Yes concert review
Sheffield City Hall in Sheffield, UK
Tue, 03 May 2016

Well I went to the Yes gig last night in Sheffield, with some trepidation I might add as it's my first without Anderson and Squire and first with Downes (I had seen them a few times with Wakeman and a different keys player whose surname I forget, first name Igor if memory serves)

I've never been one for insisting on the original personnel, it's more about how the music makes me feel in the moment and it's execution.

I was ready to be critical but to be honest it exceeded expectation, Davison is a fine vocalist though in contrast he makes Anderson sound masculine. Billy Sherwood, who from a distance now resembles Chris Squire, isn't quite the vocalist Squire was and the presence of his bass on the more ornate parts were lacking but his interpretations of the main functional parts were fine. There were a few shaky bits (We Have Heaven, Five percent for Nothing ) Highlights:- (Machine Massiah, Heart of the Sunrise)
I'm just being critical, apart from these few points a great gig and a faithful reproduction of the tracks. Julian Vidal
