Yes

Back in June 1979, Yes was riding the wave of their album "Going for the One," which had been released just a year earlier. This album marked a significant transition for the band, bringing them back to their classic sound after experimenting with more progressive elements in their previous works. The live performance captured at the Spectrum in Philadelphia showcases the band during a notable period in their career, particularly as it highlights drummer Alan White's dynamic capabilities, which were a focal point during the concert. While the recording only features a snippet of a full set, it reflects the energy and intricate musicianship that Yes had cultivated by this time. Interestingly, this was also a time of fluctuating lineup dynamics for the band, but they managed to retain their iconic sound, thrilling dedicated fans while drawing in new listeners. Can you imagine the electric atmosphere in the air that night? It must have been a truly unforgettable experience!
