance.
Same here. It's been legal in Canada for over 5 years. Or so rumor has it. Not that I would know ... err ... yeah. 🌿
Canada, sweet!!
See you tomorrow 😊😊😊
Don’t know for sure now, but back in the ‘80s my band couldn’t play within the city limits of Portland Oregon because we hadn’t joined the musicians union. We could play in every other part of Oregon but not there. If they found out a club or even a wedding or private event used non-union band members they would be fined.
thats fully ridiculous. During my last year at Berklee i asked many of the teachers i had if I should join the union they ALL said no (with the caveat of unless you get a union gig). I've played in all major US cities, never been in the union. Public and private events. Major events even.
@@JustinPanariello yeah it is ridiculous. I don’t think it’s still like that but we couldn’t get a gig, all the bars asked us if we were in the union and refused to book us. So we just played everywhere else.
Judging by your positive reaction to TFTO I think you are going to love The Gates of Delirium. For me it’s an absolute masterpiece. Don’t worry, Moraz doesn’t bring the funk!!
I’ve been a fan since the late 60s and love everything that they have done, but my favorite is still a little known song called Circus of Heaven from Tormato…
Refugee was Moraz plus the rhythm section of Keith Emerson's old band The Nice. They released one studio album that was very much in the Nice/ELP mold. It's not bad --- very much mainstream progressive rock for 1974 -- although bassist Lee Jackson is an 'acquired taste' as a singer. And yeah, keyboards had to be tuned in those days. The pitches of analog synths and other pre-digital keyboard instruments were usually controlled by voltage, so the load on wherever they were being used would sometimes cause them to 'drift' in terms of their pitch. If you ever check out the QPR video from '75 you'll hear a perfect example of this when Moraz goes to use one of his ARPs that's been sitting idle for a while. 😳 Oh, and psst... Be careful with the anti-weed sermons, Justin, or you'll lose a lot of the older Yes fans. 😉
My High School friend group that were Yes lovers include at least 2 who rate Relayer as their best album. I’m more in the Yes Album/Close to the Edge camp. But this is a fantastic album.
I’ve seen Anderson sing “Soon” live and Daltry sing “See me, feel me” both at the height of their powers and they are tied for me as the most beautiful song sections I’ve ever heard. Each hauntingly beautiful.
I love Relayer. One of my favorites. While it does have another 20 minute piece, I like Gates of Delirium much more than anything on Tales. While the material on Tales is a bit more experimental, my problem with the album is having all 4 songs on a double album. Just too much material to digest all at once. I would have preferred if they took the 4 Tales songs and released them as a single side with 2 or 3 shorter pieces on the other side on 4 individual albums. Like they did with Relayer or Edge. Or later on with That, That Is from Keys to Ascension.
From the Gibson 345/175 to a Les Paul, now a Telecaster....You'd think the progression would be the other way around? Steve played a Fender lap steel pedal, and it was rigged with wheels such that it would slide around the stage during performances. For Relayer he moved to a different steel, pretty sure?
It’s really interesting reading Steve’s book “The Steve Howe Guitar Collection” because he describes what guitar he used on what album. He tended to use a different guitar for each album. For example, ‘The Yes Album’ is the 175, ‘Fragile’ is mostly the Switchmaster, ‘Close to the Edge’ is the 335, ‘Tales’ is the Les Paul Jr., and ‘Relayer’ is the Telecaster. On ‘Relayer’, he used a Fender Duel 6 twin-necked steel guitar. It came with factory adjustable legs, so you could play it sitting or standing. For his earlier slide work (‘And You And I’), he used a Gibson BR9 steel guitar. Check out that book if you can find it.
Gates is like CTTE, you'll be better off to listen to it 3-4 times (or more) to really get it; like your contentious use of the word, the song is 'taxing'. Sound Chaser is a wild ride and To Be Over is a pleasant way to end the album.
Relayer is bitter sweet for me. Creatively speaking, it's a marvel of human kind's ability to create something so intricately beautiful -- and because of this it's a crime that it did get the best engineering/production that it deserved. As brilliant as Eddie Offord was, he really dropped the ball on this one. Though, looking at his history of fumbles: inserting the wrong keyboard take in CTTE and nearly loosing the tapes, all together, for TFTOs, one could see this coming. Now I'm plagued with constantly being distracted by the lack of clarity and instrument definition. It's difficult to hear White and Squire thru many passages. Curses!! I can only wish with today's technology someone will step-up and re-engineer these recordings. I know that it can be done cause I've heard some music restoration / reconstruction examples, on much worse recordings, that are jaw dropping. Anyway, sorry for the rant, I hope you like it.
most of my talking points regarding the album...
@@JustinPanariello ...again, curses!! You should listen to a demo recording of Gates that came as a bonus track on one of the reissues of Relayer. Even tho the performance is unpolished, I almost prefer listening to that because the record is crystal clear with tons of dynamic range - White's percussion it right up front. -sigh-
Steven Wilson remixed this album a few years ago and it is widely available. He cleaned up the mix and it sounds much more like a live band with every instrument discernable. You may enjoy it. For me, the original Eddie Offord mix has a certain intangible sci-fi/fantasy vibe that suits the material and I got no complaints with it.
@@CanAlternateLostTape I've tried that and all other remasters/remixes, there are only slight different, but overall they don't fix the problem. Yes, I appreciate the atmosphere that Relayer has. I think that could be retained in the audio restoration process.
I hate telecasters lol😂 but at least he made it sound ok to me😂 I used to have one and gave it away…
I know the term has been frequently misused with this band, but Moraz can really funk it up! Check solo at end of Soundchaser.
Shire as in Buckinghamshire (and similar names) is pronounced shear.
Just was wondering if you're thinking of listening to the band members solo material?
@@krisdoggett483 hasnt crossed my mind at the moment
@@JustinPanariello Fair enough. I will suggest that you give Squire's album 'Fish Out of Water' a listen. It's a very good effort and features Bill Bruford on the drums. I think you'd enjoy it but who knows?
@@krisdoggett483 oohh yes someone sent me that album on vinyl a couple years ago so i have actually heard it once.
Awesome album and Moraz is brilliant on it but I was very happy they dumped him after one tour because he was not very good in concert with a lot of their othrr material. Really funked up (if you know what I mean) the Wakeman solos, like on Close to the Edge and Roundabout, etc.
Vangelis is pronounced with a hard G JSYK
Not a fan of this album either.
