Yes

Back in June 1976, when Yes took the stage at Roosevelt Stadium, the band was riding high on the success of their album "Relayer," which came out in 1974. This was a pivotal time for the group, showcasing their progressive rock flair and remarkable musicianship, especially with the ethereal sound textures that became their signature. Their impressive encore performance of the Beatles' "I'm Down" certainly came as a delightful surprise, melding their intricate arrangements with the raw energy of classic rock. What’s fascinating is how Yes often incorporated unexpected covers into their live shows, bridging generations of music and resonating with fans new and old. This concert was part of a larger tour that displayed their transformative live abilities, which were critical to their reputation, immersing audiences in a vibrant world where creativity knew no bounds. After that night, they continued to evolve, laying the groundwork for future masterpieces.
