Congratulations ladies! You have just "stumbled upon" the greatest band ever created. Their catalogue is vast and you have just scratched the surface. Pick almost anything from 1970 through mid 80's and you can't go wrong. The Close to the Edge album (all three tracks), "Close to the Edge", "And You and I" and Siberian Khatru". "Awaken" ...featuring keyboardist Rick Wakeman on Cathedral Pipe Organ, "Starship Trooper", "Roundabout", "Ritual", "I've Seen All Good People/Your Move". I could go on, but...just check-em-out, you'll be impressed.

ᎩᏋᎦ! Totally agree. Though it’s a long track, “Close to the Edge”, has blown the mind of just about every reaction channel that has covered it. With at least one that I have followed for years calling it “maybe the best song he ever heard”. And before he started his reaction channel, he was mostly a hip-hop and R&B guy.

Hi Kathy, Lulu, and Donna, I fell in love with Yes' music when I was on the verge of being a teenager in the 1980s. They had come back with a big hit then, "Owner of a Lonely Heart," which led me to exploring their music from the 1970s, and that music blew me away. I think what they accomplished from about 1971-1977 is some of the most powerful, enduring, transcendent music of all time--loved it back then as a teenager, and love it now in my 50s. Yes were formed in the U.K., though they've also had band members from the U.S., Switzerland, South Africa, and Russia pass through their ranks (and, had the famous composer Vangelis joined them, which he almost did, Greece). At one point, the two members of The Buggles (known for "Video Killed the Radio Star," the 80s hit that was the first ever video played on MTV) joined Yes (and the resulting album, "Drama," is also pretty great). Not too many popular music bands can say all that about their history!

Yes was formed in the UK in the late 60's and rose to prominence as 1 of the innovators of progressive rock in the 70's ... Yes were a jam band that could create epic pieces of music that were challenging to play live; they have been a sort of musician's club, rotating members since their inception and debut album in 1969... They have no original members today. This live clip showcased Yes' classic 70's line-up - Jon Anderson (vocals), Steve Howe (guitar), Rick Wakeman (keyboards), Chris Squire (bass) and Alan White (drums)... However, Yes became famous for the hit single - 'Owner of a lonely heart'... in the 80's w/ Trevor Rabin (guitar) and Tony Kaye (keyboards) in the line-up, their 1983 album '90125' being their biggest commercial album. Recap of Yes and their career: Originally formed by Jon Anderson (vocals), Chris Squire (bass), Tony Kaye (keyboards), Bill Bruford (drums) and Peter Banks (guitar)... Yes released 4 albums by 1971 as Steve Howe (guitar) and Rick Wakeman (keyboards) replaced Banks and Kaye... their 1971 (4th)album 'Fragile' becoming a 2x platinum success in the US w/ a prominent single - 'Roundabout'... 5th album 'Close to the edge' in 1972 also sold platinum. Drummer Bill Bruford left Yes to join another prog rock band King Crimson... he was replaced by Alan White (drums) who had been John Lennon's drummer and would record most of Yes' catalog of music from 1973 forward. Yes became acclaimed for their complex, epic arrangements and live musicianship after the release of their 1973 live album 'Yessongs'... considered one of the best live records in music history... also marking the recording debut of drummer Alan White. Yes continued to record successful albums in the 70's like - 'Going for the one' (1977) and 'Tormato' (1978)... but internal disputes led to Yes disbanding in the early 80's after both Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman had left the band... Asia was the band formed in the aftermath in the 80's. In 1983, Jon Anderson (vocals) began working on a new project w/ Trevor Rabin (guitar) but soon recruited Tony Kaye (keyboards), an original Yes member... Chris Squire (bass) and Alan White (drums) signed on and they called themselves Yes... the new line-up released '90125' (their 11th album) in 1983 and it became a 3x platinum hit w/ the single 'Owner of a lonely heart'... Yes found renewed success in the 80's as they released the next album 'Big generator' in 1987 w/ the single 'Love will find a way'... But more disagreements led to more exits by the 90's after 2 more albums - 'Union' in 1991 and 'Talk' in 1994. In 1996, the classic Yes line-up (Anderson/ Howe/ Wakeman/ Squire/ White) reunited for the 'Keys to Ascension' album & tour... followed by 'Keys to Ascension 2' in 1997... but the same internal disagreements led to both Rick Wakeman and Jon Anderson leaving the band by 2004. Yes continued to tour and record new music in the 2000's... eventually they reformed in 2011 after a hiatus w/ Steve Howe (guitar), Chris Squire (bass) and Alan White (drums) and recording 'Fly from here'... w/ Geoff Downes (keyboards) joining... Jon Davison (vocals) eventually joined Yes by 2014 for the album 'Heaven and Earth'. In 2015, bassist Chris Squire passed away... Billy Sherwood (bass) replaced him. Drummer Alan White had to be replaced on tour by Jay Schellen (drums) around 2016... Alan White passed away in 2022. Yes released their latest album 'Mirror to the sky' in 2023... Former vocalist Jon Anderson often tours solo playing Yes songs in concert.

This is from their third album, The Yes Album recorded by original members songer Jon Anderson, bassist extraordinaire Chris Squire (RIP, the only member on every album recorded while he was alive), drummer Bill Bruford (later a member of several other bands, now retired), and keyboardist Tony Kaye. Guitarist Steve Howe joined shortly after the 2nd album appearing in video for songs he didn't record. The keyboardist here is Richard Wakeman, who replaced Tony Kaye. The song itself doesn't start until the whole band comes together for the staccato chords "duh dude du dun duh...." The guitar solo section is dramatically different from the album, but most of the song stays true. Yes, Yes can play. They chose the name Yes because they wanted to make a positive statement. Chris Squire is my favorite bassist. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame after he died. My second favorite bassist, Geddy Lee of Rush, subbed fir him on one sing. Guitarist Steve Howe played bass for a song from when he wasn't in the band.

Going into the 1980's, Yes drifted apart with various members moving on to other projects but after some time, re-invented itself with some new faces including Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes (The Buggles). As a result, the music had quite a different sound from the earlier albums, much to the chagrin of some hard core, old school fans. Regardless, what they have contributed to the musicscape of the last 50+ years is nothing short of epic. I'm so glad that you have had your first taste of Yes, there is so much more to enjoy. I recommend a live version of "And You And I" from the "Union" tour.

Yep that pretty much sums up prog rock. You get a group of musicians who can play the poop out of their instruments.

I bet you ladies would love to hear Heart of the Sunrise from the Fragile album. Jon's vocals are some of the best ever.

GREATEST BAND EVER !!!!!! Listen to their STARSHIP TROOPER, HEART of the SUNRISE or their famous Hit song ROUNDABOUT next! Many of their greatest songs are very long and much more complex. YES weren't a radio band because they were very experimental, mixing together Rock, Classical, Folk, Jazz, Atmospheric styles with atypical poetic esoteric lyrics. Looking forward to your next YES Reaction!!!!

Your reaction is no disgrace when you listen to Hocus Pocus by Focus! 🙂

You have probably heard "Owner of A Lonely Heart" that had a lot of radio play.
