Aside from wondering how much is him and how much effects, I'd say it's a fine cover of one of my fave Yes songs.

I think he did a really nice job covering this old Yes classic. I really like the arrangement.

that is very nice,indeed,and a pleasant surprise. as yes themselves are wont to do with covers,he made the song his own....

I liked it. It feels unfinished in the sense that there is no "All Good People" but that's how it is.

Otherwise, the bass playing and the kind of backing vocals remind me a lot of Deseo - Isn't the bass player the same? Eduardo del Signore? Sounds a lot like his acoustic tone. Also I detect a female voice (thus not Jon) that sounds a lot like Deseo - Maybe one of the Andersons (Deborah?) The names now escape me.
