Yes - Close To The Edge Live in West Palm Beach, Full Concert

Venue: Coral Sky Amphitheatre Location: West Palm Beach, Florida, United States Date: August 8, 1998

In August 1998, Yes took the stage at the Coral Sky Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach, delivering a mesmerizing live rendition of "Close to the Edge." At this point in their career, they had recently released the album *The Ladder* in 1999, which found the band exploring fresh sounds while still deeply rooted in their progressive rock roots. This live recording showcases the classic lineup, including the legendary Jon Anderson and the iconic Steve Howe, blending their intricate musicianship with crowd-pleasing energy. It’s fascinating to note that “Close to the Edge,” originally from their 1972 album of the same name, remains a cornerstone of their catalog, often celebrated for its complex structure and immersive storytelling. The live performance captured in this video highlights not just their enduring legacy, but also how even in the late '90s, Yes continued to captivate audiences with their remarkable ability to evolve while staying true to their art.
