Overview[]

Like It Is: Yes at the Bristol Hippodrome is a partial recording of the Yes show on 11 May 2014 at the Bristol Hippodrome as a part of their 2013–14 Three Album Tour. The recording features only two of the albums, Going for the One (1977) and The Yes Album (1971) played live in their entirety.^[1]^[2] Thus, the Close to the Edge album is missing.

It is the band's first live album featuring lead vocalist Jon Davison and keyboardist Geoff Downes in the band's line-up. Downes previously featured on three tracks of the 3-CD set The Word Is Live, released in 2005.

A sequel, titled Like It Is: Yes at the Mesa Arts Center and featuring the albums Close to the Edge and Fragile was released in July 2015.
