Rick Wakeman York Barbican 24 2 2024 AND YOU AND I

Band includes Dave Colquhoun(guitars), Lee Pomeroy (basses), Adam Wakeman(Keys), and Mollie Marriott(lead vocals)

[@josemiguelfernandezdemarti7799]

One of the best songs ever written

[@rocketpost1]

Great performance and spectacular cape Rick. Great to see that your cape-wearing days are not over yet. This is a gorgeous song and beautifully played by all musicians. Special mention to Dave on guitars and Mollie for her sterling vocals. What a sound from that 12-string guitar !.

[@VulcanDriver1]

Still brilliant music. Yes music will live forever

[@dennismurphy2979]

I saw the band do this 50 yrs ago today! Tales from Topographic Oceans tour at the Chicago Amphitheater 47th and Halsted

[@doodahdavesrecords4319]

I saw the MSG shows both nights!

[@martybrodell2424]

Excellent!! Kudos to Rick and and the other musicians!

[@paullevine1813]

No surprises as Ricks lost nothing in his playing & Steve Marriott would have been so proud of Mollie for nailing this classic down to the ground . I would have never thought i would her any woman do this without a hitch & that she does. She is lucky in a way she didn't get her dads voice or she's be more like Janis . No one had the power Steve had & she's one lucky lady who no doubt misses her awesome dad even more the we do.

[@thehornseamariner9438]

Very well said.

[@OlafProt]

Molly is utterly gorgeous & fabulous. And from quite a bloodline!

[@nigelericogden3200]

Very nice to hear this song after so many years … thank you 🙏

my hero wears a cape

[@russellfillis6864]

Thank you Rick once again ... This. Is not a swan song . Do mas more. Much more . stay. Healthy and go on ..please.. I love you ... You know...

[@philallitt4096]

Very excellent indeed! Love the ending...better than leaving it "in the air".

[@fingersmaster]

What an enchantment to hear this song sung by a female voice ! Such a change. Beautiful !

[@chriswellstead776]

Great version of And You And I Rick and not a Golf Club in site! Best wishes to you al. l

[@276parpir]

Love this--THANKS!!!!!

[@Robert-ym4wj]

A very beautiful, awe inspiring, rarified and deeply expressive vocal artristry performance by this last minute replacement singer Molly of this classic yes masterpiece track! Thank you Rick for introducing us to this wondrous vocalist!

[@XENONEZZ2]

That was a simply amazing performance from everyone on that stage....and I'm not even a Yes fan...!!..😉🎶

[@brettsanders616]

Nice enjoyed it thanks for posting

Great

[@mariovuksanovic5077]

I like her voice, this version is really good I think. Why doesn't Rick try to get together again with Trevor and Jon now for 2024? The good thing is that Jon is out there going strong, he sounds great. Rick is going strong ( he must exercise and loose at least 50 lbs) but he is a powerhouse, he can do it for us fans. I think that Travor needs to get out in front of an audience from time to time.....he is too talented to only sit in a studio...his solos are amazing... I think it's time for those 3 to get together again.

[@christopherdavies3079]

What an absolute gorgeous piece of music , nicely played by Rick , Dave , Mollie and the whole of the band I suspect that bassist Lee Pomeroy is living the dream playing this classic Prog rock music track which he grew up listening to and now being able to play with his hero Rick Wakeman

[@thomasswift3563]

lee pomeroy was in ARW

[@jamesmicucci7028]

Lee was also on tour with Steve Hackett several years back, when Steve featured Genesis' "Wind & Wuthering" album in the first half of the show...which I also saw SH perform the first time around: Genesis, Hartford 2/25/77.

[@pauloafonsodelucca]

Maravilha !!!

[@thehornseamariner9438]

Thank you!

[@TheScunneredMan]

Didn't know Stevie had a daughter, or that she was in music business. Loved the Small faces.

[@mikewilliams7519]

this is mazing to hear. Such great footage thank you!

[@carlosquijano2827]

Beautiful! 🎉

[@philipholding]

Still going, Rick. Can't keep a keyboard wizard down. Is there a Vindaloo under that organ?

[@ronfrancois]

Not bad for a mobile phone recording.

[@willy1957]

Amazing !

[@PazDesigners]

Yes music is both masculine and feminine integrated - The best modern music over 50 years !!!

[@rocketscience4516]

Well if I'd known he was going to dig out his cape, I would have gone.

[@thehornseamariner9438]

Well said. 100% agree.

[@MofoJuto]

Love Yes, Love Rick Wakeman, I'm glad he's still doing live shows. I've been a huge fan since the 70's, but does Rick really have to dress up like bat man?😁

[@skylarkman2000]

He always looks amazing on a Cape.

[@user-xf3cv6xd1z]

I bought the album in 1975 and my mom loved this song. She was a bit surprised with Chris's bass on Close to the Edge... Best prog album ever ? (hum... Relayer ? Selling England ?)

[@Patrickillian]

Nice 😊

[@catsmeow4264]

Looks like Rick found his own "Band Geeks". Many ways to YES!

[@marklechman2225]

If Rick ever stops wearing the capes I will be sad.

[@johnnyhock]

That cape though !! 😂😂😂😂😂

[@birchsongsltd.6831]

No pressure.😊

[@Sunnywarm12]

Interesting very

[@stuartgallacher9949]

Saw the gig in Glasgow and the sound was horrendous. Must have had a kid on work experience on the desk

[@philipditchfield439]

all we need here is Del Boy and Rodney to jump out dressed as Batman and Robin!

[@robinwatson4282]

Funny. Whenever I see old fuddys still playing, I can't help but think "Oh, hang up yer hat, mate", but seeing old fuddy Wakeman here is still a welcome sight. You want the old Yes blokes to be around forever.

[@robst247]

I'm missing the pedal steel.

[@Steve-ix2un]

Sounds a bit rough, the singer too.

[@BenjWarrant]

It maybe the location of the filmer, but the bass is far too high in the mix and the vocals far too low.

[@dennis7949]

He hired her for a reason. Relax and enjoy the music. Its not easy music to play either

[@grahamhodge8313]

I'm glad that Rick is still touring but she is no replacement for Jon.

[@letsrock781]

Wish Rick would loose the cape now.

[@skylarkman2000]

It an essential item , part of His image .

[@steve-zschannel2729]

Been a fan for over half a century, don't think his finger dexterity is there anymore, more than half the notes in the fast runs were missing, such a shame 😢

[@carstenhohmann2955]

Where's J0N ANDERSON

[@thehornseamariner9438]

This was not a Yes concert so no Anderson or, indeed, Howe.

[@J.AntonioCosta]

poderia ter escolhido um timbre melhor no roland para substituir o mellotron

[@BassistPaul]

Not sure I think it's pro to rely on an iPad for a performance. We wrinkly musos used to learn stuff.

[@theambientassembly]

As another, slightly, "wrinkly muso" I have some empathy with your comment. However, I've learned that as we get older, we sometimes lose track where the world is in the "now". For the modern day singer/artist I suspect the length and complexity of this song, plus Jon Anderson's tongue twisting lyrics could prove a challenge to almost any singer. I'm not saying modern artists aren't up to the challenge, it's just that this type of song format isn't the norm now. Also, there could have been time constraints in rehearsals and God knows what other gremlins that meant the singer felt more confident of delivering the best performance to the audience if they had a reference. From an anecdotal perspective, I've played a few local live gigs with younger (and not so young) singers and they all blatantly read from paper sheets or screens. I don't know what it is, the age of iPhones etc. - it just seems to be quite fine by the audience for singers to read the lyrics as they sing these days.

[@yvonrouillard9755]

Jon is the only one who can sing this song. sorry but the soul is missing

[@thehornseamariner9438]

But the music isn't ... there won't be an Anderson/Rick collaboration any time soon so why deny yourself the pleasure of this excellent song

[@togmembership5438]

Why not just put the phone down and enjoy the concert? Instead of a annoying all around and murdering it with poor phone audio quality.

[@thehornseamariner9438]

Just FYI sir/madam (and for anyone else who wondered) the phone was placed nowhere near anyone else's line of vision. I have too much respect for others to do that. As for the sound quality, that is for the listener to judge.

[@bellodrade]

They used their phone to capture this video. You commented on the channel and stated that it was a bad idea that they used their phone to capture this video upon which you stated that it was a bad idea that they... well, I guess you get the point.

[@philfyphil]

Oh stop moaning!

[@eduardorogeliorodriguez7012]

La coloradita era mejor

[@blzbob7936]

Sorry, that sounds horrendous. Really pleased Rick is still up for touring, but having a singer reading the words karaoke fashion? Nah sorry, not impressed. But I saw Rick and Yes in their prime in the 70's, so I would say that!

[@philfyphil]

What did you expect from a bloody iPhone?

[@blzbob7936]

fair comment,@@philfyphil

[@mariovuksanovic5077]

Oh go complain somewhere else...or get up stage and show what you have to offer to the world. If Rick Wakeman thinks that this is what is what he wants to offer us at this point and time, then so be it. There will be different things along the journey and this is now what he wants to share with the world. Bravo Rick Wakeman....

[@thehornseamariner9438]

@@philfyphil No iphones were harmed during this recording.

[@mikehetherington8484]

I was at the gig in York and it was a great night. For all the moaners and groaners, Molly was a late substitute as Hayley Sanderson was unable to perform. Of course if you guys fancy a go, try learning completely unknown lyrics for a tour in a few days. Get real.

[@AnthonyWilliams-ew3wp]

Not bad but a bit hit and miss imo. I’d still pay to attend. But I’d probably come away sad that I can never see the real Yes again. No Jon,no Yes.

[@nickdryad]

No

[@FransbertSchermerMV]

No-body is......😊
