Yes

Ah, Yes! A band that’s been bending sounds and expectations since the late ‘60s. By the time they hit the stage in Amsterdam on November 22, 2001, they were celebrating a new chapter in their storied career. Just before this live performance, the band had released the studio album *Magnification* in 2001, which was their first album not featuring long-time keyboardist Rick Wakeman. Instead, they embraced a symphonic sound, backed by an orchestra—a bit of a bold move, wouldn’t you say? The Amsterdam show highlights this shift beautifully, as they were joined by the European Festival Orchestra, adding a rich layer to their intricate compositions. Notably, *Close to the Edge*, performed in this concert, is a fan-favorite from their classic era, showcasing how they’ve seamlessly blended their classic hits with newer, experimental sounds. It’s a reminder of their enduring influence and ability to keep fans entranced, even decades into their journey.
