YES - Heart of the Sunrise - UNION Tour 1991
- This is only for the Die Hard Classic Rock Fans, like me. Most have heard of the band Yes. They know a few of the hits, that you hear on the radio. I've been a huge Yes fan for years. Especially the early 70s albums, The Yes Album (1971) Fragile (1971) Close to the Edge (1972). They are not only incredible musicians, singers, and songwriters. They are true composers, artists, poets, and impressionists. Their concerts are a mind-blowing musical experience.
I've seen them in concert many times over the years. The most memorable, I believe, was a concert, in the late 70s. It was at a very small venue called the Oakdale Musical Theater, in Wallingford, CT. Since that time, this theater has been rebuilt, enlarged, and has a more traditional medium-sized concert hall layout. Still not too big and a great place to see a concert. I still go often. Back in the late 70s though, this venue seated about 3500 people and it was a round Circus Tent. Seats were in a circle. The Stage was round, in the center, and revolved slowly. This tour was the classic Yes Line-Up. It also had an incredible Laser Light Show.
I wish I could find some concert videos from that era. Here is a video that I did find, that is a little later. It is still the full Classic Yes Line-Up. This Tune is a True Yes Fan concert favorite. Many of you may not be familiar with it. It was not a big radio hit.
Crank it up, watch the whole video, and please comment on the blog. Let me know if you enjoyed it.
