Yes Live Performance of 'Machine Messiah' at House of Blues, Houston
In 2010, Yes was in a period of revitalization, having just released the album *Fly from Here* the year before. *Fly from Here* marked their first studio album in nearly a decade, showcasing a fresh collaboration with producer Trevor Horn—who had previously worked with them on their seminal album *90125*. This live recording, captured at the House of Blues in Houston on February 24, 2010, features the song "Machine Messiah" from the band's 1980 album *Drama*. It’s fascinating to think how this particular performance served as a bridge between different eras of Yes, highlighting Oliver Wakeman’s keyboard work alongside legendary guitarist Steve Howe and bassist Chris Squire. The dynamic energy of this lineup resonates strongly, reminding us how Yes has always adapted and evolved, captivating fans both old and new. It's moments like these that continue to keep the essence of progressive rock alive.
