Yes

In the summer of 1979, Yes was riding high on the wave of their album "Tormato," which had been released just about a year earlier. This concert, captured live at the Spectrum in Philadelphia, showcases the band during a transitional period, as they were experimenting with sound while also navigating the complexities of their lineup—Rick Wakeman's temporary departure and Tony Kaye's return added layers of intrigue. The performance features "Circus of Heaven," a track that beautifully melds the band's signature symphonic rock with thoughtful lyrics, making it a standout during their set. One interesting tidbit: the concert was performed “in the round,” with a rotating stage that provided an immersive experience for fans. Just imagine—the excitement of being part of a moving performance, feeling the energy from all angles! It's a testament to Yes's adventurous spirit, always willing to innovate and captivate their audience, even as they were evolving their sound. This concert really reflects a pivotal moment in their storied career.
