YES - BIG GENERATOR COMPLETE TOUR 1987-1988 

My first Yes concert, February 1988 at the Nassau Coliseum. It was my birthday present from my Dad. My brother and me, a stretch limo, and Billy Joel was on the radio playing Big Shot. It was the BIG tour. Yes was very late and they showed some very strange Popeye cartoons. I was 16 and my brother was on mescalin, trippin' sky. Not me, just needed the music. The band comes on, Morning daydream, midnight fever. I was floored. I was just getting into Yes, had no idea of the history beyond 90125 with the exception of All Good People at 4 years old. Something about the vocals, something hit me. They played and played like they were some forth dimension dream. They were gods up there, bringing forth a realm of sound that couldn't be duplicated. Then they started to play the classics. Chris, HOTS, like a dream that I never dared to dream. Fire, ice, ethereal vocals, stops and starts, thunder and powerful imagery. I was just 16 and fell in love....with music.

Saw this concert and could never get over how great Trevor Rabin’s lead guitar SOARED in this version. GUITAR HERO

The sound quality is brilliant. Shame no vid but this is really nice ❤ Final Eyes and I’m Running are up there with my all-time fave Yes songs 😊

By the time they played in Philadelphia where I saw them, they had already dropped “I’m Running” from the set list. I would have loved to have seen that one performed live. Thanks for posting this!

The BEST band on this planet!!! FOREVER YES!!!

1975 and 1976 in central Indiana was able to see, photograph and personally meet YES. awesome shows!❤

This is a most epic and gorgeous concert. This version of "And You and I" is my favorite one!!!

Good for you.

I never thought of it this way until now, but Yes reformed when The Police broke up . Most groups don’t get second chances, but thankfully Yes did !

It's wild hearing Heart of the Sunrise framed by Hold On and Big Generator. And they're killing it! Awesome.

Iv'e loved this band for years. Caught this tour in Nashville.

My first concert ever in the USA, MAGICAL !!!! Thanks for posting, The Summit, Houston TX, We drove 16 hours from Mexico City...

Yes was my first concert ever. Saw them at the Tallahassee Civic Center when I went to FSU. Blown away. Opened my ears/mind up to real music.

This version of Yes skipped by me in the 1980's, I was too busy trying to survive my 20's. But now I can listen to this and indulge in this bands different versions, thank you for posting this historic compilation. Truely unique and amazing.

A lot of really good performances were heard only on this tour -- this is a great way for people to hear them again. And a good thing the Omaha recording exists for those few that were quickly dropped.

Why doesn't Jon Anderson ever reference Tony's musicianship when he introduces him? He does it for everyone else.

Saw this concert in Philly. It was amazing. Lights went out and pot smoke billowed up everywhere. I'm so glad I got to see them in the 80's.

Buenisimos, para mi gusto estan dentro de los 5 mejores grupos a nivel mundial

I got lucky enough to work that night at the Summit. It was great.

YES!

Great tour ! Got to hang out with all of em after the Dallas gig..

Was at the Sun dome in Tampa.....awesome!

sheer Classic❤

Saw the Buffalo, NY show. Amazing.

What a Band❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 YES Forever 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤!!!

jon was soft-spoken.

Great work!!!

This is a great collection of Big Gen 1988 songs. Trevor simply RIPS through the solo guitar part in "Yours is no disgrace." I saw 2 Big Gen shows November 29th ,1987 ( or 88 LOL will double check year- turning into Ye old codger Yes fan! The other show I saw was the last or almost last- YES at Stabler Arena, Bethlehem, Pa. My shows - an earlier Houston show plus, compared to these recordings well, these are just plajn

wow

i've seen all good people trim their hedge each day. LOL

Was at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin!

Got to see this tour,Charlotte, n.c.

I'm sure that's Houston TX 1988 at the Summit , I was there , just fantastic !!

I Saw a show in Detroit,MI on this tour.

Did their playlist vary from show to show during this tour? It was the first time I got to seem them. Killer tour.

1:19:12

How many versions of yes have they been,I lost count,but great band.

beyond brutal

Working for the Yankee Dollar. 😢

By any chance is there a lossless version of this compilation we could download somewhere?

Was Chris having issues with his bass on Owner of a Lonely Heart? It keeps cutting in and out

Great playlist comprised of what I guess was your intent to combine the best performances from the tour. Rhythm of love sounds like Wakeman was playing keyboards, however he rejoined Yes for the Union tour in '91. I'm assuming that you have the correct date for Rhythm of Love since it was performed on the big generator tour as well. I don't mind not having the corresponding videos- I stream it in my car or listen at home for background music. But it's also great seeing live footage. Not the same experience as being there, but when listening on a home theatre (someday?) - it's the next best thing. Save money, avoid crowds- you know how that can bum you out sometimes!

OMG PUT ALL YOUR FREAKING COMMERCIALS AT THE BEGINNING, DON'T INTERRUPT FLOW OF THE CONCERT.
