Yes - Live In Detroit: Full Concert at Joe Louis Arena

Venue: Joe Louis Arena Location: Detroit, Michigan, United States Date: March 4, 1984

In March 1984, when Yes performed at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, they were riding the wave of their commercial resurgence thanks to the album *90125*. Released in late 1983, this album marked a significant transition for the band, showcasing a more radio-friendly sound with hits like "Owner of a Lonely Heart." It was fascinating to see how Yes adapted their progressive rock roots to fit the evolving landscape of the '80s, appealing to a broader audience while still delivering their signature musicianship. The Detroit concert was the fourth show on the *90125 Tour*, where the band was fully embracing this new chapter, blending older fan-favorite pieces with fresh tracks. This tour not only highlighted their remarkable versatility but also established Yes as a powerful force in rock during that period, capturing the excitement of a band reinventing itself and engaging with a new generation of fans.
