I'm surprised his Howard Stern interview isn't easier to find, I'd like to hear it. Apparently he was the first big guest Stern got to pick himself?

So, have you guys noticed this thing where the intro for 'Roundabout' is being used in meme-esque video clips where some sort of collision or confrontation is imminent. Except, right when the collision/whatever is going to happen, the video freezes just as the whole band joins in and 'Roundabout' begins, with a "To be continued" text somewhere on the screen. And that's it.
Where does this come from? I find it equally intriguing and hilarious that 'Roundabout' has found its way into "meme culture" in such a random way. And I find that every time someone uses it in one of their videos, the funnier it gets for me.

Is there a better Yes song than "Going for the One?" I don't think so.

Is there as a good a Yes song as "Going for the One?" I haven't heard it.
Yessongs (the live movie) is on Amazon Prime streaming right now and it is fucking great

I'd say go for the first one, the first side of which is some of the best music Yes never put out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoLcQ4LIRyU
Second album Fountains of Light is probably slightly better overall though
On Citadel they'd gone into more of a Kansas/Styx type direction, I still love it though
Haven't heard anything after that
― frogbs, Monday, 4 December 2017 21:21 (eight years ago)
Anyway I'm playing the new Yes live album now - it's not all bad, Sherwood fills in quite nicely for Squire, Davison sounds alright, the version of "Ritual" is good and it's kind of neat to hear all of Drama on a live album
but man, it's depressing to hear them so out of sync at spots, especially when the quick tunes like "Tempus Fugit", "Heart of the Sunrise", and "Roundabout" are only played at 75% speed. IDK maybe they come off better in person.
― frogbs, Monday, 4 December 2017 21:26 (eight years ago)
nice to have a discrete "leaves of green" on an *official* release
― reggie (qualmsley), Monday, 4 December 2017 22:06 (eight years ago)
ahaha so apparently they're re-releasing Fly From Here with Trevor Horn on vocals, effectively erasing Benoit David's brief tenure with the band
― frogbs, Monday, 11 December 2017 14:53 (eight years ago)
never fear there's always like the four live albums they released from tours with him

Listening to live at Wembley show,1978, from a BBC broadcast. Jaw droppingly awesooooome. Prob some of my fave live versions of their stuff here. Even the "Tormato" tunes were on fire.
