Bruford's drum faces always pretty funny.

for some reason probably because i hate yes it was only yesterday that i heard "parallels" for the first time and it was one of those surprising "wait hold on i actually like this song" experiences
i'm sure as hell not going to listen to every yes song just on the off chance that i might like one of them but it's nice when it happens

I've never considered clicking on the thread of a band I don't like but I can't think of a single band I hate.

never thought I'd see the day Jon Anderson used the phrase "soulless motherfucker" in a song

wow... one for the This Must Be A Tim & Eric Sketch thread?
― Hmmmmm (jamiesummerz), Wednesday, 14 October 2020 19:00 (three years ago) link
I'm unclear on the message here. I thought the unflattering images of Trump in the first chorus meant this was anti-Trump but he's not really a sweet-talker and there are images of Democrats as well, and we see both "gun rights" and "gun control", for instance. So then I thought it might be just general 'both-sides' fatigue like the deYoung song but there are also lots of reminders to vote.
― I guess I'd be lonesome (Sund4r), Wednesday, 14 October 2020 19:04 (three years ago) link
lol yeah "all politicians are crooks but you should get out and vote for them anyway" is kind of a weird message
― frogbs, Wednesday, 14 October 2020 19:07 (three years ago) link
This video is unlisted apparently? This suggests an additional layer of, uh, ambivalence.

Eating an edible in preparation for getting all Yessed out tonight with the 3xLP of Yessongs
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 00:21 (three years ago) link
i hope the edible starts kicking in once howe starts vamping right before the opening riff of "yours is no disgrace"
― reggie (qualmsley), Friday, 16 October 2020 00:29 (three years ago) link
#jelly
― calstars, Friday, 16 October 2020 00:49 (three years ago) link
i should say, i hope the second edible kicks in at that point
― reggie (qualmsley), Friday, 16 October 2020 00:59 (three years ago) link
I just hope the thing plays alright, it was three dollars and it looks like its survived multiple hurricanes
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 01:12 (three years ago) link
more like multiple tormatoes amirite
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Friday, 16 October 2020 01:34 (three years ago) link
xpost I misread that as three LP copies of Yessongs. Like, analog Zaireeka.
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 16 October 2020 01:40 (three years ago) link
alright here we go
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 02:13 (three years ago) link
every copy of yessongs i’ve ever seen looks like it was used for many joint rollings and/or warhammer matches
― brimstead, Friday, 16 October 2020 02:20 (three years ago) link
oh damn there's a little book in here
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 02:21 (three years ago) link
lmao @ the audience hootin and hollerin for "Excerpts from 'The Six Wives of Henry VIII'"
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 03:08 (three years ago) link
man how the fuck do you play Close to the Edge
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 03:47 (three years ago) link
Just plow right through it
― Mr. Cacciatore (Moodles), Friday, 16 October 2020 03:56 (three years ago) link
wow this is really kickin' in
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 04:00 (three years ago) link
HA HA YES THIS IS VERY GOOD
― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 04:06 (three years ago) link

― frogbs, Friday, 16 October 2020 04:20 (three years ago) link

― Deflatormouse, Friday, 16 October 2020 07:11 (three years ago) link
The Yes equivalent of Zaireeka is simultaneously playing all five mid-70s solo albums.
― Halfway there but for you, Friday, 16 October 2020 14:23 (three years ago) link
Hah, totally had a mental picture of frogbs having some sort of R Crumb/Zap Comix freakout, astral rabbit-hole moment whilst balancing his copy of YesSongs on his knee.
― Maresn3st, Friday, 16 October 2020 14:36 (three years ago) link
yessongs is probably their single best recording, and yeah the "total mass retain" section of "close to the edge" has a totally impossible groove, no idea how they pull it off
― covidiot wind, blowin every time you lift your mask (voodoo chili), Friday, 16 October 2020 14:47 (three years ago) link
Only a seasoned witch could pull off such a groove.
― Mr. Cacciatore (Moodles), Friday, 16 October 2020 15:10 (three years ago) link
I actually don't think I've listened to Yessongs since the early 90s, maybe I should give it a spin. Lack of Bill Bruford always ticked me off.
