YES - Rockpop In Concert 1984 Full Concert featuring Owner Of A Lonely Heart

Venue: Sporthalle Location: Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany Date: June 21, 1984

In June 1984, Yes was in a transitional phase of their career, marked by the release of the album "90125" the previous year. This album was significant as it introduced a more mainstream, pop-oriented sound and featured the hit single "Owner of a Lonely Heart," which became their most successful track. The live recording from the Westfalenhalle in Dortmund showcases the band's performance of songs from this album, highlighting their adaptation to the 1980s music landscape. Notably, "90125" was produced by Trevor Horn, who played a crucial role in reshaping their sound, incorporating elements of new wave and synth-pop. This concert is part of a tour that reinforced the band's resurgence in popularity after several years of lineup changes and evolving musical styles. The performance reflects Yes's ability to connect with both longtime fans and a new audience during a pivotal moment in their history.
