The Final Cut is a masterpiece and a fitting finale to Pink Floyd’s career. I don’t consider the post-Waters albums to be genuine Floyd albums. In fact I consider Waters’ solo albums to be far superior, especially ‘Amused To Death’ and ‘Is This the Life We Really Want’. These two albums are on a par with any of the classic PF albums of the 70s. Gilmour’s guitar solos are excellent and another high point in his career. It’s a softer album, requiring a few careful listens but it definitely grows on you. The use of sound effects is revolutionary and was expanded upon in Roger’s later solo work. I think a lot of the negative feeling towards The Final Cut comes from people who disagree with Roger’s political views but personally I’m in agreement with these too.

You're trippin' bruh, Corporal Clegg is a banger. And they did it with a kazoo. A FCKING KAZOO!!!

The Marked Men, Autolux, Battles, Wavves, Jay Reatard, The Whitest Boy Alive. Next time you do a history of rock and roll, you should put more emphasis on the ROCK! part of the genre. That way cooler, soulful, and more obscure band could get some recognition. But Great Video, thanks!

Lots of people have said lots of nice things about this album. It seems to find a place, deep inside, for me. It doesn't get old.

Sounds great! Could tell you were in to it! Which MSG Gilmour show will you be at? I'll be at the Tuesday show. See you there!

I have always thought that this album was a concept album about a heroin addict that ODs and ends up in a coma

Unfortunately Panic At the Disco became a part of the Machine for their last 3 albums. I called them the Brandon Urie Project instead since it was just Urie himself.

@JTCurtisMusic, If you're still open to suggestions heres some other bands looking into. Tame Impala Dirty Honey Thank You Scientist Baroness Ariel Pink Twenty One Piolts Florence & The Machine Royal Blood Fleet Foxes Parquet Courts Wolf Alice Highly Suspect Nothing More Moron Police Oh Thee Seas Ty Seagull Badflower Foals Dinosaur Pile-up

Yep..they were from another world way after 2024

Close to the edge is epic Yes!

John Anderson is one of the few singers that has a speaking voice that matches his singing voice.

Complete the Waaaaaaaa- -(sad wind noises)

I guess I just don’t get it; most of the studio songs sound like instruments falling off of a truck 🤷‍♂️

I saw a lot of people's comments including myself wanting a 2010s videos. I don't know if i wanted it at all, but due to you guys celebrating 10 years of the History of Rock and Roll, I can see why you would want to do the video. Either way, I'm excited for it to happen. The 2010s will be very interesting. I will be very surprised. Social media will definitely be talked about. The Internet has evolved onto our phones, and we would be listening to music on Spotify, Apple Music and RUclips Music. I'm not sure if the 2012 Olympics will be talked about, but The Who was the closing band for the closing ceremony. They were unfortunately the last band to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show as they would go back to popular artists performing at the halftime show. It's not about talent. It's about money. I forgot to mention some of the garage rock bands you mentioned like The White Stripes, The Strokes, The Black Keys and The Hives are fan favorites on Little Steven's Underground Garage. They play older bands of the 60s and newer bands of the 2000s and 2010s, which would made a huge appeal to me. The Ramones get played on here a lot as well. They play music that influenced The Ramones, The Ramones, and bands influenced The Ramones. MySpace was the first social media page before Facebook. I'm not sure if it's not around anymore, but it has been downhill.

Whenever I say, "They don't write 'em like they used to," Close to the Edge is the song that comes to mind.

I like to think all of us here have gone through our "memorizing Siberian Khatru's free-form section (doo-dah-dah-do-dah!) near the end" phase. I use it to annoy my girlfriend while I drive!

I don’t mind the orchestra on the long and winding road and across the universe because it gives it a finale vibe especially in the long and winding road (yes I know Abbey road is supposed to be the finale but that doesn’t really have a final vibe except the end)

The Narrow Way is pretty cool and kind of heavy

I don’t know if Echoes on here is better or worse than the studio version. All the non Meddle tracks are definitely better than the studio versions.

The cow is there because of the psychedelic mushrooms I would imagine took me quite a while to come up with that but why wouldn't they just admit it except for the fact that they have been trying to distance themselves from the drug fueled Sid days

'If' is a beautiful tearjerker, but it's the sort of song you can't really listen to again and again, since it's so heavy, especially if you've ever experienced a breakup or a rift in a friendship. 'Summer 68' is a guilty pleasure, I think the lyrics are pretty clunky and are just sort of dragged along by the music without any rhyme (literally), but god *what music.* My interpretation of the title track is that the cow *is* important, at least conceptually. To go absolutely insane, you could say 'Atom Heart Mother' refers to the relationship between a rapidly-changing and alien world, and a person trying to find meaningful connection in the little things. The Atom is the atom bomb which redefined perspectives on progress, the Heart is the person, and the Mother is the cow (since cows are symbolically associated with motherhood). In my eyes (or ears), the piece follows a farmer and a cow trying to make do in a rapidly changing world (the gunshots and army vehicles representing the war), but the cow wanders off, and the farmer has to travel far outside his space to find her again. He finds things and meets people who are new to him, who give him the strength to persevere (the chanting segment and the reprise of the main horn theme). Then he enters a decrepit, 'modern' world with flashes and beeping and loud screeches, having to confront the change directly before he finally emerges in a sort of katabasis, and reunites with his cow as they triumphantly return home. It's like an ode to the people who lived through these rapid changes and horrific moments in history, having to confront them in order to maintain the love and connections that they have.

At least once, Jon confessed that many of his lyrics were just stringing together words that he thought sounded smart and cool. But, like with many bands, the music came first. Words were just an afterthought. Heh. But if you find yourself singing along, you will find yourself uttering nonsense. 😜

Funny you mentioning Howe leaving space at the beginng of And You and I. See Steve. You can leave space! 😉

Jon Anderson's voice tends to rate as love it or hate it. But with all the interesting things and virtuosity going on here, his uniqueness blends perfectly with the rest. An instrument that would be sorely missed.

The first 27 club member was Robert Johnson.

Wow!! This is great!! Love Yes music so much!! So interesting to hear how this epic song came to be! Great job!!

I was glad to hear you say that Close to the Edge could be the greatest album ever made bc I have believed that since April 8th 1973. While in 10th grade I saw that concert tour and then played the LP so many times, I swear the needle must have wore through the vinyl and you could hear the songs on the other side. As you might think I worshipped that recording and group. What a great analysis you did in this video, thanks.

Best Yes album is Going for the one

I enjoy Close to the Edge so much! I also like Fragile and The Yes Album. Also, Tales from Topographic Oceans and Relayer. ❤

The time is ALWAYS right for Prog Rock!!!!❤❤❤

It's too early to do the 2020s History of Rock and Roll, but if it happens, two highlights of the decade would be The Rolling Stones releasing Hackney Diamonds, their best album they done since Some Girls. The other being Gojira performing at the opening of the Paris Olympics that just happened Friday. The first time a metal band has ever performed at the Olympics. That's going to introduce people to both Gojira and metal if they never listened to them prior to the performance. That's a great highlight. And I'm sure The Beatles Now and Then will also be talked about since this is their final song. So make that 3 highlights to talk about if the 2020s video will happen. I won't be bummed if it doesn't get made. But if it does, these are the 3 highlights to talk about.

They are almost all good songs in my opinion. 'Maxwell' and 'Dig it' are worst. If you think Revolution 9 is bad, it says more about the listener's limitations than about the track.

I also wanted totally to agree that CTTE and PF's Dark Side of the Moon are two of the Rock genres greatest albums of all time!

2:39 imagine seeing this for the first time in 1967

What fish for buying on cd?

Masterpiece.... Close to the Edge came before Dark Side of The Moon so Yes' Eclipse was first.

Rolling Stone's lists are always garbage. That is all.

It’s hard to not call this the greatest prog album of all time

They are the best, what can I say. Interesting how when Yes fans say what their fave album is, a lot say CTTE, but many including me say Going For The One, many say Relayer, some, including Billy Sherwood say Tales, and some people who prefer less proggy stuff say The Yes Album, an some even say 90125 or Talk.

There’s no point in trying to analyze the lyrics of this album

OK, I just wanted to mention a couple of misnomers that you stated. I've heard from a source that it was EDDIE OFFORD'S voice at the start of AND YOU & I. Also nowhere will you find that KHATRU is a Yemeni word or Jon saying that. When asked in an interview, Jon said, "AS YOU WISH", meaning "Interpret it as you wish". Unfortunately, since someone put that on Wikipedia or somewhere, everybody like you keeps repeating it. Finally BS about TALES. TFTO is absolute perfection. Sorry that some dont have the patience and will never understand it. Otherwise great REVIEW. and for sure, SIBERIAN is an awesome quintessential YES masterpiece! ❤
