Fantastic!

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

...don't expect CD quality sound - its AWFUL ! only came here to check if it wasn't my copy that was so bad.

When the Goddess was in motion upon the face of the Earth, the young men who vowed to serve her Divine Will as Agents of Consciousness were blessed by her and elevated to Wizards. And then she let loose upon them the Muse; she came into the flesh incarnated as Music. She encarnalized as both a means and a service; a source of inSpiration; a fruit of love's labour and as a thoroughly transformative experience.They generated music woven by the Elements, cast it into Liberating Spells that permeated through both the established social order and the underground: the musical landscapes they painted, the holographic aural artifacts they gave birth to were at once alive; holistic and ultra-specific; combined the familiar with the utterly alien; blended Emotion, Motion and the Logos. These acted upon us as the universal harmonic keys whose indispensable value transported us en masse during Mass to other dimensions of existence where we repeatedly find ourselves again reborn as Cosmic Beings, as members of La Raza Cosmica, the homeward bound orphaned children of our Sacred Lady of Space and the Mother of All Matter who touched down at Guadalupe and whose perpetuity fills the illusory emptiness between quanta, planets and microseconds, generates Gravity, and whose Divine Love is the medium of both electromagnetic and four-dimensional transtemporal Light."Then", they said, "Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space, He turned around and pointed, revealing all the human race. I shook my head and smiled a whisper, knowing all about the place. On the hill we viewed the silence of the valley, Called to witness cycles only of the past. And we reach all this with movements in between the said remark.Close to the edge, down by the river. Down at the end, round by the corner. Seasons will pass you by, Now that it's all over and done, Called to the seed, right to the sun. Now that you find, now that you're whole. Seasons will pass you by, I get up, I get down. I get up, I get down. I get up, I get down. I get up."

Despite it's rather brief running time (only about 72 minutes),this film will delight Yes fans (especially the ones that were subjected to their lesser material from 1980,onwards). This rock & roll concert film (or rock doc,as they are now being called) was filmed on their 1972, 'Close To The Edge' tour, before Rick Wakeman decided to step down from the band (and would be replaced by Swiss keyboard wizard,Patrick Moraz),and just as Alan White (ex Plastic Ono Band drummer)joined. The band snorts fire through several of their more familiar anthems (including one of the best versions of 'Close to the edge' I've ever seen/heard). I'm told that it was originally presented in four track stereophonic sound (I was not so lucky to have seen it in it's original release---I first saw it on the USA Network's 'Night Flight' program back in the early 1980's). Perhaps if there is any extra footage from that concert,maybe one day it will be made available on a DVD/Blue Ray extended version. Not rated by the MPAA, but contains nothing to offend.

I love the live album, but the video version sounds much worse. In fact, it almost like a bootleg. It does seem to sound better when they play Close to the Edge. Either that, or you get used to it by that point or the music and performance is so great you forget how bad the sound quality is.I really wish they recorded more from the soundboard. I don't think Yes ever sounded as good as they did in the 70s, in particular this tour. So much energy and power, and of course, the music is excellent. It's worth watching for that reason alone. But it may take awhile to get past the poor sound quality.The band performs: I've Seen All Good People Clap And You And I Close to the Edge Excerpts from "The Six Wives of Henry VIII" Roundabout Yours Is No Disgrace Wurm
