Yes. Me too. I've seen these guys live about a dozen times, one of my all-time favorites. I remember my first impression of them live, when I was about 12-13 years old - "wow, they sound just like they do on the LP". Not a very sophisticated assessment but, hey, like I said, I must have been around 12-13. I had seen plenty of bands by then (and since then) who simply cannot play live what they record in the studio. IMHO, Yes were one of the most talented bands I've ever seen. And, Yes, if I were to be so audacious as to pronounce anyone as a "best guitarist of all time", Steve Howe would make my final two or three. He does have a somewhat unfair advantage, though - look at those spidey fingers...
