Yessongs Full Concert: Live Performances from Yes' Close to the Edge Tour
Back in December 1972, when Yes was rocking audiences as part of their "Close to the Edge" tour, they had just released the critically acclaimed album "Fragile" a year earlier, in 1971. This album solidified their place in the progressive rock scene, with iconic tracks like "Roundabout" and "Long Distance Runaround." The live recording featured in "Yessongs," a concert film released in 1975, showcased their powerful performances during a pivotal time in their career. What’s fascinating is that "Yessongs" not only captured the essence of their live shows but also highlighted the band’s intricate musicianship, setting a high bar for future progressive rock concerts. The film features stunning visuals and a lineup that includes the legendary Rick Wakeman on keyboards, who later became known for his flashy on-stage presence and elaborate setups. So, if you’re diving into this recording, you’re not just witnessing a concert; you're experiencing a significant moment in rock history!
