Product Description
Yes is one of the most innovative and successful rock bands of all time with a career that now spans five decades. In 2003 the band made their first appearance at the Montreux Festival despite having a long association with the town itself (they recorded there frequently in the seventies). It was a triumphant night and is regarded by both the band members and fans as probably the finest Yes gig ever to be filmed. It has been much in demand and is now finally cleared for release.Tracklisting:1) Siberian Khatru2) Magnification3) Don't Kill The Whale4) In The Presence Of5) We Have Heaven6) South Side Of The Sky7) And You And I8) To Be Over9) Clap10) Show Me11) Rick Wakeman Solo Medley12) Heart Of The Sunrise13) Long Distance Runaround14) The Fish15) Awaken16) I've Seen All Good People17) RoundaboutFormat: DVD AUDIO Genre: MUSIC DVD/CONCERTS UPC: 801213914197 Manufacturer No: 39141-9

 Yes! - Yes, go ahead and buy it. September 21, 2008
I rented the Blu-Ray from netflix three days ago and now I bought one here at Amazon. A great addition to your musical BR collection. The PQ and AQ are excellent. The audio is excellent, crisp, clear and precise. The video is great too, well lit(stage), sharp, clear with no visible compression artifacts or blocking. Colors are vivid but not pushy. It's a pleasure to watch. I still have my ticket stubs from the "In The Round" show at MSG.
Yes, I am that old......errr,
Impeccable DVD quality and FLAWLESS show! A 'must own'! September 19, 2008
This ecstatic concert DVD literally brought tears to my eyes! I was (and still am) a huge YES fan in the 70's and 80's, but like many other middle aged, 'aging rockers', my life has been diverted by marriage and children. I don't nearly have the time anymore to devote to my guitar playing and/or movies, concerts, hobbies, etc. So when I walked into a Borders to buy a coffee and newspaper, seeing this DVD on display was an impulse purchase. After viewing it, even with a screaming, rambunctious 3 year old providing backround noise, I can say that it was the best impulse purchase i've ever made! Visually and sonically, the DVD is flawless. THIS IS HOW A CONCERT DVD SHOULD BE DONE!!! The camera angles and edits are perfect, as is the lighting and sonics. The performance itself was CLOCKWORK, and everyone from one of the all-time classic YES lineups were there (Anderson, Howe, Squire, Wakeman, White) in 'top form' and then some. It was amazing to see how these rock gods look fairly recently (2003), and they have aged well. The playing/performance may as well be out of the seventies, they were so tight vocally and instrumentally. This is easily one of the best concert DVD's i've ever seen, and I know i've got at least 200 in my collection. You've GOT TO get this one for your collection. YES is a seminal and legendary prog/art/rock band, and this live performance captures their essence perfectly! LONG LIVE YES!
An outstanding evening of Yes Music September 13, 2008
Here we have the third best Yes concert released to date, after The Symphonic Music of Yes and their 35th Anniversary Concert - Songs from Tsongas.
In the Montreux concert Yes provides hours of enjoyment on this two CD set.
Steve Howe, Rick Wakemen, Chris Squire, Alan White and Jon Anderson are all in fine form.
What is totally amazing about Yes is the synergy of their combined talents exceeds any musical group past or present.
The concert is basically in three parts, with a mix of classic and new releases. The group opens with some electric fare, and then performs acoustically before closing with some of their best works.
Whether you have been tuned into Yes for decades, or have recently discovered their body of works - all will enjoy this concert.
 The is not a good performance August 25, 2008

I thought this performance was lame and fell way short of my expectations. I am not a true Yes fan but I own the Fragile album and think it is very good. The lead singers voice is very week and sounds off key, the bass solo had no substance, the music has no energy, and the music seems a little slow. I am glad I test drove this album on Netflix before getting this one.
Over 2 hours of Yes in Concert At Montreux 2003 on Blu-Ray baby!!! August 11, 2008
What else can I say,I love Yes and I love Blu-Ray,so this was a no brainer type of purchase for me,this Blu Ray Disc contains a complete Yes concert Live at The Montreux Jazz Festival in 2003,and the lineup(Jon Anderson,Steve Howe,Alan White,Chris Squire and Rick Wakeman)are in top from here!!! They play a lot of the classic material:And You and I,Heart of the Sunrise,Don't Kill The Whale,I've Seen All Good People,Long Distance Runaround/The Fish,and of course Roundabout,and a many more,over 2 hours baby!!! If you have a Blu Ray player and like Yes than this is a great purchase,but don't worry it's also available on standard DVD too!!! I actually got my Blu-Ray Disc brand new for less than the DVD!!! Two thumbs up!!! A+
