  1. What went wrong? Nothing. The problem was lots of record companies were not interested in progressive rock anymore. You needed to make radio hits. If you didn't, the record companies weren't interested. I bought Union a long time ago and never played it. I know Wakeman hates it. Amazing that Squire and Anderson seemed to patch things up after this. Amazing Anderson, Wakeman and Rabin patched things up after this. I miss the old days.

  2. I have been a YES fan for 55 years, as of March, 1971. I saw ABWH, twice — Aug, 1989, and March 1990. There have been 19 YES players, 1968-2026.

    The narrator peppers this story with several bullshit added elements. For example, Rick Wakeman did NOT use a mellotron on ABWH. In fact at the time mellotrons had been supplanted by synth samplers for years.

  3. Sorry this video is historically only half true. Anybody who owns the 2011 remastered ABWH album should know the true history as written in the album liner notes with comments from Anderson ans Bruford. It is completely different than the one told here in this video

  4. From the story I had read, I believe from prog mag about ABWH, alot of the early tracks were pieces of music that they brought together via communications, between Howe and Anderson, not live meetings. When they went to record, Howe did not attend, all his parts pre recorded. He did not want to travel to Monsarot, so the remark about his damaged guitar is fiction. The video recorded of the making, which I still have, shows Howe was not at the island recording of the one and only ABWH album. Bruford had said later, as well as Wakeman, had it not been for the Union venture, ABWH would have continued. They liked what music they wete making. Union destroyed it.

  5. Informative, but a few points left out. Steve Howe had just left GTR a band that lost money and fell apart because Steve Hackett couldn't afford to go further into debt. They were brilliant but did the AOR friendly thing already, they had a radio friendly cookie cutter vocalist and album sales and airplay, so Howe had already played the corporate rock game twice with GTR and Asia. Not to take anything away from two of my favorite musicians of all timee, but they also had a second keyboard and a second guitar player in the back for what was a great live show. Also the last 6 minutes were repetitive and not needed.

  6. Hmm Bill Bruford retired probably a decade after ABWH he did projects with King Crimson and Earthworks after that. I don't think his thesis had anything to do with dealing with Yes.

  7. I enjoyed their debut album. I only wish they had just called the group "No" instead of all of their last names. It was funny when ELP replaced drummer Palmer with Powell so they could just shorten it to ELP, which was what everyone already called them.

  8. 1989''s ABWH tour would have been my first "YES" concert in 10 years since attending every US YES concert during the 70s but my music interest was in a completely different headspace at the time. By then, I rarely listened to Rock at all preferring World & various international music styles from across the planet. A wave of global music genres had finally become popular & hip in the US. After Anderson first left YES along with Wakeman, I did too and hadn't even heard about Drama until years later. I also remember the exact moment I heard ' OWNER' on the radio in my car. It made me chuckle but did little to spark any interest in the 90210 album. So ABWH & UNION past without me even realizing they existed. Not until 1995 with the uneven 'Keys to Ascension' did I began to return to the fold and later noticed that YES were back together with Igor on keys & would be performing in LA for their 'Open Your Eyes' tour. I assumed the set list would be unfamiliar to me but was wonderfully surprised to hear mostly classic YES songs performed again after 17 years. Fortunately, true YES were finally back & I went to every show until they disbanded permanently in 2004. And then 4 years later, when MySpace existed, I sent a message to Jon's page and later received a call from him. We worked together briefly on Animated Visual Effects for songs he'd written about the painter Mark Chagall. He was also jazzed about reuniting with the band for YES's 40th Anniversary. Sadly, that ended along with our projects when he took ill, but after recovering he paid me with concert & backstage tickets to several of his solo shows in the months and years to come.

  9. Please why use that horrendous spooky movie soundtrack for this videos! Its so disturbing. The subjects are great.. the biographies about my favorites musicians but why the spooky soundtrack ?

  10. I loved ABWH, but leaving Rabin was the worst decision Anderson ever made. Still paying for it. Had a chance to go back, but blew it again. Rabins last album was amazing. Also…..Union is one of Yes best albums!!

  12. nothing 'went wrong'. They wrote an amazing cd/lp & toured, its was fabulous, & right in the midst of Yes' albums & a 3rd that it inspired = Union, which was one of the best Yes tours ever & I love the cd despite issues the guys had to work LA/UK & DAW type MIDI work Rick never loved yet he loved the tour …
    ''Yes'' around for 21 years = went right! Chris owned 'Yes' tm & was by Bill's insistence replaced by Tony Levin' 'the only bassist I want to work with'! Awesome stuff.

  13. As a huge Yes fan since the summer of ‘79, upon being played Close To The Edge by my cousin, I bought ABWH, and put it on. What fluff, what cheese, what crap. These 4 guys are Prog Rock legends making watered down s h i t.
