Yes/PA,USA 1987

This is truly an emotional film. If you are a long-time fan, this masterpiece video will make you feel hot. Let’s leave aside what is so emotional for now and start with an overview. This work is a full pro shot of the “BIG GENERATOR TOUR 1987-1988”. This is a video work that allows you to fully enjoy YES, who returned to the forefront of the 1980s rock scene with the talented Trevor Rabin. This work was filmed at the “Philadelphia performance on November 29, 1987”. It is the 10th concert, which is also the beginning of the “BIG GENERATOR TOUR”. The full video of “90125 YES” is valuable, but this work is a magnificent multi-camera pro shot. The quality that seems to be the TV broadcast at that time is hard to say “can be released on an official DVD”, but the master freshness is wonderful, and there is almost no dubbing marks or deterioration. You can witness the most glamorous stage in YES history as it was at the time. In fact, this video was shocking. In fact, it first appeared about 10 years ago under the title “PHILADELPHIA 1987”, but the enthusiasts were already in a frenzy. Even the specialist magazines at the time were full of praise, with comments such as “an unprecedented harvest,” “you can experience the true heyday of Yes,” “a moving video that makes you realize that they are a world-class band with hit songs,” and “such a wonderful video should be sold for 10,000 yen.” I would be grateful if I could take you up on your offer and sell it for 10,000 yen (bitter smile), but I certainly understand the desire to say so. The “Wachovia Spectrum,” where the event took place, can accommodate about 18,000 people. It is a large venue that is about twice the size of the Nippon Budokan, but the space is about to burst. I can still understand the single hits such as “Owner Of A Lonely Heart” and “Changes,” but what’s surprising is that even the classics are a big hit. The part after the performance of “Heart Of The Sunrise” is especially must-see. The roaring and cheering was so intense that the show could not proceed. Normally, John Anderson would have made a witty comment and moved on to the next song, but he was so stunned by the enthusiasm that he could not speak. He sat down with Rabin and Chris Squire, overwhelmed with emotion, and could only stare at the sea of ​​applause. In magazine interviews, he is often asked, “When do you realize you have succeeded?” and this is the exact moment when he realized it. There are also plenty of other delicious songs, such as “Almost Like Love,” which was only available in the early days of the tour, and “Shoot High Aim Low,” “Holy Lamb,” and “Love Will Find A Way,” which were unique to that time. The charm of the “BIG GENERATOR TOUR 1987-1988,” which was pop, refreshing, and yet highly technical, can be enjoyed in the full show. However, what is most wonderful is the appearance of the members savoring their success with their whole bodies. Maybe you don’t like “90125 YES” very much, reading this nonsense. But even so, just seeing John and Chris singing and playing with joy should warm your heart. The “BIG GENERATOR TOUR” must have been the highlight of their lives. Not only is the music great, but it’s also an emotional one that gives you “more than that”. Please enjoy it to the fullest. Live at Spectrum Arena, Philadelphia, PA.
