Rest in Peace, Alan White.
What I love about Steve’s playing on this album is that he switched is Gibson ES175 for a Telecaster. Steve on a telecaster is much more aggressive than Steve on a Gibson. It sounds great.
The Tele was great on this album, but I think the last track he played the 175D on in that era was Heart of the Sunrise, which was the only track he used it on on Fragile.
The Yes Album was all about the 175D, except Perpetual Change on a Guyatone LG-50.
He did stick with Gibsons until Relayer, though.
An ES-5 Switchmaster on Fragile, ES-345 Stereo on all of CttE, and also Revealing Science of God, and a Les Paul Jr on Ritual and the electric parts on The Remembering and The Ancient if I recall correctly.
Sorry to bring the bad news. Alan passed away today. My favorite drummer of all time. I'm sad. Great reaction.
There is only one YES.. There are many great prog bands.. They all pale to YES. Alien gods of music. Immaculate untouchable.
Relayer is my favourite Yes album. Music theory at it's most pristine and extreme.
I wholeheartedly agree! Relayer is my fave. So cool to see the enjoyment shared for this astounding music by new and old fans alike!
No click-tracks, no sequencers.. all performance baby :)
Alan was the perfect replacement for Bill. He created alot of wonderful music with them. Both great drummers. Period!
YES at their most experimental and adventurous. Fans at the time were expecting a follow up to CTTE and Tales - this was harder to digest and assimilate. Long time Yes listeners often list this album as their favorite. It's definitely up there for me. Still sounds fresh today.
I agree, Close to the edge is a superb album, specially the first track. But Relayer for me is the best album. Patrick Moraz gives a keyboard flavour that makes the album being quite unique
This is my go to song when I need a yes fix. It is some of Howe’s best guitar work in My opinion.
Patrick moraz was perfect for this album.
I love Close to the Edge, but I’ve heard it so much. Relayer is my favorite Yes album. Tales is my 3rd favorite after Going for the One. It’s amazing how fresh and alive this music sounds even in 2022 and this was recorded in 1974.
It’s bananas
Yours are probably the most genuine reactions to a Yes song - I love the way your words tail off as you realise you can't adequately describe what you're hearing! Yes, the guys were showing off on this track - but no matter where their individual journeys lead them, they always bring it back to a melodic theme, together...and one which they were capable of playing live. These guys are so tight? Oh, yes - they were! This is an awesome track and a great showcase for their individual and collective talents!
When I first heard Sound Chaser, I was in my first year away at College. New Life, New YES with Patrick Moraz on Keysand I was sOOOOOOOOOO ready for a another very groundbreaking YES LP. Meaning? Chasing Sound is the act of HEARING music and understanding & celebrating its BEAUTY and how Sound Vibration can be a HEALING Force that INSPIRES, MOTIVATES and SENDS LOVES where ever it goes
King Crimson... One More Red Nightmare from the RED album
They recorded this entire album in Chris Squire's garage.
It has been strongly suggested with this song, I set my sticks down and sell my drums. Incredible musicianship. To play in Yes, bring your "A" game every second of every song.
I just love their creativity! So many different styles going on. I distinctively hear Squire's bass and those drums don't disappoint! A fine masterpiece.
Excellent Choice but I would strongly request you to react to "Gates of Delirium" by Yes!!!!! Sound Chaser is like progressive Jazz!!!!
I've loved Yes since I first heard them in '73 but my absolute favorite will always be The Gates of Delirium from the Relayer album. Close to the Edge comes a close 2nd followed by Wonderous Stories.
I've loved this song since the first time I ever heard it, and it just gets better and better. I mean, who comes up with this stuff? YES does.
As for the meaning of the song, it's all just about music and really all the sounds of our lives and trying to keep up with the rhythm of everything going on within and around us. That sounds more trippy than I mean it to be, but it's really pretty simple.
Alan was the greatest. It would take a normal person a century to learn that. He was only with them one year by then
The intro was written by Alan and Patrick Moraz during his audition.
"to be over" is the last track on relayer. True masterpiece
Nice reaction Josh, the album Relayer was very adventurous and was a bit of a new direction for the band with new Keyboardist Patrick Moraz who was a classically trained jazz fusion player. At the time the band were very inspired by what the jazz fusion band Mahavishnu orchestra and others were doing and you can hear that intensity in the music, certainly on this track. IMO the album is a masterpiece, you must listen to "The Gates of Delerium" which is one of their all time greatest epics. Also "To be over" which is a little more subdued but utterly beautiful. Happy reacting
They are going on tour soon and doing the whole album. Listen to the rest of this album, your brain will blow out your skull, in a good way.
Josh I am a 62 yo guy who has seen YES 68 times since 1974 Tales tour. I bought RELAYER the day it came out DEC11th74 and still remember my first reaction. It was great to watch your reaction. It is true it leaves you speechless at times and for a younger guy you have it right. BOTH White and Bruford are superb. Completely different approaches to the drums and YES music. Sadly Bruford has retired at this point and even though Alan is still playing and recording today his age keeps him from unleashing that kind of fury. It's not a dig on AW it's okay he paid his dues, he's owned the thrown for decades and has the body of work to show an incredible legacy for one of the all time greats. I LOVE a lot of musicians but when it comes to bands The Beatles, Yes, Steely Dan and the Mahavishunu Orchestra set me on my course at a young age back in the late 60's early 70's right up to today. Yes rules!
Alan White steals the show every time I hear this. He is quite phenomenal on this track.
Both Bill Bruford and Alan White, as different as they were in style, were both perfect for the albums they were a part of. They both came and went a couple times over the past FIFTY YEARS.
I find it interesting that Alan not only played for YES, he also played played on 'Imagine' by John Lennon.
You should also try 'Pictures of Home' by Deep Purple. Great drum intro by Ian Paice.
Thank you thank you thank you. This song is nuts . Those strings are Patric Miraz On keys. Squire goes off yes they all do. Those tempo changes WTF . Relayer is my fav album. King crimson first song on the Red album it's called red. So glad you did sound chaser. 😁
11:57 you said it brother...Tx for the reaction. YES forever..Cha Cha Cha Cha Cha ✌️😎 🎹🎺🎻🎵
You can try Emerson, Lake and Palmer "Toccata" or "Karn Evil". You can listen to King Crimson on your own, but if you make a video, it will be blocked (they always block them).
There have been some reactions that haven't been blocked I think because DMG doesn't own the rights to some live performances on broadcast TV.
And to think, none of it was written down at the time. All memorized head arrangements.
Bro, I'm a guitar player and Bruford is my favorite musician.. Go figure.. Anyhow, the late, great Alan White stepped into a situation and definitely was good enough. But over time he evolved into the monstrous playing Yes is known for. They are both special beings. And Yes has always been the deeper waters.. No one else like them, or deeper than them..
Thanks Josh. This is a great Yes song. Yes came up with their style of creative music so many times in the 70s. Always perfect and great. Ture masters of music. For this album they had Patrick Moraz on keys so they got into fusion with Jazz and heaps of other genres. After the highly theme based song on side 1 (which is also amazing) Sound Chaser was a musical experiment. It really does showcase the band and has so many sounds, layers and transitions. I am sure if you listen to it a few more times you will pick up on different sounds and aspects not noticed the first time. As to other Yes songs. You can pick anything from 1971 to 1977, so many amazing works in there. Also the live album set Yessongs is amazing and is one of the best live sets ever.
I like the tempo change in the middle of the fill 8:37.
Another good percussion song is The Ancient (Giants Under The Sun). Lots of interesting stuff.
Starless from King Krimson. You'll dig it. Also check out Earthworks. Bill's band with Alan Holdsworth and Jeff Berlin.
I love the change in time or tempo or whatever ya call it at 8:37 my favorite part of the whole song.
Have you done the first track from this album? Gates of Delirium? It’s up there with Close to the Edge ❤
The band is fantastic as usual, but can we give it up for Chris Squire? Damn. Going ham on that bass.
To me, Chris is the glue that kept them together.
👽 Good call!
Perfect choice Josh!!! Please try with more YES music and continue your challenge with a new prog groups likeTransatlantic, The Flower Kings, Pendragon, IQ, Porcupine Tree, R.P.W.L. etc,. Cordial greetings from Argentina.
Alan White was in the John lennon band Plastic ono band
Another amazing aspect are the cover bands who actually do justice to songs like Sound Chaser, Close To The Edge, etc. Not easy AT ALL. Unreal.
YES is one of those bands that you can only appreciate. There’s no getting together with your buddies and playing their stuff. They’re all complete masters at their craft. There’s no band even close to the caliber of talent that YES displays
King Crimson - I would suggest the Red album for earlier work and Discipline for later work. Also, this Yes song was amazing.
Alan White always had chops but, for the most part he underplayed them, giving support of the song higher priority. Not that Bruford didn't do the same but, Bruford inserted his signature approach in a different way that, in my opinion, is more up front and somewhat an independent compositional voice. However, I always felt that Alan most brightly shined on this song. that;;;s one reason I'm glad they did this song.
Yes son. it blew me away too in 1974/5, I think it was . The musicianship is incredible across all instruments but Steve Howe surpasses himself. He makes a Telecaster guitar sound like he's shredding corrugated iron roofing sheets. PS I forgive you for pausing one of the greatest guitar solos ever heard in popular recorded music.
King Crimson is very hard to react to because they pull almost every one from YT, they really try to control their music. That said, there was a live performance on the US TV series Fridays which has been reacted to (I guess KC doesn't own the rights but ABC television does) with Bruford absolutely killing it along with the rest of the band on Dinosaur. The two bands are stylistically very dissimilar but they have a similar musical mission, the Discipline era band as good as any Yes line up.
1975, my jazz snob college roommate hated Yes so I put this on and said, “I think they’ve been listening to Return To Forever or maybe Mahavishnu?” and he almost jumped out the window. So it goes.
Next time you listen to sound chaser,listen for Steve Howe plays the lyrics in his solo.
So glad you get that they are different styles, not better or worse.
And yes- they are from another planet. Keep it under your aluminum foil hat.
Saw them twice; once without Jon Anderson and then with most or all of the original line up. Amazing I think. I thought so at the time but I was really, really high at the time so memory banks are blurry. It was 80s so long time ago.
You should check out The Revealing Science of God from Tales From Topographic Oceans and the live version of Ritual from Yesshows. This was the first album Alan White played on. Ritual is insanely bass/drum oriented.
Tales from Topographic Oceans was before this with Alan.
@@Meanstoend Yes, I am aware of this. When I said "this was the first album Alan played on" I was referring to Tales From Topographic Oceans and not Relayer.
By YES you MUST d 1.Siberian Khatru 2. Heart Of The Sunrise 3. To Be Over 4. South Side OF The Sky
5. Future Times/Rejoice 6. And You And I
I am just going to say this…..You have a fan for Life because you get YES. YES like other progressive groups or even Rock groups….like The Who….The Beatles…..Led Zeppelin……Steely Dan…….Supertramp…..The Moody Blues…..Deep Purple…….Rush…Pink Floyd……is a High Tier Music group……..who require a High IQ in music to appreciate and really get their music contributions. These guys are the gods of Rock n' Roll…….they specialize in perfecting their sounds and creating music that is not average type of music. People that are really into Jazz or Classical or Opera music have high IQ's in music because it requires one to really listen how an instrument is being played to create certain sounds or how a vocalist is singing a melody to cause an emotional effect. Like Jazz or Classical music one must hear the tones of the way music is being delivered to the ear to understand the meaning or see the story that is being expressed. This is the description of a Hight IQ in music which can understand and appreciate Top Tier Music because it is "Art." You appreciate and get the Art of YES!!!! And you have a fan for Life!!!!
Other worldly
King Crimson Thela Hun Ginjeet. Discipline album.
I knew Close To The Edge pretty good and was shocked Alan White could hold up with Bill Bruford.
Do side one "The Gates of Delirium". One of their best.
Saw them play this 1976 Detroit concert .. ( You're a Puppy, but a cool Dude)
You’re going to shit yer pants when you get to Gates of Delirium
suggest you try Starless from king Crimsons album 'Red' if you like Bill Bruford in fact you'll love the entire album.ps add 'waiting man' live hear on youtube from KC.
"Awaken" By Yes!!!
Yes was never the same for me when Bill Bruford left, Find a recording of Alan White playing Heart of the Sunrise. There is no comparison! Bruford blows away Whites drumming hands down.
Your next Yes song should be Siberian Khatru, off the Close To The Edge album, and it features Bill Bruford.
Bill Bruford and Patrick Moraz never player together in Yes. But they made 2 albums together. Check out Music for Piano and drums. Children's Concerto is a good place to start. How to PLAY drums!
KC song, In discipline.❤
Patrick Moraz bring Yes to the future age sound
Rick Wakeman brings Yes to medivial age sound
Love both
Definitely check out the entire Relayer album - Gates of Delirium has some freakish drumming/percussion in it, and To Be Over is a subtle melodic masterpiece. As far as some King Crimson/Bruford material to react to - it will be difficult to do a reaction video since Crimson is stingy with being able to use ANY portion of ANY of their songs in reaction videos. It kind of sucks. That being said, Check out 'The Talking Drum' and 'Larks Tongues in Aspic Part II' from the album Larks Tongues in Aspic, 'Red' and 'One More Red Nightmare' from the album Red, 'Frame by Frame,' 'Indiscipline' and 'Discipline' from the album Discipline, and 'Waiting Man' from Beat czcams.com/video/hWkyBVjuL80/video.html. There are plenty of others, but those are good ones from my view point. Lots more suggestions when you're ready!
For/with YES fans nothing needs be said, we all get it;)
As for the haters, nothing can be said, they can never get it.
As for Howes guitar work, 1977, 78, 79, 80, 81 votes best guitarist by the readers of Guitar Player magazine. For 1982 GP mag opened their HOF and enshrined Howe disqualifying him from future consideration.
King Crimson- Frame by Frame.
This is a really great song. The whole album is great.
For a first King Crimson song to listen to, why not the first song on their debut album? 21st Century Schizoid Man from In the Court of the Crimson King. Unfortunately, any reaction to the studio recording will be blocked. I'm sure there are some live versions that won't get blocked. This was before Bill's time in the band, but Michael Giles is another excellent drummer. Closer to Bruford's jazz influenced style than White's style.
For a KC track with Bruford, try Insiscipline. There are several live versions on CZcams. My two favorite are:
m.czcams.com/video/aNy80nqtqlU/video.html
m.czcams.com/video/4SDt1TLUbzY/video.html
It's a crazy song! Crazy good!
Think Alan and Bill Brufford are/we t e good, LISTEN TO "TANK" on Emerson, Lake, and Palmer's Triology album! No vocals.. keyboards and drums that Neil Pert was proud of... Carl Palmer IS the world's best living drummer 2nd only by Bill Brufford. Check it out, you or you audience will not be disappointed 😉
I'm a huge YES fan, and I'm really digging your channel! Maybe check out "Gates of Delirium" from this same album. Also, as a drummer, maybe you'd like the band Brand X. I'd start with this one: czcams.com/video/AJuXt10C3MM/video.html Peace!
This track could be a good beginning for King Crimson: czcams.com/video/OfR6_V91fG8/video.html
