Filmed live at London's Rainbow Theatre in December 1972, the innovative group Yes performs its progressive rock symphonies -- epic compositions that influenced new trends in contemporary music.

This unique concert video of Yes was filmed during their record-breaking tour and features the talents of the five original band members.

Titles performed include "Close to the Edge," "All Good People," and "Roundabout."
