Yes

As Yes took the stage at Long Beach Arena on June 23, 1975, they were deep into their "Relayer" tour, following the release of the groundbreaking album "Relayer" just a few months prior, in November 1974. This album marked a significant shift for the band, featuring the innovative keyboard work of Patrick Moraz, who had joined after the departure of Rick Wakeman. The “Relayer” period showcased Yes's experimental edge, blending jazz influences and intricate compositions. Interestingly, during this show, the band was coming off a time of intense growth, not only musically but also in their fan base, as they pushed the boundaries of progressive rock. The setlist likely included epic tracks like "The Gates of Delirium," which opened up new sonic landscapes, reflecting their bold artistic vision. Watching this performance immerses you in an era where Yes was really redefining what a live concert experience could be—truly a testament to their creativity and musicianship at the peak of their powers.
