Taking a recent trend to a new level, Yes will perform three of their classic albums in their entirety—all in one concert—on a special tour in 2013. On each night of their upcoming tour, the prog-rock heroes will perform 1971’s The Yes Album, 1972’s Close to the Edge and 1977’s Going For the One in their entirety. The multi-platinum progressive rock band— which currently features bassist Chris Squire, guitarist Steve Howe, drummer Alan White, keyboardist Geoff Downes and singer Jon Davison—will kick off the North American tour March 1 and bring things to a close on April 12 in Detroit. The tour will mark the first time since 1973 that Yes have performed an album onstage in its entirety.
