Yes

In March 1996, Yes was basking in the glow of their "Keys to Ascension" project, a dual album featuring both a studio record and a live recording. Just before this San Luis Obispo performance, the band had released "Keys to Ascension 1," which included the track “And You and I,” showcasing their ethereal blend of progressive rock and intricate musicianship. This live recording demonstrates Yes's ability to captivate audiences with their stellar live arrangements and tight harmonies, even years into their career. Interestingly, this period marked a renaissance for Yes, as they were reconnecting with both old fans and a new generation, supported by a lineup that included original members like Jon Anderson and Steve Howe. It's a testament to their enduring appeal, underscoring how vital live performances are in the band’s DNA. If you catch that performance, you’ll feel the energy—and perhaps get a sense of how the band's legacy continues to resonate!
