YESSONGS LIVE
The mighty December 15th 1972 show played live in its enterity.

On May 18th 1973, Yes released on a triple vinyl edition, their first live album. Yessongs is still today, after more than 35 years, a collection of the best tunes of the English band: Hearth of the Sunrise, And You and I, the pirotecnic Starship Trooper, the majestic Close to the Edge, the title track of the album that Yes were touring in 1972 during the Yessongs shows.

But fame and fortune of Yessongs are linked as well to the film that was shot during the London Rainbow Theatre show on December 15th 1972 and screened in the cinemas while the album was released. The line up on stage is the "classic Yes line up": Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman (wearing his long cloak) and the newcomer Alan White, thrown in to replaceBill Bruford, headed to Robert Fripp's King Crimson.

Yessongs - Live is a production dedicated to all the fans of the band and to the progressive rock enthusiastics, that aims to recreate the magic of that show in its enterity, using only vintage instruments:
