Hugely underrated song IMO.
One of my top fave Yes songs.
One of their most underrated songs!!!
I totally agree. It’s one of their most beautiful, emotional song.
Quite possibly my favourite song by Yes. A slow starter, building melodies, fantastic soloing and so evocative of a summer's day. Timeless.
I really love the middle part of this song. That guitar solo followed by the harmony singing is pure magic.
YES! 😊 I've always enjoyed this song. An underrated YES song.
An under-appreciated Yes classic
Great closing song for Relayer. Like most of Yes' closers, To Be Over fits as a fitting conclusion to everything that precedes it on the album. Especially the ending of the song, like most closing songs on other Yes albums.
Going for the One - Second Look
Hi Justin, great, thoughtful reaction, as always. You might try some of the solo efforts by YES musicians that came during this period. "Olias of Sunhillow" and "Fish out of Water" are both great.
Guitar mastery you'll hear nowhere else. Howe's ability to transmit emotion and create those beautiful Grand Themes. The solo section I find exquisite but the Gotcha point is where he returns to the grand theme at the end. Masterpiece.
Thanks for the forum!
Justin you are that younger generation that does not like to think about the meaning and feelings of lyrics.One of the best songs on this album. I would put this one second after Soon!
Appreciate your honest review. And how you explain the why's and wherefore of them. Keep on digging deeper into prog!
Nice reaction. I agree it does have the cleanest sound on the album. It is one of my favorite YES songs.
This is the Yes song that has crept up on me the longest and the hardest.
First listen - it’s ok. Pretty good.
100th listen - I love it.
1,000th listen - Amazing song!
Also we're al so glad Steve found that Telecaster. As I recall, it had a humbucker pickup in the neck position.
Agree, this track is like a relief from the sonic attack. Guitar solo is incredible, I challenge any of the shredders to play it!
Album closer "To Be Overr" is a gentle ballad with an atmosphere like a rainstorm in a greenhouse; Howe's slide guitar playing sounds like Hawaiian legend Sol Hoopii gone sci-fi. 'Relayer' is as weird as Yes ever got, and is unique in their catalog for exactly that reason: You can't pull a trick as dense, baffling, and awesome as this more than once. - Stereogum (excerpt)
Yes, it seemed, had found a way once more to balance challenging song structures and the determinedly spiritual, deftly combining these tried-and-true elements of their sound with ever-more-complex instrumental interludes. Squire and White have never sounded more in sync, while Anderson constructs some of his most involving prose poems. In keeping with its recording site inside Squire’s garage, Howe provides the project’s edge, adding crunchy electric and pedal steel guitar throughout what quickly became known as one of Yes’ most musically complex albums. This all but ensured that the endlessly challenging 'Relayer' (thanks in no small way to the fizzy creativity of Moraz), re-released with a 5.1 surround-sound remix, couldn’t match the UK charttopping success of either its predecessor 'Tales from Topographic Oceans' or the subsequent 'Going for the One.' - SOMETHING ELSE! reviews ‘Relayer’: ‘Very Close to the Edge of Jazz Rock’ (edited excerpts)
'Relayer' is probably Yes' best opus, a manic jam session that places the group's instrumental dexterity at the service of a ferocious combination of free jazz and heavy metal. - The New Rolling Stone Album Guide
They each did a SOLO project after this, that is what fills the gap in time between Relayer and GFTO.
Again, another gorgeous masterpiece! Opening with such beauty as it gradually swells into Steve's first solo is trademark 70's YES orchestration. Jon's sweet flowing melody with Chris' great harmonies swoons us right into another wicked Steve solo with cowboy then Hawaiin slide guitar sensibilities. The Fugue-like section is again what I love about 70's YES in the way the members intertwine and overlap their lines to weave a hypnotic magic carpet pattern of sonic bliss. HOLY Esoteric! I'm sounding like Jon! BTW great new interview with him on YT by a guy named @marcbeckman. After RELAYER in 75 we got lucky with each member releasing Solo albums. Jon's concept album 'OLIAS" is a transcendent world music influenced masterpiece along with Chris' rhythmically cool solid unindulgent "FISH OUT OF WATER" that sounds the most like YES, are the 2 bests. Steve's "BEGINNINGS" is nice but a bit uneven while Alan's "RAMSHACKLED" can be summed up by its title. 🙃but Patrick's "THE STORY OF i" is an amazing whirlwind and the album that most sounds like a sequel to RELAYER, fusing his chops with Brazilian rhythms. I was just getting into the music of Carnaval in 75 so his ProgSamba vibes were pretty progressively impressive to me
Great comment.
"Spring - Song of Innocence" with Jon, Steve, and Alan is a gem
YES!!!! Going For The One again. I really think you'll appreciate it so much more now that you have heard how they got there. GFTO is my favorite. You are the best...
this is relayer
@GES8215 no shit. I guess you didn't listen to Justin till the end of the video
@@kennethmckinney2532 I guess you did
@GES8215 just to explain Justin did Going For The One a while back at my request. That's why I am.so stoked if he does it again. He liked most.of it the first time but I think he will really love it this time...
Eddie Offord: At that point I'd built my own [mobile] studio and it was kind of special for them... I just set up at Chris's house and we did [Relayer] there on it. It was nice in a lot of ways to have our own place. I think that was really cool.
Patrick Moraz: I understand the recording of "Relayer" itself, probably because it was done at a private studio---which was state of the art, though---wasn't as good as some of his other recordings with ELP or previous Yes... I think the production of "Relayer" is pretty loose, but the energy is there ... I was totally overwhelmed, because they played so fast and so precisely and so well. The swing was there. I had never heard such original music, except for what Mahavishnu Orchestra was doing at the time. I must say that I had to have a lot of guts to sit at the keyboards and try to play along.
Such a great song on such a great album! YES!!! The greatest band there ever was or will ever be!🤩
Another great assessment. Good job.
Yes:To Be over
Hopefully 😂
I’m guessing you’ve already done a relisten to Going for the One. Hope so. It’s in my top two or three Yes albums.
I don't think of it as a continuation of Tales given the change in keyboard person as well as the format. Also, Gates has a single theme in a one side whereas Tales is a single concept (of four parts) on four sides. And yes, I agree with you that there is a low level of noise through much of the recordings that are clearly a production side issue, not a music issue. I'm cool with you doing GFTO a second time if you've already done it. A lot of Yes songs, even the shorter ones, can do with additional listens to get out of them what was put into them.
I enjoyed this track the most of all on this album.
Ya cool ! On to the next one ✨️🎶✨️
You need to listen to Fish Out of Water by Chris Squire (released in 1975) and Olias of Sunhillow by Jon Anderson in 1976. Classic Yes solo albums in between Relayer and Going for the One.
Moraz and Bruford both play on Fish Out of Water also, just FYI. Very interestingly cool!
IMO the more recent epic thing along the lines of Yes is Rhapsody the Symphony of enchanted lands title track from 1997 Im so grateful u delved so much into Yes... Very thorough.
Howe does a nice version of this song on his "Natural Timbre" album with no vocals, but using many guitars doing various other parts (it's on TH-cam).
Steve does a REALLY NICE acoustic solo instrumental version of this song on his album "Natural Timbre."
They weren't so much running out of ideas as ways to present those ideas in a form that would engage and excite the listener. Although I'm not the biggest fan of Tales, I can recognise that the first three sides are all really well structured. Gates Of Delirium has a definite progression, each section invoking a mood that transitions naturally into the one that follows. This track and Sound Chaser both give the impression that they're ad hoc collections of left-overs - which is almost certainly not true, but the work that must have gone into putting these tracks together hasn't made them sound any more cohesive.
Yeah! Do Going for the One again! Well, I hope you've chosen to do it...
Yes, please continue with the next album - Going For The One. I've been really enjoying your trip through the Yes catalogue. It's like reliving my journey with Yes in fast forward. Thank you for all that you do.
Justin did the Going for the One album 7 months ago.
@@frisco4758 Thanks for the update. However, he did ask to comment on whether to do it again or not. Have a great weekend!
@@hansrubec4921 I suggested that he do the songs on the next album again, but with live versions from Yesshows, Keys To Ascension DVD, and Yes Live Glasgow 1977. That last video is a poor pro shot that looks like a bootleg. The audio only remastered bootleg of Yes Live In Boston is very much better quality, but includes Colours Of The Rainbow before Turn Of The Century.
Excellent review. Your pointing out of the harmonics and wah filter on the bass are things I heard but didn't really think as to what they were -- this will add to my appreciation. I personally never saw Relayer as a continuation of Tales - I see it more as a progressive step up from CTTE. This sound issue is my bane, and I think that Going For the One has it's issue too. I find that recording (apart from Awaken) to be on the bright side, kind of tinny sounding, and there is a separation issue there too. Anyway, I'm sure you're done listening to that one too, so I'll wait till you post.
Between 1975 and 1976, they took a bit of a hiatus and all five Yes members recorded solo albums. They still toured as a band during this period with Patrick Moraz on keys. Then in late 1976, they began work on _Going for the One,_ in which Moraz was a big part of the writing process. I'm not sure exactly what happened for Yes to part with him, but some of it may have had something to do with them wanting Rick Wakeman back in the fold. As to re-listening to _Going for the One,_ it may be a good idea to listen again with fresh ears and perhaps pick up on some stuff you may have missed the first time around. It will only further your enjoyment of the album, in my humble opinion. But as you said, the decision will have already been made, by the time you read this comment, so ... 😏
I remember encountering Moraz back in the 90's, and based on that -- and others' accounts -- I can see how he might not be the easiest personality to spend long periods of time with. I mean, there's a reason he only lasted one album with Yes, AND had issues with the guys in the Moody Blues when he was in that band. So I can totally believe when the prospect of getting Rick back in Yes became a thing (because Rick was broke), they basically leapt at the chance!
@@yes_head Thank you for the wonderful insight. That really helps to clarify things!
I always really liked this one. Most friendly song by far.
IMO, The best mixes, Best sounding yes albums are TYA and Drama. Even on the old vinyl versions.
If you want to do G4T1 again, you should react to live verions of the 5 songs on that album. Title track, Parallels, and Wonderous Stories are on Yesshows, Awaken on Union Live DVD and Keys To Ascension DVD, and Turn Of The Century on Yes Live In Glasgow 1977 which is a pro shot never officially released.
There are very few perfect albums in life, this is one of them. Musically, it's just a bit of a miraculous achievement. Again Roger Dean's artwork completes the package, invoking synchronistic imagery in the mind's eye. It occurs to me Howe's sitar also feels metallic, like the artwork,
And has a sense of belonging in the context.
This album was a deliberate punch in the face reaction from all the hurtful criticism Yes received after Tales from Topographic Oceans.
"YES doesn't ROCK anymore, etc. The band were angry and determined to prove the critics wrong, and were kinda lost about what to do next after this one. NO MORE CONCEPTS !
The only natural path forward was to reunite with Wakeman, who had since had a heart attack and died on the operating table, but was revived, and became a born again Christian from that NDE experience. Going for the One has a relaxed heavenly feel to it, because of all the trauma everyone endured from the previous few years ✌️ To Be Over is such a beautiful one of a kind song.
Magical ❤
This song really does have some beautiful parts. Reminds me a little of Awaken. My ear is not really in tune to hear the sonic things you hear but I believe you. I do like the three songs on Relayer all much more than anything on Tales. I’m sure you’re right about the recording. I think for me I just like the songs better. Tales is just too much for me to take in all at once and as a consequence I probably unfairly didn’t listen to it enough over the years.
Chronic Sonic congestion syndrome? The TBO composition maybe could have been more adventurous or "developed"? Agree that White and Squire had some really cool synchronized parts and in the beginning of Sound Chaser as well. I really, really like Going for the One...Wakeman's piano interplay with Steve's slide...attaboy Cowboy!
Cover is fantastic. Roger dean😮
Great reation
I checked to see if you've reacted to Chris Squire's "Fish Out Of Water". Don't see it. They all released solo albums between this and GFTO but Chris's is the only one I'd recommend. It features both Moraz and Bruford.
Beatiful.
.... texturas. Esa es la respuesta a tu pregunta ... no es lo mismo la forma como compone mozart y las transparentes texturas que obtiene y lo que puede hacer stravinsky y el sonido crudo y denso de muchas de sus piezas. Algo mas denso recomiendo el Requiem de Ligeti. No se puede culpar exclusivamente al ingeniero de mezclas del resultado de la superposición de las capas y capas de sonido que puede llegar a tener una composición.
I loved this band since 1970 at High school first saw the 1973 TFTO tour and they were imperious, sublime up, to GFTO in 1977. As i stated on your Gates comments it's your opinion. You continue using the word sonic can you explain what you mean ? But great review. Tales was hated by the British press who would go full blown punk a couple of years later.
Nice work Justin. I would like to see you do a lengthy review of Awaken. Its their last real high quality piece.
My reaction to To Be Over was pretty much, "Nice, but not the kind of thing that grabs me..." I judge it to be one of Steve Howe's more 'meh' songs. I mean, compared to his amazing Turn Of The Century, this one was just a shoulder shrug for me...
Perfect! Bravo. I could not of said it better. Know what I wish? The sound of Howe in Asia - in Yes.
80’s retrofuture brought to you by Steve Howe & his army of Anime!
Looooots of early Anime circa VHS 1981-1987 had soundtracks and they sounded like……..Yes?
Or ELO…..Time Album.
😎
Divine Beauty. I love cowboy Steve.
For me this album picks up where Close to the Edge left, and Tales of etc. is more like a strange panoramic parenthesis, a quite different side of the band
Some of the sung parts could be from Time and a Word
Thought I'd try to get this in before you get to that point. IMO -- Going for the One is Yes' last true musical statement. Everything that comes after is a sidebar. There are some nice moments among the next 4 studio albums but they all pale in comparison to the previous material. Actually, Drama, musically, is in the realms of Fragile, but without Anderson's voice it's....I can't find the descriptive. I could say that it's not a "Yes" album but it definitely sounds like a Yes.album, but without Anderson it looses something in a big way. What it does have is great production - a bit late for that. 90125 is a great POP album, but that's it. So, the real journey pretty much ends with GFTO.
Best track on the album by far. Still not one of their top ones and overlong, but really satisfying.
To Be Over' is a fine conclusion to the album, releasing the tension built up in “The Gates of Delirium” and “Sound Chaser” and especially in sound improvement, but musically this kind of gentle stuff isn't what I'm looking from Yes on the whole. For me, Relayer's consistency and and originality lies in its first two tracks.
You who appreciate Rick Wakeman's playing and sound, I'm not sure you'll like Rick's playing and keyboard sounds on Tormato, which frequently conflict with Steve Howe's guitar! This is one of the criticisms I'll make about Tormato, which is nevertheless an album that I prefer to Going for the One, which never spoke to me (for various reasons).
For this stretch, I feel both Tormato and Going for the One are really uneven. Some good stuff, some great stuff, and some not so great stuff. I actually prefer Fish Out of Water over both Tormato and GFTO.
@@cobbycaputo3332 I agree, Chris Squire's Fish Out of Water is excellent!
I don't always agree with you, but I enjoy listening to what you have to say about songs and I respect your opinions. Really hoping you just skip to their DRAMA album. That's the one where people are usually pleasantly surprised. I personally love it.
For me it feels kinda flat after two exciting songs before that one. The next album is....excellent ! Going for the one ! ;-)
If you're doing Going for the One again maybe do a few live like this for "Awaken" : th-cam.com/video/nDXccU0xgNo/w-d-xo.html
I think you are officially a Yes fan. Rarely do you.or have you disliked a tune or so it seems. Makes me almost wish you hadn't already done Going For The One ahead of all of the stuff you have done since. I just think you would appreciate more after hearing where they had come from and how they got there. Wakeman kills it on Going For The One. Tormato is mostly good also but more just songs and not epics...
Do it again! Have you done Tormato or Drama?
not yet
@DanPemberton he has done On The Silent Wings Of Freedom as a donation request and really liked it. I honestly think he will enjoy at least 80% of Tormato. Circus Of Heaven might be interesting lol
@kennethmckinney2532 I am really glad J provides this forum. Thanks for your thoughts. I agree. It's been a while since ive listened to the album in total. Would really enjoy it. I also think he would appreciate Trevor Horn production input on Drama. I remember it as sonicly pristine. Have a great day. Love that Yes!
@@DanPemberton he did Tempis Fugit as a donation request also and loved it...
I'd bet money he'll love 'Drama'.
So this song I can relate to better than the Jazz or bust genre on some of these. But clearly not the best Yes. But really isn't Steve one of the coolest humans ever to walk the Earth? the other thing is that it can be "Prog" and still it is not necessarily good. Just like any other genre. I'm deeply into Prog. but this is just not the best Prog. to me, and Yes has done better.
Lifelong yes fan, have attended over 20 concerts and they are my favorite band. This album sucks let's just be honest. There I've said what I said
Taking nonsense
