Yes - And You And I (Live at Montreux Jazz Festival 2003)

Yes are one of the most innovative and successful rock bands of all time with a career that now spans five decades. In 2003 the band made their first appearance at the Montreux Festival, despite having a long association with the town itself (they recorded there frequently in the seventies). It was a triumphant night and is regarded by both the band members and fans as probably the finest Yes gig ever to be filmed.

Thank you God for giving us ears and Yes.

[@christianhorwarth6844]

I've had the privilege to see Yes twice in my life. They are amazing and so professional of musicians. They are deep in my soul, If I'm feeling down all I need to do is to think of one of their songs and I feel it note for note. I think they are our modern day, Mozart , Bach and Beethoven . I hope their music is playing in heaven if I am allowed to go there. Every song is different and played with such skill . Bless all the members of Yes.

[@pfeffer271]

their best song ever ii could listen to this song every day

[@Naughtyjug]

When I was about 7 years old, I remember one rainy day at school that forced us all to play in our classrooms after lunch. On such days, the main office would pipe the radio through the primitive PA system. The local radio station that day played "And You and I" in its entirety and I remember thinking 'man that was an incredible piece of music' (even at age 7). Many years later I rediscovered the song as part of my discovery of Yes. There it was clear and brilliant in my memory like a gem.

[@danstapleton7753]

Naughtyjug love that story dood, or is it doodette?!

[@petermasterson5865]

What a really cool story of that experience you had! My first intro to Yes was when my cousin John asked me to bring his big radio to from home to him at his friends house. It was 1981 and I was 13 and he was 17. I noticed the cassette in the radio and pressed play! OMG, Round About filled the airwaves, my ears never heard such a majestic sound. I still remember that awesome day as I carried that big radio in Rockaway NY to cousin Johnny!!

[@waynespeirs1024]

What came from this piece of music was awakened an unbelievable piece of as far as I'm concerned the best song they ever did

I've got to agree with you there. I can't help thinking though that bearing in mind the age of all us original fans, there's a great Halloween performance somewhere down the line just waiting to happen with all of us turning up looking like the living dead

[@saleconomos473]

Oh yee of little faith. As old as we ancient fans may be, I prefer to think we will never be " like the living dead". That would be averse to what this song is all about. This is YES.... and that's affirmative enough for me.

I agree and I've seen the 4-times!

I was born in 1949 - and so was in my very early 20s when "Yes" hit the airwaves. I was in a French-Canadian Jazz-Rock fusion band in Canada (CANO) - and we were in rehearsals when our bassist played 'Roundabout' for us. We stopped rehearsal just so we could THINK about what we had just heard.

[@richlang7298]

Watching Steve Howe move from guitar to guitar --- the GOAT of all time! And Jon's voice --- so many years (for me since 1973) thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@TheGreatTomdini]

I cry every time I sit and play my keyboards along with YES in this live recording. Such a beautiful composition, and performed gorgeously. Wakeman's solo is stirring. I can't believe Squire's gone. I felt his presence in my studio earlier while playing the Moog lead following the first chorus. RIP Fish. I love the aura of this recording.

Then this is what the feeling of joy sounds like.

First heard this when I was 9 years old….my brothers album. Instantly fell in love with as well as Roger Deans album cover art! Drew lots of pictures in school inspired by his art. There’s a DJ here in St. Louis that stated if he were stranded on a deserted island and could only have one album to listen to for the rest of time, it would be Yes’ Close to the Edge. My pick too! STILL my all time favorite album…..just incredible, beautiful music!
