The bass player, one of the best in Rock and roll history. Loving the Rickenbacker bass in stereo, the neck pickup through a guitar amp, and the bridge pickup through a bass amp. Toothy. Deep. Fucking great.
We will NEVER hear music of this extraordinary caliber again. Yes were a band of unparalleled innovative and technical ability underscored by some of the most beautiful and lyrical songwriting in the rock canon. We shall not see their like again, I fear.
So, there is The Ox (shook his hand), there is Jack Casady, Flea, Phil Lesh... and hundreds of other amazing BASS GUITAR players... but Chris Squire had a vision of positive and high velocity, plus sensitive to emotions, music. Amazing composer and I heard a really funny guy. Miss the chance to meet him, but was there enough times so that is inconsequential. let the bands play on....
I wore this album out back then. Put on the head sets, played the vinyl on my Marantz hifi, whenever had a bad day from abusive father. It was my own personal escape from reality.
I'm 76 this week and remember first seeing them in the early 70s at the Liverpool Empire first with Rick Wakeman and again with Patrick Moraz, still love them today R.I.P.Chris
I saw Yes back on '77 in Indianapolis. They were phenomenal. The laser light show was beyond awesome! Jon's vocals soared. Wakeman was incredible as always. No band on Earth was more talented.
Thath!! Chris squire,bass just UNIKE !!! Ever YES band I love you guys thanks for your marvelous music,Anderson,,Howe you are masters of my times God bless you all amen.
In the years before youtube I always thought music of this complexity was only possible in a studio with a lot of multitracking, but here it is.....note-for-note perfect and with a groove that surpasses the studio version by a large margin....incredible!
This is nuts... this is real musicianship... it's live, yet nothing out of place... two keyboards, two drums, two guitars, yet each within it's own sonic space... brilliant...
People put Yes at the top of the mountain as musicians, & they’re right. But what really sets Yes above the other virtuoso bands to me is the writing, the incredible lyrics & the phenomenal melodies. And that voice. Never going to happen again. Jon is once in a century.
I concur. I've been amazed by the voice of Jon Anderson since the 70s. My favorite band will always be Emerson Lake and Palmer. Something that I've been enjoying for over 40 years is ASIA Live In Budokan. When Greg Lake filled in for John Wetton, and Carl Palmer drumming, it was 2/3 of ELP. That's when Kozy is Powell got to tour with Emerson and Lake on the Touch And Go tour. Those two bands over the years have had some of Rocks' finest musicians and singers. My first indoor concert was ELP on the Brain Salad Surgery Tour, at Madison Square Garden. They toured with about 100 members of the London Philharmonic Orchestra. That got me hooked on going to concerts.
@Justin Farrell Technically Rabin is a good player, but stylistically he does nothing for me. For one thing his style is stuck in the 80s and it's very trendy. Unlike EVH, Rabin's trend is over.
The last Chord it's a E major....and the entire song is the E manor chord...BRILLIANT!..Iḿ 67 and i've been my whole life playing and learning this song on guitar and keyboards..I'm not a profesional musician, I'm only amateur!!
I saw Yes three times in the late '70s in the SF Bay Area. I moved to Austin in the early 90's and saw them in a small venue called The Backyard, which seated about 1500 people. After only seeing them in huge arenas it was amazing to see them up close and personal. It was a kick ass show. Even better, Bruce Hornsby was the opening act.
I first heard this song (and YES) at Mass when I was a sophomore at an all-girls Catholic school. Needless to say, it was a revelation! Love it to this day, 40+ years later.
Esto es arte señores, verdadera música nata del rock progresivo británico. Es emocionante ver a Bill y Alan tocando la baterías, a Steve y Trevor en las guitarras, a Tony y Rick en los teclados, a John cantando excelentemente y al hombre que hizo del bajo un instrumento muy preciado en el rock, el gran Chris que en paz descanse. ¡Viva el Rock! ¡Viva Yes! ...Continuará...
london 1973...bought fragile...hooked for life!...so many wonderfull memories over the decades since...many many live concerts and i am due to see them again in glasgow in may 2024...70 year old man making a complete arse of himself that night...cant wait!!!
Me too. 1971 and the fragile album. Maybe 72. I joined the army as a 17 year old moron. Long Distance Runaround was my favorite song during basic training at ft Polk LA.
I was BORN is a very fortunate Timeline(1952).. Got turned on to FM Radio after leaving the Army(1971). They say Music reflects the Times & got to tell you it was ALL wonderful then..
I had no idea that Yes had played together with this "morphing" of two variations of the band! All very, very talented musicians and Chris Squire... well, what more can be said. He took the bass guitar to unbelievable heights!
Like the play one for me how about why don't you play something for me I really mean it play what you think I'm off to here I do mean it please play something you think I would like
@@davidjohnson4620 we set up a stage like that that freefall the other band was on one side and the other was what you were looking at newborn to mention more do you know who you are replying to I tell you what man we were Brody's we set up stages and all the wiring to eat amplifier at that time you misunderstood me I said Roadies with the r you making Google sound pretty dumb right now where are you at gave you the wings to fly could I hear hand me down world I would like to hear it please
Just a kid with a developing sense of music, I was on my way to the beach with my older, hipper sisters when this song, one of Yes’s few major commercial hits, came on KHJ radio. I fell in love with the song, it’s impossibly unusual and varying sound of master keyboard playing (not yet knowing who Rick Wakeman was) and just after acknowledging how hot Steve Howe is on the guitar while observing Chris’s deft and intricate bass lines, not to mention Alan Whites capable drumming. All this occurring with Jon Anderson’s boyish, fairyland soprano and angelic image takes you to other worlds! Fuck they were tight! I saw them in LB in 73’ when they did the Yessongs tour and it blew my head into little bits that sprayed the seats and people in front of me with glow in the dark brain matter during “Wurm” which was their usual last song. Rick Wakeman and Steve Howe get Into a call and respond toward the end with the synthesizer and guitar that still causes chicken skin that may bleed. Many of todays acts are great dancers and performers but few are virtuoso musicians at the top of their game with their instruments of choice! I’m for talent and skill, not image.
This is the song that started it all for me. Decades later, I have owned my guitar repair biz for 47 years. Met several other players who became musicians because of Yes or Roundabout. As a kid, I honestly couldn't imagine what this band looked like, especially Jon. Oddly, at first it was the keyboard solo that starts at the break that captured me. Later, it was the guitar parts.
I have to say the magic of Yes didn’t really click with me until I went down the rabbit hole of their live performances. Admittedly late in life….but I finally get it. 💕
I get it. I'd heard this piece but didn't appreciate it until a girlfriend related it to me. I have always given it a higher level of respect ever since. Cheers
To anyone that hasn't experienced early (1970s) and classic Yes, can't appreciate the greatness of this band...after 1978s "Going for the One " is my last album in my collection..seen them 10X and was never dissapointed....RIP Allen White......
The musicianship was there then and it still holds true today. Not all can play at this level for this long. These people can and do. Some step up to the plate, these guys kick the plate around because they can. Originators and innovators, prog rock by the roots kids. Listen, learn and love!💖
We felt the same way in 1970 when we saw them at Duke Cameron Indoor Stadium! We were all blown away. They were better than James Gang who they opened for...
One of the best and most underrated bands of my time. Stuff today they call 'music' is laughable compared to these bands I watched live in the 60's and 70's.

First time seeing YES was June 29, 1979 at the Lakeland Civic Center in Florida. They had a rotating round stage in the center of the auditorium. The sound was absolutely perfect. Loved it! Still a favorite in October of 2022.
Saw this band on close to the edge with Bill bruford playing drums phenomenal group I have never seen a more technology advanced band then these guys everything was precise right on target it was almost like the album was playing instead of the band it was just perfect I there are many other groups such as Supertramp that I've seen that were phenomenal but these guys just blew me away 1973 phenomenal year rest in peace Ellen White Chris squire I miss you both be safe to everyone
Brain, they were a little of everything, Progressive, Alternative, Funk, Hard Rock, even Mello and symphonic even Classical. This album alone goes from one extreme to the other- Round About followed by Cans and Brahms! lol They were just an awesome band, period!
So awesome - this band, these musicians, these songs and memories, moods, feelings. Amazing power and interplay. Seeing this band live over the years has been a joy and highlight.
Beautiful sounds from the iconic YES... Jon Anderson leads is all to a better, happier and more peaceful way to live.. 💖🧙🏼♂️☮️ (to believe in our positive selves is the greatest gift that life can bestow upon us... ☮️🧙🏼♂️💖🎶🌈🌍🌟⚡✨)
Nov. 211971...18 years old...college days...a small Florida sinkhole with a stage at the bottom...overhanging live oaks & Spanish moss...and out come Anderson, Howe, Wakeman, Bufiord & Squire...a memory for life.
Dam they look like they are having so much fun with the jam that starts at 5:42...with Squire and Wakeman kicking it off and Steve Howe blasting in and bouncing to the beat...and you know they played this song thousands of times and to come with this much energy!!!
I am so glad this (Yes) was one of the only Concerts that I went to in my younger years. They were the tightest bunch of musicians I have ever heard and maintained that throght their career. CRIS SQUIRE being my #1 favorite of the group then the others. I'M talking a long time ago and they were in their infancy and so was I . I was 20 yrs old and that was 50 yrs ago. (70 yrs old for me) D
Saw the band at the old Glasgow Apollo Theatre in about 76/77. Got there so early we saw the bands sound check via the stage door. Was lucky enough to shake hands with them all as they left the theatre. Happy days.
I'm 66yrs old now and have been listening to YES for many many years. Never had a chance to see them in concert but I heard they put on a unique show. Let their music live on. This is real rock n' roll! I grew up during the absolute best time in the 60's and 70's and of course the 80's. Tickets used to cost $15 for excellent seats. I used to win free concert tickets from radio stations and once won free front row tickets to see GOLDEN EARRING remember them? Yes has always brought incredible music and always will live on!
I used to have this song 🎵 on a 45. Remember those along with 8 tracks? Yes is amazing 👏! Who's listening to this song in 2024?
everyone who respects a genius when they hear it!!
55 years later and I’m still listening to Chris’ signature song as if it was released last week. 😎🎸
the bass line: one of the best of rock'n'roll history.
The bass player, one of the best in Rock and roll history. Loving the Rickenbacker bass in stereo, the neck pickup through a guitar amp, and the bridge pickup through a bass amp. Toothy. Deep. Fucking great.
EPIC! Chris Squire- RIP🙏
He's too much so outstanding!!😮
Bass player's a virtuoso. He plays bass like lead guitar. Truly awesome. Cheers
In my life it is the bass line that set me on my bass playing journey. The bass line!!!!!
We will NEVER hear music of this extraordinary caliber again. Yes were a band of unparalleled innovative and technical ability underscored by some of the most beautiful and lyrical songwriting in the rock canon. We shall not see their like again, I fear.
ok boomer
So very true. When I seen them in concert in the early 70's no other group was like them.
Same here saw them in 70s live in Manchester
After 50 years I still get excited listening to this piece of perfection!
And you. and I
Totally agree.
I had many a front row seats!
me too
So well said!!! So tight, so good, lncredable band!!!
I got turned on to Yes, when I was in high school, 1973-75, loved them ever since!
As did I! Just turned my grandsons on to them and they love them too.😚
70's best time to be in H.S.
The music will never be matched, not even close!
Pure merveille, je ne m'en lasse pas depuis 50 ans ❤❤❤😂
Roundabout still sets the bar as one of the all-time greatest live songs by an amazing band!
They don’t make Music like this Anymore !!! The Music Nowadays Doesn’t Even Come Close To Our Era !!!
My Lord each and every member of this band was a master at his craft! 😊❤❤. Played it 3 times tonight.2023.
RIP Chris Squire, one of the all time greats........
So, there is The Ox (shook his hand), there is Jack Casady, Flea, Phil Lesh... and hundreds of other amazing BASS GUITAR players... but Chris Squire had a vision of positive and high velocity, plus sensitive to emotions, music.

@@billsadler3 Chris Squire is better .
Good balls. None of you even play bass. Just shut up.
Chris te BEST ..bass
Yes es el mejor de grupo de rock progresivo más puro
Man, Jon’s voice is golden, so effortless for him, impossible. Born with it.
Chris Squire-- best bass player to come out of the Uk--- he was frooking amazing-- we luv you Chris
The best?? Hardly but he is definitely in the top three!
I was at this concert in Grenoble France ... what a tremendous experience 🤩😍 RIP Chris and Alan we miss you 😭😭
This is truly an exceptional group of musicians, a different level of playing.
👍
When Round About came out on the radio...it was a now for something completely different.
Just changed everything....mind blowing!
Great band!! I was fortunate enough to see the Yessongs tour and they are still amazing!! Chris Squire RIP!!
Alll master musicians! Wakeman owns that keyboard!
I'm almost 70 so I can remember those days. A masterful performance.
Anderson,Howe,Brufford,Squire,Wakeman..a gift from Gods
Yes
Yes
especially the tour
There using my fav drummer too, alan white
Chris was just a BEAST. Wonderful musician and mightily missed along with Alan. Rock on you guys.
I saw them twice and will never forget it....
I wore this album out back then. Put on the head sets, played the vinyl on my Marantz hifi, whenever had a bad day from abusive father. It was my own personal escape from reality.
Oh, dang! I had a Marantz system. Forgot about that!
Sorry to hear, a great escape though.
These guys are amazing always have always will be. How amazing it was to be born in 1960.🥳🥳🥳🥳

yes talented persons exists and they are making us love!
It Takes incredible monitoring to be able to hear each other or they are just able to follow brufotd the time keeper.
YES always recorded music they could recreate on stage. Couple that with unspeakable talent and you have got the greatest band on earth.
Saw them three times. Never heard a band sound better live. Consummate professionals.
The "tracks are all the players" in that stage my friend.
This is nuts... this is real musicianship... it's live, yet nothing out of place... two keyboards, two drums, two guitars, yet each within it's own sonic space... brilliant...
When you’ve got Howe, Wakeman, Squire and Buford who needs filler?
@@carygson I think the only yes member not there is Trevor Horn
And Jon Anderson just holding it all together with his vocals... Brilliant!!
Wow
Only room for one guitar player. Trevor doesn’t fit in
People put Yes at the top of the mountain as musicians, & they’re right. But what really sets Yes above the other virtuoso bands to me is the writing, the incredible lyrics & the phenomenal melodies. And that voice. Never going to happen again. Jon is once in a century.

My favorite band will always be Emerson Lake and Palmer.
Something that I've been enjoying for over 40 years is ASIA Live In Budokan.
When Greg Lake filled in for John Wetton, and Carl Palmer drumming, it was 2/3 of ELP.
That's when Kozy is Powell got to tour with Emerson and Lake on the Touch And Go tour.
Those two bands over the years have had some of Rocks' finest musicians and singers.
My first indoor concert was ELP on the Brain Salad Surgery Tour, at Madison Square Garden. They toured with about 100 members of the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
That got me hooked on going to concerts.
Great song from a great band. Dont have music like this any more.
There are no words for how good this is. Still think Trevor Rabin is criminally underrated.
By who? known as a great guitar player and writer.
Yep! Rabin and Howe have such different styles, so it's interesting to watch them play together.
Love TR’s influence on the band. He is kinda the glue to the different parts or the salt …
@Justin Farrell
Technically Rabin is a good player, but stylistically he does nothing for me. For one thing his style is stuck in the 80s and it's very trendy. Unlike EVH, Rabin's trend is over.
@@richardboettger6761 so is EVH's - tapped triads and harmonics (and dive bombs) got done to death by the end of the 80s
What an incredible group they had at this concert. Very rare to see Rabin & Howe on stage together. What a treat. 👍😎🔥
Steve Howe is in the top guitarists of all time!
Squire's bass was lead guitar on this one. God I miss him.
Always love how Steve Howe ends this song, with grand gestures as he strokes the last chord
thanks for reminding who was on guitar , was about to look it up
Genious, shear Genious!
The last Chord it's a E major....and the entire song is the E manor chord...BRILLIANT!..Iḿ 67 and i've been my whole life playing and learning this song on guitar and keyboards..I'm not a profesional musician, I'm only amateur!!

Perhaps the greatest live version of Roundabout ever!?!?
That’s when music, became innovative ,, the 70’s were a move away from the problems of the 60’s. A new generation grew up ❤
Great song and great album. I’ve had this album since I was 14 and at the age of almost 60 I still have it.
I first heard this song (and YES) at Mass when I was a sophomore at an all-girls Catholic school. Needless to say, it was a revelation! Love it to this day, 40+ years later.
Such great musicians Still jamming here in South Texas
Can't believe there are any dislikes. This is one of the anthems of rock along with Stairway to heaven! Amazing!
more music innovation in one song then most bands play in their entire careers!

Yes ☺️
If the bass is insane, throw him back into the lake
that's some damn good punchy tone
bass makes the track
welp its chris squire and he’s a god so don’t expect anything boring out of him lol
The two greatest and most recognizable opening guitar harmonics of all time.

Marvin Lima
Because they have more people playing in the band, Than usually.
We felt the same way in 1970 when we saw them at Duke Cameron Indoor Stadium! We were all blown away. They were better than James Gang who they opened for...
A brilliant bassline and keyboards, great guitar, and a wonderful voice= A Unique Sound and Brilliance
One of the best and most underrated bands of my time. Stuff today they call 'music' is laughable compared to these bands I watched live in the 60's and 70's.
to stop and think of what they accomplished at the time in 1971 still amazes me, the musicianship that was displayed is astounding even today.
I saw them in 80’, 85’ and 86’. Great shows, always was and will be a fan!
Simply one of the greatest progressive rock songs of all time!
I'll be the roundabout
The words will make you out 'n' out
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving through the sound and
In and out the valley
The music dance and sing
They make the children really ring
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving through the sound and
In and out the valley
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you
Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you'll see
I'll be there with you
I will remember you
Your silhouette will charge the view
Of distance atmosphere
Call it morning driving through the sound and
Even in the valley
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you
Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you'll see
I'll be there with you
Along the drifting cloud
The eagle searching down on the land
Catching the swirling wind
The sailor sees the rim of the land
The eagle's dancing wings
Create as weather spins out of hand
Go closer hold the land
Feel partly no more than grains of sand
We stand to lose all time
A thousand answers by in our hand
Next to your deeper fears
We stand surrounded by a million years
I'll be the roundabout
The words will make you out 'n' out
I'll be the roundabout
The words will make you out 'n' out
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
Twenty four before my love and I'll be there
I'll be the roundabout
The words will make you out 'n' out
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving through the sound and
In and out the valley
In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there

Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too

First time seeing YES was June 29, 1979 at the Lakeland Civic Center in Florida. They had a rotating round stage in the center of the auditorium. The sound was absolutely perfect. Loved it! Still a favorite in October of 2022.
Saw them same tour in Winnipeg.Can’t forget that round stage.
Saw this band on close to the edge with Bill bruford playing drums phenomenal group I have never seen a more technology advanced band then these guys everything was precise right on target it was almost like the album was playing instead of the band it was just perfect I there are many other groups such as Supertramp that I've seen that were phenomenal but these guys just blew me away 1973 phenomenal year rest in peace Ellen White Chris squire I miss you both be safe to everyone
Yes best alternative rock band of all time we miss you chris.
They weren't very alternative, most consider them progressive, but I guess it's just how one defined alternative.
yes they were very alternative.
Amen
Brain, they were a little of everything, Progressive, Alternative, Funk, Hard Rock, even Mello and symphonic even Classical. This album alone goes from one extreme to the other- Round About followed by Cans and Brahms! lol They were just an awesome band, period!
+washthbrain Yeah the were considered progressive rock which was alternative rock of the 1970's.
Chris Squire’s bass, OMG.
So awesome - this band, these musicians, these songs and memories, moods, feelings. Amazing power and interplay. Seeing this band live over the years has been a joy and highlight.
I love that bass in this song
Was fortunate to catch this tour. Man, they were all there. Incredible. 1 June 1991
Thank you for sharing this song from one of the all-time greatest musical groups. God bless all from Patrick

Nov. 211971...18 years old...college days...a small Florida sinkhole with a stage at the bottom...overhanging live oaks & Spanish moss...and out come Anderson, Howe, Wakeman, Bufiord & Squire...a memory for life.
Dam they look like they are having so much fun with the jam that starts at 5:42...with Squire and Wakeman kicking it off and Steve Howe blasting in and bouncing to the beat...and you know they played this song thousands of times and to come with this much energy!!!
Man, there's no mistaking the sweet sound of a Rickenbacker.
YES Thats the Best and perfect Progressive Rockband.
I Listen them since the seventies. Excellent.
Wunderbar, dass es noch richtige Musik gibt! - Wir lieben euch!
Isn't this amazing? I'm so glad I grew up with these grand artist!
I am so glad this (Yes) was one of the only Concerts that I went to in my younger years. They were the tightest bunch of musicians I have ever heard and maintained that throght their career. CRIS SQUIRE being my #1 favorite of the group then the others. I'M talking a long time ago and they were in their infancy and so was I . I was 20 yrs old and that was 50 yrs ago. (70 yrs old for me)

Saw the band at the old Glasgow Apollo Theatre in about 76/77. Got there so early we saw the bands sound check via the stage door. Was lucky enough to shake hands with them all as they left the theatre. Happy days.
Great music played by great musicians! And I've lived through it all and seen some of these bands live. What a fine time that was!
It's funny that Jojo's Bizarre Adventure promotes good taste in music.

Blown away by such incredible talented
musicians! R.I.P. Chris Squire 🙏🏻
I'm 66yrs old now and have been listening to YES for many many years. Never had a chance to see them in concert but I heard they put on a unique show. Let their music live on. This is real rock n' roll! I grew up during the absolute best time in the 60's and 70's and of course the 80's. Tickets used to cost $15 for excellent seats. I used to win free concert tickets from radio stations and once won free front row tickets to see GOLDEN EARRING remember them? Yes has always brought incredible music and always will live on!
This is just like stepping into Heaven for 9 minutes... can't get any glimpse of such a sublime glory in this life.
This was a great band!!!Jon Anderson has a fantastic voice and the bassist is no joke.Brilliant song!
